So it is the stupidity of organising committee. While choosing venue, they did not inspect the drainage system/capacity. Not the fault of extreme weather, wrong venue chosen by world cup organising committee.
Both the teams were given the option of playing after seeing the pitch conditions. Brazil apparently refused to play. Also the organizers faced a lot of flak for allowing the Mali vs Ghana match on horrible pitch conditions. Pressure was on them too.
Spain beats Mali 3-1 to reach the finals and clash with England...there has apparently been some controversy with Mali being disallowed a genuine goal because of the absence of goal line technology
