BRAZIL 2014: Uwanja kupewa jina la Tim Howard

Marcio Maximo amerudi Tanzania, kwa ajili ya kuinoa klabu ya Yanga inayoshiriki Ligi Kuu ya Tanzania Bara.

Huo uwanja ambao tunaung’oa viti hapo Temeke kwa vurugu zisizo na msingi kumbe ni gumzo Brazil. Huo uwanja ambao Watanzania hatuoni thamani yake na tunadhani ni uwanja mzuri wa kawaida tu kumbe ni gumzo Brazil.

>From 32, it’s down to the last 16. Here there are no second chances. It is win or bust.

Ferdinand, ambaye amestaafu kuchezea timu ya taifa, atakuwa mmoja wa wachambuzi wa michuano hiyo ya mwaka huu inayoanza wiki hii.

>Vilio, majonzi vilitawala kila ni kona ya Brazil baada ya kupokea kipigo cha mbwa mwizi cha mabao 7-1kutoka kwa Ujerumani katika nusu fainali ya kwanzajana kwenye Uwanja wa Mineirao.

>Brazil imekata rufaa juu ya adhabu ya kukosa mchezo mmoja kwa nahodha wake, Thiago Silva mwenye kadi mbili za njano, ambazo zinamaanisha atalazimika kukosa mchezo wa leo dhidi ya Ujerumani.

Licha ya kuwa Neymar ndiye mchezaji anayetajwa zaidi na kuonekana msaada mkubwa katika kikosi cha Brazil, pia uwepo wa Oscar, Thiago Silva na David Luiz unaonekana kuwa muhimu uwanjani.

Kikosi hicho, ambacho pia kinamjumuisha mshambuliaji wa zamani wa Chelsea, Samuel Eto’o, kiligoma kuondoka nchini humo juzi kutokana na tatizo la posho zao.

>Two years ago during the London 2012 Olympics, an Italian journalist made what he termed an ‘easy decision’ by foregoing an event involving his country’s athlete, an athletics event he was under obligation to cover for his media house, to rush to the Horse Guards Parade to watch the Brazilian beach volleyball team. The emphasis here is on the female team.
