Navi Mumbai: A FIFA delegation on Saturday expressed happiness at the preparedness of the facilities at Navi Mumbai for the Under-17 Football World Cup, saying the DY Patil Stadium here should be treated as benchmark for other venues in the country.
The delegation led by FIFA Head of Events Jamie Yarza on Saturday inspected the DY Patil Stadium here. "I said last year that I was happy with the stadium and I haven't changed my mind. It is a fantastic stadium and most of the works which we have requested to be able to host four teams and all the logistical organisational aspects of the World Cup have been completed," Yarza told reporters after the inspection visit.
