DAY 22

 

 

7/3/14. FORTALEZA - Mini Papi ran into the most important player of the Brazilian national team... do I really need to say his name? He is on every poster, ad, tv commercial, etc in Brazil... 19 out of 20 letters from the fans of Brazil are for him... and with only 22 years of age, Neymar is not only the star of the Brazilian team, but also the hope of his whole country. You can imagine the pressure that lays on his shoulders...

 

Tomorrow, in just hours, the quarter-finals of the World Cup begin with the Germany-France game at Maracana Stadium, followed by the Brazil-Colombia match at Castelao Stadium. Both duels are full of expectations and excitement. On one side, Benzema and his mates have the chance to revenge the Germans after that defeat in Mexico 1986. And on the other side, James Rodriguez, Cuadrado and all the other "cafeteros" could take down host Brazil of its own World Cup with the 'jogo bonito' and dominance they have been showing during the whole tournament.
