The whole world is mainly putting eyes on the major teams, including Brazil, to celebrate the World Cup at large. Brazil won against Zimbabwe in an international friendly and looks like the Brazilian national team is expected to be successful this summer at the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa. The whole African continent is dancing the samba after a glorious 3 - 0 win that has captivated much attention to the Brazilian way of playing. As I saw the coverage before the game, the goverment of Zimbabwe considered the game as their major game of their lives because of the honor that the world has now to play Brazil with such fantastic players from around the world and seeing this game at large. 50,000 people attended the game andwith such euforia into what the World Cup is going to be in Africa for the first time.

The most exhibited moments to watch is that Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe and Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai, were in the suites and saluted the citizens attending the event and celebrated along with the crowd probably one of the best games exhibited in the continent for years. Many of the people of Zimbabwe were flattered by the organization of this event that took place in the capital of Harare. This game is extremely important because organizing the international friendly is to expose the country to the world and to promote the hope of doing another World Cup in Africa in later years following the next World Cup holding in the future. Zimbabwe is located in the northeast part of South Africa and has been isolated from the world due to political and social events that led the country in turmoil. An international friendly especially when it involves soccer is to show the rest of the world the unity that countries get to have despite political and social differences exhibited.

Zimbabwe surely made a goal, and that goal was to bring the Brazilian national team to the country and to show the audience its "joga bonito" to the audience that felt the awe of the style that Brazilians use to play. Despite Zimbabwe's lost, they have shown a very humble team that is not afraid of its rivals in spite of their level of play. Zimbabwe felt the courage and the right attitude of the world "team" was very effective because they fought for what they believed in and with much please they had a dream, a dream that maybe in four years they will get to go to the major sports party in the planet, the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil. This experience will be an one and only, but the dreams will go as they should.
