WORLD CUP USA 1994 : Time Changed for Ceremony

The starting time for the closing ceremony that precedes the World Cup final between Italy and Brazil on Sunday at the Rose Bowl has been changed to 11:15 a.m. from 11:45.

FIFA, the world governing body of soccer, requested the earlier start in order to give the players enough time to properly warm up for the game, which is scheduled to start at 12:35 p.m.
