体坛英语资讯：FIFA to publish technical reports on World Cup bids

发布时间：2016-10-20 编辑：查字典英语网小编

FIFA is expected to publish the technical reports evaluating the strengths and weaknesses of the nine bids vying to stage the 2018 and 2022 World Cups on FIFA.com on Wednesday.

The reports, which originally have been scheduled to be published by mid-October, are compiled by FIFA's World Cup bid inspection team who visited the bidding nations over the summer to scrutinise all aspects of their World Cup plans.

With only 15 days to go before the Dec. 2 vote, the evaluation reports will reveal which bids are more technically better prepared to host the 2018 and 2022 World Cups.

The England bid has been regarded as technically the best of the four European 2018 contenders and is expecting to receive a "low-risk" assessment from FIFA.

The England bid has suffered the most from the Sunday Times revelations alleging FIFA Ex-co members Amos Adamu and Reynald Temarii sought cash in exchange for their World Cup votes.

As they enter the final fortnight of a race that is expected to go to the wire, despite the impact of a backlash against England in the wake of recent media allegations of FIFA corruption, the bid team will take heart from criticism of their two major rivals - the Russia and Spain/Portugal bids - on transport and security respectively in the technical reports.

Russia has promised free overland travel to help fans cover the vast distances between stadiums but some of the promised routes do not yet exist.

Spain/Portugal is criticised for lacking provide a proper safety and security plan, while the Holland/Belgium bid is marked down for failing to provide several government guarantees.
