The organisers of the 2010 Fifa World Cup has removed Port Elizabeth as a venue from the Confederations Cup, to be staged next year, due to delays of stadium construction.
A technical team compiled a report which stated that the P.E stadium would likely miss the deadline in March next year for safety and health tests.
The Confederations Cup is often served as a test to see the host country’s preparations for the World Cup.
Sepp Blatter raised eyebrows last month when he said, he has a plan B in place should South Africa be unable to host the 2010 World Cup, however he stressed it would only come into effect, in the event of a natural disaster.
