They always do. Still a great investment, when things done. I like to see South America or any other country outside of Europe doing what Portugal is doing, bringing 10 new stadiums up at the same time.
USA could do it but they won't. If not the Metrostars would had there stadium approve, for a big invent like the WC or the European Cup the USA will still use the Rose Bowl, we had our Rose Bowl and guess what its coming down. The Benfica stadium capacity 120,000 is coming down and replace with a new stadium. Is the USA going to build World Cup stadiums for the WC, I don't think so. What they are doing and I agree they building stadium for 22,000 to 30,000 for the MLS. A big event like the World Cup we are going to use football stadiums like the Revolution stadium.
Not bad stadiums though. They are pretty much kept up to date. Giants Stadium is one of the best in the world.
