= because without them
...não poderíamos realizar...
= (it) could have never taken place
= we could have never organized (it)
...II Copa.

I thought the asker was only confused about \"queremos agradecer ainda\".... I ended up giving so many suggestions since the sentence looked so easy. I felt comfortable giving this suggestion and I wasn\'t aware of the 10-word rule, but I\'ll definitely keep it in mind for the future.
