We are now there! The participating teams in the final of the Munsieville International Children's Cup are now known. Since June 12th, 32 teams and more than 500 children of the Munsieville Community have gathered at the local stadium to bring the whole fever of the FIFA World Cup to their community. Out of the 32 teams, there are two still standing! In a action-filled game played at the Munsieville Stadium, the representatives of Brazil won a crazy match over the tournament favourite, France, by the score of 5-4!
The first half was not indicative of the pace that the game would take in the last 30 minutes, as the score was 1-0 Brazil after 30 minutes. In the other semi-final, Germany won by 2-1, fulfilling their promise established from day one, that they would be part of the last game of the tournament.
For the rest of the week, the two teams will have the chance to maximise their preparation for the final which will be held this Saturday July 10th, one day prior to the FIFA World Cup Final taking place in Soccer Sity, Soweto. Talking to a few players from each team, they cannot wait for that day!
