I think, this is the least of the problems that location presents. The stadiums built with slave labour are more prominent in my mind.

The last time that a football match was played was played on top of so many corpses was during the christmas truce in WW 1

But back then it was a symbol of humanity. The soldiers on either side of the trenches fraternising, since they had more in common with their comrades on the other side than their own officers. If they had had their way, the war would have ended there and then.

Yes, I totally agree. 
My comment was a glib attempt at satire.

Well congrats Argentina. Hope we all live to see another World Cup. Or in my case, hear about it.

I hope watching people kick a ball around is worth the slave labor.
