FIFA in Egypt

THe U-20 (under 20) World Cup is currently being played in Egypt!! My friend and I took advantage of the siutation and attended a game yesterday-- but not, Egypt or US-- Brazil, of course!
"Futball" stadium in Cairo. Really the stadium was quite empty but they gave away a lot of seats to soliders to make it look as if lots of people were there. Thus, this was the only full section- besides the "Brazilian" section!


GOL! Finally, Brazil got in the game and gave us something to cheer about. Chants in Arabic and Portugese continued strong through the second half and overtime. Once it got started it didn't stop until Germany went home crying! "eu sou brasiliera....muito orgulho....muito amor...":)~
After 1 overtime session, they went home crying!
Love Brazilian football!
2-1 and Brazil advances....
