Attack on the World Cup

Attack on the World Cup

This late in the game between Brazil and the Netherlands, there was a terrorist attack. A plane headed to Johannesburg, changed course and crashed directly into the stadium where the match was played, killing 60 000 people.

Al Qaeda claimed responsibility for the fact through a press statement released by the news channel Al Jazeera.

FIFA decided to suspend matches remaining, because it became clear that the security of the World Cup is not good enough against attacks of this magnitude.
