Pelé Worried About Delays In 2014 World Cup Stadium Constructions

In a visit to Mexico for promotional campaigns, former Brazilian footballer Pelé said that he was "preoccupied by the delay in 2014 World Cup stadium constructions," according to the EFE. Pelé said, "The biggest concern is that some of the construction work is running late. That is worrying. The events will not have many problems, our worry is the administration, construction, airports, hotels and accommodation." He added, "They are all running a little late. It's a big responsibility for Brazil because we will host the greatest events in sports history. Brazil must prove that, as a country, we are not only good on the field, but off the field as well" (EFE, 10/3).
