The internet is flooded with articles, photos, images, blogs, columns, videos, all about World Champions’s Spain early exit of the World Cup. The Guardian’s reporter Sid Lowe managed to put in writing all the atmosphere and feeling going on at the end of the match. Really exceptional text. You see yourself there, feeling with them.

Starst with: “It was a long walk out of the Maracanã and a quiet one too.”

And Casillas (for many one of the most responsible for the failure) says: “Is this the end of an era?”, he was asked. “Things are going to change. Eras end with defeats … and this was a painful defeat. Now we’re going home,” he said, beginning the long walk out of there and out of the World Cup.”

Read it all. A MUST for Sports writers and lovers.

That’s what happens when you host the most watched Sports Events in the World. The ‘guests’ see the entire house not only the dining room.

. NO planes are allowed to land in  Salvador during games? Well, a group of Dutch fans found that out the hard way last week. Their flight from the United States last Friday was late but they thought they would still be able to join in the celebrations – and what celebrations!! 5×1 Spain!!!!) after their opening match. Not that simple. As they prepared to touch down, the pilot pulled up from the tarmac and land them  an hour later in Aracaju, 100 miles from their destination!!! At least that is what is published on The Times today.  I mean : not even the pilots are informed of those so important – although ridiculous – changes?!?!

. Lionel Messi left a young boy very distressed? Watch this

. There are so many Argentinians in  Brazil that a commentator wrote in his column: “Copabana has been already taken; Let’s see if we can defend Ipanema”

I can only hope no disaster happens. But this is absolutely NOT acceptable. And some people are going around saying everything is fine. This is the Cup of the Cups!!

So many things have gone wrong already. The international media are really trying to be sympathetic but it is impossible when lives are being put  at risk like this. And it all cost over £7,5 billion!!!

The beach town  of Santos had one of its proudest moments yesterday when Edson Arantes do Nascimento rode on a streetcar trolley into the opening ceremony of The Pelé Museum. The wild , emotional applause was genuine, after all, Pele’ is probably the person who made Santos a world wide famous city.

It was an invitation only event and  had over 300 people present including the vice president of Brazil, Michel Temer,  and the mayor of Santos, Paulo A Barbosa.The museum takes up  4,000 square meters in a complex inside Santos’ old town in  a renovated historic building, and houses more than 2,500 items related to his career, including trophies, jerseys, photos and other memorabilia.

Pelé told the journalists and guests that assembling all his mementos into one place was a dream come true and that he was proud to represent his city and country.

Memorabilia does bring back a lot of memories

“In 1958, no one knew Brazil.  And today,  everyone’s here at the inauguration of my museum,” he said at the podium. “Now we’re getting the Cup of all Cups and all eyes are on us here.”
