VOICED : Beira Rio de Porto Alegre casi pronto

Jérôme Balck, FIFA's Secretary General, visited the Beira Río stadium in Porto Alegre, praising its impressive state. The stadium, owned by Club Internacional, underwent a $140 million renovation for the 2014 World Cup. Balck's visit coincided with a funding controversy over temporary structures like media centers. Despite initial concerns, optimism grew about Porto Alegre's readiness. President Dilma Rousseff planned to inaugurate the stadium soon. Brazil still needed to complete four stadiums, with Curitiba facing the most delays. However, FIFA decided to keep Curitiba as a venue, acknowledging progress at the Arenada Baillada stadium.
