containers &#8211; 974 is the dialing code for Qatar.<\/p>\n<p>Inside, it held around 40,000 seats &#8211; officially bumped up by 4,089 after the tournament kicked off.<\/p>\n<p>But fans may get to take their seat in the ground again &#8211; on the other side of the world.<\/p>\n<p>Opened on November 20, 2021, the stadium was used for just 13 matches.<br \/>\nThat included six at the Arab Cup and seven at the World Cup, the last of which was Brazil&#8217;s thumping 4-1 win over South Korea on Monday night.<\/p>\n<p>Within hours of the full-time whistle, though, the trucks and forklifts were out in force to start the mammoth dissembling job.<\/p>\n<p>However, this is not expected to be the end of the story for the Stadium 974.<\/p>\n<p>Because as reported by the Financial Times, the plan is to transport the shipping containers &#8211; presumably by boat &#8211; 8,000 miles to Uruguay.<br \/>\nThe South American nation plan to rebuild the stadium back to its original structure and host World Cup matches there in 2030.<\/p>\n<p>Uruguay are hoping the proposed initiative to reduce the wasted derelict venues will help sway the votes for the hosting rights for the tournament in eight years&#8217; time &#8211; exactly 100 years since they staged the inaugural event.<\/p>\n<p>Their bid will be a joint effort with Argentina, Chile and Paraguay.<\/p>\n<p>But it faces competition from the European bid of Spain, Portugal and Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p>A bid from Morocco and a cross-confederation campaign from Egypt, Greece and Saudi Arabia has also been proposed.<\/p>\n<p><img
