Fans celebrate after Brazil’s Fred scored against England during a friendly soccer game at the Maracana stadium, in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Sunday June 2, 2013. The game was only given the green light to go ahead after a judge overruled a previous court order which had suspended the match over concerns about the safety of the expensively-upgraded Maracana stadium. The chaos of the on-again, off-again match raises questions about Brazil’s readiness to host the Confederation Cup – which opens in two weeks – and next year’s World Cup, not to mention the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympic Games.(AP Photo/Felipe Dana)
