ADVANCE FOR SUNDAY, MARCH 16, 2014 AND THEREAFTER - This Feb. 3, 2014 photo shows an unfinished monorail line, it construction delayed, that was slated to improve mobility during the World Cup, in Sao Paulo, Brazil. The World Cup was to have served as a stepping-out party announcing Brazil’s arrival on the global stage.

Many Brazilians now say that even if their beloved soccer team wins the World Cup on July 13, the country will have already lost. (AP Photo/Andre Penner)
