The 2014 FIFA World Cup will be the 20th FIFA World Cup, it is scheduled to take place in Brazil from 12 June to 13 July 2014. It will be the second time that Brazil has hosted the competition, the previous being in 1950. The national teams of 31 countries advanced through qualification competitions
that began in June 2011 to participate with the host nation Brazil in
the final tournament. A total of 64 matches are to be played in twelve
cities across Brazil in either new or redeveloped stadiums. For the first time at a World
Cup Finals, the matches will use goal-line technology. The previous World Cup was a catalyst for the decision to adopt technology after England were wrongly denied a goal in their Round of 16 tie against Germany.
Following the mistake in this game, FIFA President Sepp Blatter said "it would be a nonsense not to reopen the file on goal-line technology" and in 2012 the IFAB approved its usage. This is the fourth FIFA competition to use the technology after successful trials at 2012 Club World Cup, 2013 Club World Cup and 2013 Confederations Cup. The German company Goal Control was selected as the tournament's official goal-line technology provider in October 2013. In March 2013, FIFA published a list of 52 prospective referees, each paired with two assistant referees, from all six football confederations for the tournament. On 14 January 2014, the FIFA Referees Committee appointed 25 referee
trios and eight support duos representing 43 different countries for the
tournament.
