FIFA is such a very prominent competition. Through this, a lot of people in the world most especially the youth they are into developing their skills in soccer. It would be a great pride for Brazil to host such kind of event. They are much capable of doing so. It takes a lot of preparation most especially when it comes to the security of the athletes, the organizers, and most of all the thousand fans who will be personally around to witness the tournament. Soccer is already popular nowadays but usually the participating teams are coming from the western countries only Japan and Korea were able to be part coming from Asia.
