SAO PAULO, Brazil -- Brazilian organizers are adding
safety features where a worker died in the stadium
hosting the World Cup opener, hoping to quickly reverse
an order that halted construction in part of the venue.
The addition of new safety rails on Tuesday comes a day
after labour officials said the installation of 20,000
temporary seats at the Itaquerao stadium could not
continue until safety concerns were addressed. On
Saturday, a 23-year-old worker died after falling from
about 26 feet while installing the seats needed for the
opener. Fast Engenharia, the company in charge of the
temporary structures, was yet to release information
about a new construction timetable for the stadium, which
was already delayed. The company said in a statement that
it was preparing a report to show labour officials that
all the necessary measures had been implemented. It said
the report would be delivered by the end of the day on
Tuesday. The company, which reiterated that all of its
safety measures were in accordance with Brazilian
regulations, said that after the analysis of the report
it expected construction to "resume immediately so it
could deliver the work by the established deadline."
Before the accident, FIFA expected the venue to be ready
about a month ahead of the June 12 opening match between
Brazil and Croatia. Sao Paulos vice mayor didnt expect
the work stoppage to cause significant delays to the
stadiums construction, saying the installation of the
temporary seats was a "relatively simple job." "Its not a
complex situation," Nadia Campeao told Radio Estadao.
"Even if work is stopped for a few days so the
recommended adjustments can be made, it shouldnt alter
the final timetable." FIFA and the local World Cup
organizing committee released a statement downplaying the
delay caused by the work interruption, which they called
"standard procedure when accidents of this nature occur."
"FIFA and the LOC support any efforts to improve workers
safety by the authorities," the statement said. "Given
the advanced state of the assembling of the temporary
stands, we believe that the schedule for delivery of
these areas will not be impacted." A labour ministry
official in Sao Paulo said the construction stoppage was
needed to eliminate the risk of another death. "If there
are no additional safety measures, the work cant
continue," Luiz Antonio de Medeiros told the Agencia
Estado news service. "There was not enough protection, it
was irresponsible." Fast Engenharia has denied any
wrongdoing and said the worker had all required safety
equipment available to him at the time of the accident.
Investigators said an initial probe showed the worker
didnt connect himself to a safety cable. According to
witness accounts, he said he only had a "quick thing" to
finish at the site. Medeiros said additional safety
measures could have prevented the death even if the
worker wasnt connected to his safety cable. The safety
rails were being added around areas where workers
installed the temporary seats. FIFA and the local World
Cup organizing committee did not immediately answer
requests for comments on the work stoppage. Construction
was already behind schedule at the Itaquerao stadium
because of the damage caused by another accident that
killed two workers following a crane collapse in late
November. A giant roofing structure fell on part of the
stadiums facade, significantly pushing back the stadiums
date of completion. The stadium, being built by popular
Brazilian club Corinthians, is expected to cost about
$490 million. In addition to the opener, it will host
three group matches, one second-round game and one of the
semifinals.

Following the Ford Womens World Curling Championship gold
medal match that attracted record-breaking audiences to
TSN, the networks exclusive live coverage of the
tournament begins Saturday at 7am et/4am pt with Canadas
opening draw against Denmark.BUENOS AIRES, Argentina --
Striker Carlos Tevez was left out of Argentinas
preliminary 30-man squad for the World Cup on Tuesday.
Despite having just led Juventus to the Italian league
title as the teams top scorer, Argentina coach Alejandro
Sabella ignored pleas from Tevez passionate fan base in
Argentina. Sabella has never called up the hard-working
striker since taking charge of the national team in 2011.
Instead hes put his faith in Ezequiel Lavezzi and Rodrigo
Palacio as substitutes for star attackers Lionel Messi,
Gonzalo Higuain and Sergio Aguero. All were included in
Sabellas initial 30-player squad, which will be reduced
to a final 23 by a FIFA deadline of June 2. The 30-year-
old Tevez has scored 19 goals in the Italian Serie A this
season. "I am sorry I had to leave out good players,"
Sabella said, without mentioning names. He also excluded
veteran midfielder Esteban Cambiasso of Inter Milan but
included Manchester Citys Martin Demichelis, who hasnt
played for the national team for two years. While
Argentinas attack is among the worlds strongest, the team
looks weaker at the back. Sergio Romero remains Sabellas
first-choice goalkeeper even though hes not a regular
starter for French club Monaco. Mariano Andujar of
Catania and Agustin Orion of Boca Juniors were called up
as Romeros backups in the preliminary squad. Sabella
included central defenders Federico Fernandez and
Ezequiel Garay along with fullbacks Pablo Zabaleta and
Marco Roja.dddddddddddd Boca Juniors midfielder Fernando
Gago was selected despite receiving a knee injury last
month. Gago damaged a ligament in his left knee last
month in the Argentine league. The midfield lineup also
includes Javier Mascherano, Angel Di Maria and Ever
Banega. ------ Argentina: Goalkeepers: Sergio Romero
