Reposting from a friend in Brazil:
“Germany won the affection of the Brazilian people. Six months ago, the Germans arrived and:
– Bought the ground.
– They built a hotel.
– They built a health center.
– They made a football field.
– They made a road to link the training center.
– Not brought German officials, hired people of the city.
After the German team arrived and:
– When not training, were socializing with people in the city and on the beach.
– Participated in festivals with the population.
– Interacted with the Indians.
– They wore the shirt of the local team (Bahia).
About the victory over our selection:
– Combined at halftime to slow down so as not to humiliate the host nation.
– They said that their idols are our past players.
– Apologized after the rout.
– Are posting on social networks, encouraging messages to the Brazilian people and thanking hospitality.
And will leave everything they have built for the city’s population.
Can you not cheer for these guys?”
