The Brazilian footballers have finally arrived in Fiji with the promise of displaying some of the finest football against our national soccer team.
Speaking to Fijivillage at the Nadi International Airport last night, Vodafone Play Fair Brazil team captain Paulo Sergio said it is a privilege for them to be here.
Sergio, who has scored two goals for Brazil in his international career and was part of the victorious Brazil team that won the 1994 World Cup, said they are eager to show the Brazilian style of football.
43-year-old Sergio has also played for top clubs like Bayern Munich and AS Roma.
Fiji will face the Vodafone Play Fair Brazil side tomorrow at Churchill Park at 6pm and Govind Park at 2.30pm this Saturday.
You can catch the live commentaries of both matches on our sister station Radio Sargam.
