FIFA Blasts Brazil Over 2014 Deadlines

FIFA is criticizing Brazil for already being behind on some 2014 World Cup preparation deadlines.

"It's incredible how late Brazil is, and I'm talking about all the stadiums. A lot of deadlines have passed and nothing has happened. Brazil is not on the right path," [said FIFA General Secretary Jerome Valcke].

..."It's necessary to make the most of the time available. We don't want a rushed World Cup, with everything done at the last minute."
