Brazil Reaffirms Support To Alcohol Sale In WCup

Brazil's sports minister reaffirmed to FIFA that the government remains committed to approving the sale of alcohol inside World Cup stadiums, even though Congress is divided on the issue.

Aldo Rebelo released a statement clarifying Brazil's stance just hours after congressmen hinted at removing the text on the sale of alcohol from a bill regulating the World Cup. Voting on the bill was delayed again because a deal on the issue was not reached.

Lower house government leader Arlindo Chinaglia hinted that section could be removed because Brazil didn't really make a commitment to FIFA to allow the sale of alcoholic beverages.
