My mother and most of my family are from Quito, Ecuador. Although Quito, as well as many of the other places listed on FIFAS ban pose a possible safety issue, I feel as you are trying to take something away from a people that has ingrained soccer within their culture. Please reconsider your ban FIFA and let the players decide where they want to play.
If they are going to ban altitude cities, then they should ban extreme temperature cities too. And then the next worldcup could not be played in South Africa! It is riddiculous and it is discriminatory. I´m from Quito , Ecuador and I´m looking forward to be in the Ecuador matches that should be played in Quito!
This ban is a complete disgrace to the game of international soccer and an absolute embarrassment to our south american brethren whom cherish the game more than anything......
Bogot no se puede quedar sin futbol internacional, es el colmo que la capital de un pas tenga que pasar por esto, adems siendo una de las ms grandes, pobladas e importantes de nuestro continente
Futbol is an international sport and nobody should be excluded. If some countries have problems adapting to hight there are several, non doping systems to cope with it.
There are more than 10 million people affected by this ban, there are really 90 million people living over 2500 over sea level. We can´t allow this ban to happen. So long.
We are talking about sports professionals here. Are you telling me that I can never again see an international soccer game in my city (Bogota THE CAPITAL of Colombia) because these guys can't handle it?We could also say that playing in Europe during the summer gives europeans and advantage over south american teams beacuse it is way to hot for us (for those who don't know, we do not have season here and the hotter that Bogota gets ever is 22C). There should not be any soccer mathces on cities woth a weather over 28C.what do you think about that?
Eso es acepcin de personas, va en contra de la igualdad, el colmo!! Que hagan estudios y comprueben que tiene una justificacin mayor que rabia de los argentinos y bracileros
