Summary

COI synopsis: Watched by coach Aymore Moreira, Brazilian footballers train hard for an international match against the English at Wembley, the London arena where every footballer dreams of playing. This vast stadium has been transformed and modernised and is now one of the most up-to-date in the world. ‘Carrousel Britanico’ goes into the crowded stand to see the contest, a display of skilful football which ended in a draw.
