Copa America Replaces World Cup Qualifiers For 2014 Hosts Brazil—Aurelio
Brazil are dreaming about building a fortress at the 2014 World Cup but want to use the 2011 Copa America as a cornerstone.
In three years’ time, Brazil will be hosting the 2014 FIFA World Cup. And whereas teams will be busy vying for a spot in the group stages of that tournament, the Seleçao won’t have any qualification encounter to worry about. Now as the hosts of the 2014 World Cup, Liverpool player Aurelio is hoping that Brazil will make the most of the 2011 Copa America. “I think that the Copa America is viewed like the Euros here,” Aurelio told LFC Weekly.
“It’s very important for all national teams, but especially for Brazil, because we won’t have any qualifying game for the next World Cup because we are the hosts.”
