Der er godt to uger til VM i fodbold begynder. Her et tankevækkende gademaleri fra det problemfyldte land, hvor den ekstremt dyre turnering afholdes. UEFA-boss Michel Platini opfordrede for får uger siden utilfredse brasilianerne til – surprise, surprise! – ikke at protestere under turneringen. Han sagde:
– We must tell the Brazilians that they have the World Cup and they are there to show the beauty of their country and their passion for football. If they can wait at least a month before making social outbursts, it would be good for Brazil and for the football world. Brazilians should pay tribute to this beautiful World Cup. It was given to Brazil to make them happy.
