JUNE 2010
SINCE 1998
When I was ten years old, my family moved to a neighborhood in Rio
called Maracanã (a Tupi Guarani word meaning Green bird). We lived
right across from The Mario Filho Soccer Stadium (Maracanã) that
opened in 1950 to host the FIFA World Soccer Cup. Needless to say, I
spent my teenager years surrounded by sounds and scenes related to
FUTEBOL!
Here’s a scene with Colombian goalkeeper Higuita that is considered
one of the most amazing defenses ever. Fun!

multi-layered and you can’t judge them by blocks and association,” (By
