RETURNS TO THE LAND
OF FOOTBALL
In 2014, the biggest event in world football will
return to its spiritual home. Sixty-four years after
it rst hosted a FIFA World Cup, Brazil will once
again stage the showpiece event. With a record
ve world titles to its name and the distinction
of being the only country to have played in all
19 previous editions of the tournament, Brazil is
counting down the days until the participating
nations and their fans arrive on its shores.
Six of the 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil stadiums
have already been inaugurated and were used
during the FIFA Confederations Cup 2013, namely
those in Belo Horizonte, Braslia, Fortaleza, Recife,
Rio de Janeiro and Salvador. Among their number
is the legendary Maracan in Rio, where the nal
will be played in 2014. Six other FIFA World Cup
venues are being completed in Cuiab, Curitiba,
Manaus, Natal, Porto Alegre and Brazils biggest
city, So Paulo, with the latters Arena de So
Paulo set to stage the opening match involving
the hosts on 12 June.
The host cities are located across the countrys ve regions,
with each scheduled to stage at least four games at Brazil 2014.
Participating teams, members of the media and fans travelling
to Brazil will all discover an abundance of avours, sounds and
customs in one of the most culturally diverse nations on the planet.
Over three million tickets will go on sale exclusively through
FIFA.com, the ofcial site for the event, from 20 August 2013. All
of the host cities will give supporters the chance to experience the
joy and hospitality that Brazil has to offer at the FIFA Fan Fests.
Located at symbolic venues in the 12 cities that will stage games
in the FIFA World Cup, they will be open from the rst day of
tournament to the last, ensuring that Brazilians
and visitors alike are All in one rhythm,
to use the words of the ofcial
slogan of Brazil 2014.

Among Brazils rst planned cities and regularly
voted one of the Latin American metropolises
with the best quality of life, Belo Horizonte
sprung up in the shadow of the Serra do Curral
and today is famed for its wide tree-lined avenues
and architectural wonders such as the Pampulha
complex and Liberty Square. It is the capital of the
state of Minas Gerais, the second most populous
in Brazil.
Population: 2,395,785
Belo Horizonte
Estdio Mineiro
A historical venue in Brazilian
football and home of
multiple national champions
Atltico Mineiro and Cruzeiro,
the Estdio Mineiro underwent
a complete refurbishment prior
to hosting three xtures at the FIFA
Confederations Cup 2013. The venue is set to
stage six more at the 2014 FIFA World Cup,
including one semi-nal. Sustainability principles
were at the core of the modernisation project,
including the capture and re-use of rainwater at
the venue.

Cuiab lies at a privileged focal point for tourists,
in a part of Brazil where three of the countrys
most important characteristic ecosystems meet:
the Cerrado, the Pantanal wetlands and the
Amazon. With nature featuring prominently, it is
hardly surprising that the capital of Mato Grosso
state has earned the nickname of the Green
City.
Estdio Nacional
As you would expect in a city at the vanguard of
architecture and design, the Estdio Nacional will
be one of the most imposing not to mention the
second-largest venues at the 2014 FIFA World
Cup Brazil. The stadium was the venue for the
opening game of the FIFA Confederations Cup
2013 and will host seven xtures at Brazil 2014.
Capacity: 70,064
Cuiab
Braslia
Arena Pantanal
Purpose-built for Brazil 2014, the
Arena Pantanal will host four games
at the showpiece event. Given that the stadium
borders the ora- and fauna-rich region that is
the Pantanal, it is no surprise that sustainability
was a central theme of the construction and
maintenance of the new arena from its very
conception.
Capacity: 42,968
Considered one of the countrys most
architecturally avant-garde cities, Braslia is home
to some of Brazils most distinctive structures,
including the Metropolitan Cathedral, the
Juscelino Kubitschek Bridge and the buildings
of the National Congress. Many of the striking
edices in the new capital were designed by
Oscar Niemeyer. Thanks to its unique architecture,
Braslia is the only city in the world built in the
20
th
century to have been declared a UNESCO
World Heritage Site.
7
Curitiba is the perfect example of what a city can become through
managed and responsible development and economic growth.
The Paran state capital made sure it kept its urban spaces green,
something reected by the Tangu and Barigi parks and the citys
Botanical Gardens. Other city attractions include the pera de
Arame (known in English as the Wire Opera House because of its
shell of glass and steel tubing) and the Oscar Niemeyer Museum,
designed by the famous architect himself.
Arena da Baixada
Since its inauguration in June 1999, the Estdio Joaquim Amrico
Guimares known as the Arena da Baixada has enjoyed the
reputation of being one of Brazils most modern and well-appointed
stadiums. Following a series of renovations, the stadium will host
four xtures at Brazil 2014.
Capacity: 41,456
Curitiba
With 34 kilometres of stunning beaches, Fortaleza is one of the
main tourist destinations of Brazils north-east region. As well
as its blissful coastline, the city is also a major economic hub.
Capital of Cear state, the city has invested heavily in tourism
infrastructure for decades, including new attractions such as
the Centro Drago do Mar de Arte e Cultura (Sea Dragon Art
and Culture Centre) and Beach Park, Brazils largest water
park.
Estdio Castelo
Built in 1973 and ofcially known as the Estdio Governador Plcido
Aderaldo Castelo, the Castelo has been entirely renovated, enabling
it to comfortably host three matches at the FIFA Confederations
Cup 2013 and another six at the 2014 FIFA World Cup.
Capacity: 64,846
Fortaleza
Manaus, capital of Amazonas state, is the gateway to
the biggest tropical habitat on the planet: the Amazon
rainforest. The conuence of the dark waters of the Rio
Negro (literally, Black River) and the muddy waters of
the Rio Solimes is one of the Amazons most majestic
spectacles and one of the citys biggest attractions.
Arena Amaznia
With a prime location in the heart of the largest continuous
expanse of forest in the world, the Arena Amaznia, formerly
known as the Estdio Vivaldo, will host four group-stage
games during the 2014 FIFA World Cup.
Capacity: 42,374
Manaus
Having the FIFA World Cup in Brazil, the land
of football, will be a unique experience and a
great way to celebrate the sport. I am looking
forward to the kick-off.

dOr winner 1998, 2000, 2003

Natal is proud to be known as the Cidade do Sol City of Sun,
mostly thanks to the tropical climate that guarantees an average
temperature of 28C and almost 300 days of sunshine a year. Natal
is also the closest South American city to Europe, which is seen as
another advantage for the citys international tourism.
Estdio das Dunas
The Estdio das Dunas does not simply take its name from the
surrounding sand dunes, which are one of the most impressive
natural attractions in the Natal region, as it also refers to the
bold undulating structure of the stadium, which mimics the ow
of the dunes. Here, fans will be able to enjoy four xtures at
Brazil 2014.

The beaches of the capital of Pernambuco state and the nearby
cities are truly impressive, especially those at Boa Viagem and,
some 70 kilometres from Recife, at Porto de Galinhas. Recife and
the surrounding areas also offer visitors a wealth of history, such
as Fort Orange on the island of Itamarac, and the historic centre
of Olinda, a UNESCO World Heritage site since 1982. Carnival
is particularly different in these two cities, with two exciting,
distinctive music styles known as frevo and maracatu. The
Galo da Madrugada (Dawn Rooster) street parade is
considered the biggest in the world, entering the
record books in 1994 when it brought together
no fewer than 1.5 million people.
Arena Pernambuco
The Arena Pernambuco, which hosted three
games during the FIFA Confederations Cup
2013 and will stage another ve during the
FIFA World Cup, will be complemented by
adjacent commercial projects aimed at driving
the economic development of Grande Recife, in
an area considered to be economically deprived.
Capacity: 44,248
Porto Alegre stands on the banks of the Lago Guaba at a point
where ve rivers converge, together making the vast Lagoa dos
Patos. From its subtropical climate meaning milder temperatures
to its cultural traditions, the capital of Rio Grande do Sul is completely
different to Brazils other state capitals. It is a place which is now home
to thousands of immigrants from Portugal, Italy, Germany and Poland.
Estdio Beira-Rio
The highlight of the transformation
undergone by the Estdio Beira-Rio
was the installation of an innovative
metallic roof, which will protect the
seats, ramps and access gates. The
remodelled venue will stage ve
xtures during Brazil 2014.
Capacity: 48,849
Recife
Porto Alegre

The incomparable natural beauty, rich history
and, most of all, the contagious joy of Cariocas
people from Rio make this city one of the
best-loved on the planet. Important local events
include the New Years Party on Copacabana
Beach and carnival on Marqus de Sapucai. This
vibrant metropolis is renowned for its picture-
postcard scenes, such as Sugarloaf Mountain
and Corcovado, atop which sits the Christ the
Redeemer statue.
Arena Fonte Nova
The newly built Arena Fonte Nova has been
faithful to its original features but has gained
a light metallic roof, as well as a panoramic
restaurant and a football museum. The capital of
Bahia state hosted three matches
in 2013 and will be the venue
for four group-stage
matches as well as a
round-of-16 game and a
quarter-nal at 2014s
showpiece event.
Capacity: 48,747
Rio de Janeiro
Salvador
Estdio do Maracan
Built for the 1950 FIFA World Cup Brazil, the
Estdio do Maracan provided the venue for
that years truly memorable deciding game
between the host nation and Uruguay, one of
the most dramatic chapters in the history of the
competition. The venue will stage seven games
at Brazil 2014 (just like the Estdio Nacional, in
Braslia), including the nal on 13 July.
Capacity: 76,804
Brazils rst capital, Salvador has a rich African
heritage dating back to the time of the slave
trade, from the circles of capoeira (a combination
of martial art and dance) to the rites of the
Candombl (an Afro-Brazilian religion). Salvadors
privileged topography is one of its most appealing
attributes, with a clear escarpment separating the
Cidade Baixa and Cidade Alta (Lower Town and
Upper Town), which are linked by the Elevador
Lacerda lift. In terms of antiquity, pride of place
goes to the Pelourinho, a historic centre famed
for its churches and colourful colonial buildings
that has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site
since 1985.
13
The nancial and commercial centre of Brazil, So Paulo is the
countrys biggest city and capital of the state bearing the same
name. So Paulo offers a plethora of cultural diversions and endless
gastronomic variety with more than 12,000 restaurants. The
Japanese district of Liberdade, Ibirapuera Park, the citys upmarket
shopping centres and the charming city centre are all worth a visit.
Arena de So Paulo
Fans of So Paulo club Corinthians who have long yearned for their
own stadium will nally get their wish in 2014 with the completion
of the Arena de So Paulo ahead of the 2014 FIFA World Cup. The
venue has been chosen to stage the opening game of Brazil 2014
as well as ve other games, including a semi-nal.
Capacity: 65,807

Facts about the FIFA World Cup
TM
T
he 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil will be
the 20
th
time the event has been held. It
rst took place in the Uruguayan capital,
Montevideo, in 1930 and included 13 countries
from three continents. The decision to create the
tournament had been taken just two years before
in Amsterdam on 26 May 1928.
T
he rst FIFA World Cup in Brazil in 1950
was an unrivalled success, with nearly three
times as many spectators as the FIFA World
Cup in France in 1938. A total of 1,045,246 people
watched the games in Brazil a record that would
stand until England 1966.
A
ll six cities that hosted the FIFA World Cup
in 1950 Belo Horizonte, Curitiba, Porto
Alegre, Recife, Rio de Janeiro and So
Paulo will do so again in 2014, but only Rios
Maracan stadium will have been used for
both events.
I
n the 19 FIFA World Cups so far, six host
countries have been crowned champions:
Uruguay (1930), Italy (1934), England (1966),
Germany FR (1974), Argentina (1978) and France
(1998), much to the delight of their home fans.
Meanwhile, Brazil (1950) and Sweden (1958) both
nished as runners-up. Chile (1962), Italy (1990)
and Germany (2006) all nished in third place.
A
national team with a foreign coach has never
won the FIFA World Cup. The 18 winning
coaches to date have all been in charge of
their home nation. Of these, Italys Vittorio Pozzo
is the only coach to have won the trophy twice,
guiding the Italians to the title in both 1934 and
1938.
O
nly once in FIFA World Cup history has
there been no European team in the nal:
in 1930 when neighbours Argentina and
Uruguay battled it out for glory in Montevideo.
Since then, there has always been a European
representative in the deciding game, including
the last two which were both all-European affairs:
Italy against France in 2006, and Spain versus
the Netherlands in 2010. In the 1950 FIFA World
Cup in Brazil
TM
, the nal was not held as a single
game, but as four-way nal round between Brazil,
Uruguay, Spain and Sweden.
F
rance has left its own marks on the history
of the FIFA World Cup. The French were
involved in the rst FIFA World Cup match,
against Mexico in 1930; Frances Lucien Laurent
scored the rst FIFA World Cup goal; Les Bleus
took part in the rst match to go to extra time,
against Austria in 1934; Frances Laurent Blanc
scored the competitions rst golden goal in

1998; and Les Bleus were also in the rst game
to be decided on penalties, against Germany FR
in the semi-nals of Spain 1982. The 1998 FIFA
World Cup
TM
in France also broke new ground as
it featured 32 countries for the rst time.
C
hosen to host the nal of Brazil 2014, the
Maracan will be only the second stadium
to have staged the nal twice together with
Mexicos Estdio Azteca.
B
razil were involved in the three FIFA World
Cup nals with the biggest winning margin,
taking the trophy in two of them. In 1958,
they defeated Sweden 5-2 before beating Italy 4-1
in 1970 at the Estdio Azteca. However, in 1998,
A Seleco were on the ipside of the coin when
they fell to a 3-0 defeat to a Zindine Zidane-
inspired France.
F
ifteen goals across three FIFA World
Cups make Ronaldo the top scorer in the
competitions history. Still active, Miroslav
Klose has hit the back of the net 14 times, equalling
the number scored by German compatriot Gerd
Mller.
The FIFA World Cup will leave a
legacy, and its not just the stadiums that will be left
for future generations. The biggest legacy will be for young
people. For the first time in many of their lives, theyll
be able to witness up close an event of this
magnitude featuring so many top players.
F
rance 1998 holds the record for the most
goals scored in a single tournament with 171
goals in 64 games. But in terms of averages,
Switzerland 1954 still leads the way with 140
goals in just 26 matches: an impressive average
of 5.38 per game.
T
o this day, 76 national sides have taken part
in at least one FIFA World Cup. Brazil is the
only country to have been present at every
edition, followed by Germany and Italy both of
whom have taken part in 17 out of a possible 19
nal tournaments.
17
CORPORATE SOCIAL
RESPONSIBILITY
T
he FIFA World Cup is the biggest single-sport event in
the world and that it has an impact on society and the
environment is indisputable. Staging such a world-class
event requires careful consideration of all aspects to ensure a
balanced approach and sustainable outcome. FIFA and the 2014
FIFA World Cup Local Organising Committee Brazil (LOC) take
this responsibility very seriously and are committed to delivering
a sustainable event in Brazil in 2014.
I
n dening a clear, ambitious yet realistic focus
for the sustainability strategy of the 2014 FIFA
World Cup Brazil, FIFA and the LOC used
internationally recognised guidelines for social
responsibility such as ISO 26000 and the Global
Reporting Initiative (GRI), drew on experiences
of social and environmental programmes from
past FIFA World Cups and considered objectives
developed by the Brazilian government. The
resulting strategy has seven key areas and
multiple activities for implementation in the lead-
up to and during the competition. Most of these
large and small activities will be implemented
in Brazil in collaboration with stakeholders from
public and private sectors as well as civil society.
CAPACITY DEVELOPMENT
FIFA and the LOC will organise workshops
on sustainable management for stadium
managers and training modules to enhance the
future employment opportunities of volunteers.
CLIMATE CHANGE
FIFA and the LOC will estimate the carbon
footprint of the tournament and develop
measures to avoid, reduce and offset its
emissions.
ANTI-DISCRIMINATION
AND FAIR PLAY
FIFA and the LOC will raise awareness of
discrimination and fair play during the
matches as part of FIFAs ongoing
efforts to ght discrimination and
promote fair play.
Responsibility for coordinating sustainability initiatives lies with FIFAs Corporate Social
Responsibility Department. Since its foundation in 2005, the department has been
developing programmes and collaborating with internal and external stakeholders to
maximise the positive and minimise the negative impact of FIFAs activities on society
and the environment.
More information and documentation available at
www.FIFA.com/csr2014
COMMUNITY SUPPORT
Numerous local organisations in
Brazil use football to tackle social
challenges. FIFA and the LOC
will support such organisations
with funding, equipment and
know-how through FIFAs well-
established Football for Hope
initiative.

FOOTBALL FOR HEALTH
B
esides developing programmes to protect
players health and ensuring that the FIFA
Anti-Doping Regulations are respected,
the FIFA Medical Assessment and Research
Centre (F-MARC) is using the educational
power of football to promote a healthy lifestyle
and improve public health. By moving from
medicine for football to football for health,
FIFA is building a better future.
11 FOR HEALTH
A FOOTBALL-BASED HEALTH
EDUCATION INITIATIVE
FIFA 11 for Health is a unique initiative in which the most prominent
players leave aside rivalry and play as one team to teach children
how to live a healthy life and avoid major health threats such as
the big three (malaria, tuberculosis, HIV) and the unhealthy trio
(unhealthy food, high-calorie drinks, physical inactivity) that leads
to obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular diseases.
The programme is a series of football-based sessions aimed at
encouraging physical activity while educating children about
healthy behaviour. It has a solid scientic background and
was developed based on an analysis of risk factors by
the World Health Organization (WHO). It consists
of 11 simple messages to reduce communicable
and non-communicable diseases, all
supported by prominent footballers such
as Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi,
Didier Drogba and Radamel Falcao.
Through football I have been able
to understand the importance of
promoting a healthy life, and
particularly a balanced diet. As
a role model for many children
around the world, Im committed
to conveying this fundamental
message, commented Radamel
Falcao.
The programme, which started in
Africa in 2009 as a legacy of the
FIFA World Cup in South Africa, is
now spreading its positive message
around the globe and a pilot project will
be launched in Brazil in 2013.
11+ A COMPLETE
WARM-UP TO PREVENT
INJURIES
21
The FIFA 11+ injury prevention programme, developed, tested
and promoted by F-MARC, is a simple, time-efcient warm-up
programme for amateur players.
The programme consists of three parts to be completed in 20
minutes, ideally before each training session. Scientic evidence
has shown that overall injuries decreased by a third and serious
injuries by half in teams using the FIFA 11+. Moreover, the more
regularly the programme was completed, the fewer injuries were
sustained.
