Put the paragraphs in the correct order and read about a famous London stadium. A. It was closed for reconstruction in 2000 and will be opened again in 2007. When it is finished, the new Wembley Stadium will be the largest roof-covered football stadium in Europe seating 90,000 people. B. Since that time, the FA Cup Final was played there every year in May until 2000. It was also the place of many international football events, including 1948 Summer Olympics. The new Wembley is an important part of the plan for the 2012 Summer Olympics in London. C. The first event at the stadium was the FA Cup Final on 28 April 1923. This is known as the White Horse Final. There were 127,000 seats at the sta­dium at that time. But the reports say that up to 240,000 people got inside and left tens of thousands still outside. People were everywhere and the match couldn't begin. Then the police on horses slowly pushed the audience back to the sides of the field and the match started 45 minutes late.   << < 139 140 141 142 143 144 145 146 147 148 > >>
