Welcome to the Goethe Institut. Here they transformed the "Auditorio" into a football arena, including fake grass and some impressionist paintings on the wall. As I do not have my own "camiseta da selecao" (team-t-shirt), I attend all the games with my t-shirt "Ausländerin" - foreigner. It's true after all ;-)
This is Goethe. Did you get it? He and the head of Goethe Institut and some other important people I don't really remember opened the World Cup at the Institute. The white wall behind them will be our screen. And of course we had German beer for free. Well, the others had.
This is how the stage looked during the first half of the game. O Globo, the biggest TV-station in the country had to do some interviews with "real" German fans, and they did find them here. I was also asked some interesting questions, such as "Isn't it hard to be so far away from home during the Championship" and "so what will you do in the last game? Brasil or Germany?". But I don't know if they actually published it ;-)
And this is the stage during the second half. On behalf of some tired neck-muscles...
Remember? That was the first game, Germany won... and many more are to follow.
