Chapter 1135: The Opening Ceremony of the World Cup

With Portugal's arrival in Brazil, all 32 teams participating in the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil are all on Brazilian soil, and at this time, not only local fans in Brazil are feeling the atmosphere of the World Cup, but also fans from all over the world who follow football enter the atmosphere of the World Cup and cheer for football.

Football knows no borders, and this World Cup has been the perfect example of this.

After all the major teams arrived in Brazil, the media naturally paid attention to the 'mysterious' opening ceremony of the World Cup, especially the mystery of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, and fans who followed this World Cup were full of expectations for the opening ceremony in Brazil.

The opening ceremony of the 20th Brazil World Cup was held at the Corinthians Arena in Sao Paulo, and the time was at 2:15 p.m. on the 12th local time in Brazil......

Soon after, the opening ceremony was officially announced to the cheers of the President of Brazil, and a huge spherical LED display in the center of the stadium welcomed everyone with the words of 32 participating countries, this display is made up of 90,000 LED lights that can create 7,000 nits of brightness.

Immediately afterward, the spherical display shows the scene from the beginning of the universe.

The opening ceremony kicked off with a performance of the natural part of the main theme, all of the actors from São Paulo, who came together to show the beauty of the beginning of the world, where rivers converge, the landscape changes, plants and animals gradually appear, and human beings are born.

The Guarani, the oldest ethnic group in Brazil, is played in the venue.

An enlarged version of Abidou, one of the most important instruments in samba music, brings together a variety of instruments and as the music plays, enthusiastic dancers come to the center of the venue to show off the different styles of dance from all over Brazil, the most well-known samba is on fire, and the girls in white tops and red dresses are swaying.

The finale is the masculine Brazilian War Dance, a unique dance between art and martial arts, and one of Brazil's national arts.

Brazilian art and dance are on full display here, and the creative opening ceremony made fans around the world feel like they were watching the World Cup in Brazil......

The ceremony will be broadcast live on television in 200 countries and regions around the world, and will be broadcast live on 160 television stations, with 3 billion viewers watching on TV or online, all of which are the highest in history.

The opening ceremony was divided into three parts, the first two parts made the fans feel the style of the Brazilian people, and the final interpretation was naturally a return to football, after all, this is a feast for football.

The first to appear was the referee, the whistle sounded, the elves of football appeared in the center of the field, and 64 children representing the 32 participating teams appeared, the only girl named Isabella, and the spherical display screen showed the glory of the Samba ball in the World Cup.

A huge Brazilian flag enters the arena and stops next to a spherical display, where a disabled person named Giuliano Pinto wears a special device kicks off the tournament and slowly opens to a circular stage.

Finally, it was Latin diva Jennifer López and Iro's girlfriend Taylor Swift who co-led the singing of the theme song "We-Are-One" for this year's World Cup in Brazil

In this regard, Iroh also indirectly made a splash, just like the Spanish international Pique in the 2010 World Cup, who became the envy of male fans all over the world......

The Chinese team was preparing for the first group game of the World Cup against Portugal in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil.

There is no doubt that Captain Iroh has become the envy of all the men present.

With the opening ceremony over, everyone's attention shifted to the opening match.

But before the opening match began, many media complained about the opening ceremony of the World Cup in Brazil.

Compared with the opening ceremonies of the previous World Cups, the opening ceremony of the World Cup in Brazil is far less in time than the previous World Cups, and the most important thing is that the excitement is not comparable with the past.

However, I believe that fans who follow the World Cup are more willing to see the exciting World Cup events.

As for the opening ceremony, it will slowly enter the minds of fans with the passage of time......

At the end of the opening ceremony, the Chinese team started the afternoon training at the hotel, which was to conduct strength training at the hotel.

Portugal's style of play is Latin, but the physical condition is just as good, and it is extremely important for Pep Guardiola to make his players feel their strength in advance, after all, they are prepared......

As the Chinese team went to the gym of the hotel, the Brazilian and Croatian players who were about to make their debut in the opening match entered the stadium to warm up for the opening match of the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.

It is worth mentioning that when the players of both sides were warming up on the field, even if the on-site director did not give the camera to the guests in the stands, the sharp-eyed reporter still found the Brazilian superstar Kaka, who was defeated in the local World Cup.

As for why the reporter is looking for Kaka, the reason is very simple, that is, Brazil's first match in the World Cup in Germany eight years ago, against the official plaid army Croatia, that game...... It was Kaka's long-range strike that opened the scoring for Brazil and relied on it to win the game.

Croatia is not a strong team in Europe, but there is a saying in world football that there are no weak teams in Europe.

In other words, as long as the team in the European region advances to the World Cup, there is no weak team, which is enough to give the Brazilian team a headache.

In addition, the Brazilian national anthem played before the start of the opening match between Brazil and Croatia became the focus of attention of the reporters at the scene.

Brazil's debut ceremony also gave a sense of unity, starting with captain Thiago Silva's appearance, followed by each Brazilian player holding the shoulders of their teammates in front of them.

It's easy to see that the unique way the Brazilian players play is carefully designed, and as a return to Brazilian soil to host the World Cup, they are a five-star Brazilian team with players under tremendous pressure to make another big run on their home turf.

The best thing is to win the World Cup and turn five stars into six stars!
