What is the biggest football field in the World Cup in South Africa?

On June 1 1, the opening match of the World Cup in South Africa will be held in Johannesburg Football City. Football City is the largest stadium in South Africa, with a seating capacity of 94,000 spectators. It stands to reason that there are still three days before the game, and everything here should be ready, but when the reporter rushed to handle the official interview card issued by FIFA on the afternoon of the 7 th, he saw an amazing scene.

From the appearance, the football field similar to the Bird's Nest Stadium is very spectacular in the sunset. On closer inspection, many facilities are rudimentary. From the workshops of volunteers and journalists to the media workshops, there are temporary white tents, and some finishing work is in full swing. The periphery of the football city is dusty, and after walking not far, the body is covered with dust.

Fortunately, the black volunteers who work on the spot are kind. It took the reporter less than 20 minutes to get an official interview certificate with an invitation letter from FIFA. In the subsequent visits to the media center and the football city, the reporter felt that the security at the scene was lax. Not only did he not receive any security check during the whole entry and exit process, but Cabbiso, the black driver who accompanied the reporter, was also undocumented all the way. Talking about safety, Cabbiso said with a smile that everything will be fine after the official start of the game. When the reporter was ready to leave the football city, a helicopter kept hovering over the football city. Kabios immediately pointed to the plane and said, "Look, someone will protect everyone."

South Africa's security problems are not limited to sports events. How to ensure the daily safety of foreign fans is also a key issue for the organizers. After the reporters arrived in Joburg and checked into the apartment hotel, the boss asked everyone to learn to protect themselves. "It is best for everyone to travel in groups during the day, but after 6 pm, it is best not to leave the hotel." In order to ensure safety, the boss gave each tenant a key to the apartment door, so whoever comes in or out should lock the door behind him. Near our apartment, residents surrounded by power grids can be seen everywhere, and even local people dare not care about safety.

It is understood that for security reasons, a large number of fans canceled hotel reservations, which turned the original concern about the shortage of hotel rooms in South Africa into a surplus of hotel rooms.
