Iamryanstover Posted May 28, 2013 Report Share Posted May 28, 2013 Brazil's preparations for a major international soccer tournament have been hit by "human error" and heavy rain, which caused the roof of Salvador's host stadium to partially collapse. The Arena Fonte Nova is due to host three matches in the eight-nation Confederations Cup, considered a warmup for the 2014 World Cup also in Brazil, with the first to be played on June 20. But stadium administrators now face major repairs after a triangular tear appeared in one section of the roof on Monday as it buckled under the weight of rain water. 2 Weeks till the Confederations Cup starts. Its good to see that the person who was responsible for inspecting the roof caused the damage. On another note I personally Tahiti pulls off the upset. http://www.cnn.com/2013/05/28/sport/football/salvador-stadium-roof-brazil-2014/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louis Posted May 29, 2013 Report Share Posted May 29, 2013 It is funny how Tahiti managed to qualify, I watched some of the Oceania Nations Cup and the stand was a just a large hill that people sat on to watch the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
