Futebol

Yesterday, I got to watch a football match in Brazil as I travelled to the Engenhão Stadium to watch Fluminense v. Vasco Da Gama. Fluminense are one of the top teams in Brazil and I sat with their supporters, they normally play their home matches at the famous Maracanã Stadium but that is closed at the moment as they prepare it for the World Cup next summer.
It was great to watch a football match in the country where next year's World Cup will be held and the game finished 1-1. I even saw an ex-Liverpool 'keeper play in goal for Fluminense and Fred score for them (The same player who scored against England last week).
Did You Know?: Although the Engenhão Stadium won't be used in the 2014 World Cup it will be the venue for the athletics at the Rio 2016 Olympics and Paralympics.
