FIFA World Cup 2018

Everybody knows Russia is going to host FIFA world cup 2018, and since there needs to be lots of renovation work done. Most of the stadiums there are being under construction either for taking a new shape altogether or to enhance their capacity to host one of the biggest sport’s events. In a surprising discovery at a stadium where world cup’s matches are scheduled to be played, an unexploded bomb related to World War II is found in its ideal condition. This made everyone shocked at this time when every work seems to be delayed. Since, this is not the thing anyone can ignore; massive hunt is on the way to discover more such hasty findings. It is a well-known fact within every historian that there are almost hundreds of explosives which were fired on Russia but could not exploded, and all these explosives are still believed to be lying ideal there.

FIFA world cup is the biggest sports event Russian government is going to host, and these kinds of incidents are a setback on its fast moving preparations. If more such findings are discovered, it could lead to begin a massive hunt over every world cup hosting site. The bomb is said to be found around 300 meters away of Spartak stadium’s south stand which is going to have 43000 spectators capacity. A stadium official said after the finding, “Today at 2.49 p.m. we were informed that an object that looks like a WWII aerial bomb had been found during construction work. Stadium employees are awaiting the arrival of specialists in defusing aerial bombs. A police cordon is around the bomb.” However, he urged that no work in progress has yet been affected by this discovery, but behind the scene everybody seems to be tensed over this issue.

Historians claim that this bomb could a part of German’s air force attack back in 1941 and 1942. Moreover, this is the same site where a construction worker died last month when an iron rod fell on him. Since, this stadium is supposed to host 2017 Confederations Cup before world cup 2018, its preparations were supposed to be completed early next year. But now, it would probably take a further extension due to this panic finding. Right now, police has been called upon and investigations are being carried on by the investigating agency.
