Hi, its me..
England's friendly with Brazil in Rio de Janeiro on Sunday has been suspended over safety issues at the recently renovated Maracana stadium.
A court order on Thursday ruled that the game will not go ahead, but that decision could still be overturned.
The iconic stadium reopened in April after nearly three years of work updating it for the 2014 World Cup.

How can something like this happen, why arrange a friendly in a stadium when you don't have permission to host events there, what about fans who booked hotels and plane tickets to travel to brazil, and how can the decision be over turned in time, if it is not considered safe for hosting the event today i don't see how that will change in two days from now, unless they bribe some judges to give it the go ahead...

The suspension is apparently regarding some finishing touches like stadium seating installation and pavement which would benefit from having a few extra days. There's red tape about holding an event at a venue that doesn't meet minimum requirements, the Brazilian football authorities could be fined £650,000.

The Maracana was 4 months behind schedule. World Cup preparations as a whole have been lagging behind from what I've read; including infrastructure but supposedly they are making some leaps lately in terms of progress.
But like I mentioned they are dealing with red-tape and FA/city codes here. Violating them even slightly is still violation in the governments eyes and would result in hefty fines.
