What was by and large an anticipated fact before the formal announcement has been confirmed as FIFA decided in favour of Brazil to host the World Cup after South Africa 2010...

It was a decision marked by no small frustration on the FIFA President's part, Blatter being left exasperated by Brazil's sole candidacy.
This was a large part of the reason that FIFA have now scrapped the controversial continent rota that limited bids to just one area of the world at a time.
Joseph Blatter was forced to deposit a lot of faith in the Brazilian government and Teixeira's CBF (Confederação Brasileira de Futebol - Confederation of Brazilian Football) for the 2014 edition.
“It wasn't easy for us to make the decision. We had a team of experts visit this nation of 190 million inhabitants and the country has been approved", explained Blatter.
The Zurich-based event included acceptance speeches from Brazilian state President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, a clan of twelve sports ministers under Orlando Silva, the writer Paulo Coelho, the striker Romário and national Coach Dunga.
It's the second time that a World Cup comes to Brazil, the first having been won by Uruguay against Brazil at Maracanã, South America having hosted four editions so far: Uruguay (1930), Brazil (1950), Chile (1962) and Argentina (1978).
