During the display on the big screen in the food court, the stores were closed. So, Carla Rayane, saleswoman, took advantage of the moment to put into practice a tradition to send good energy to the Brazilian team.
"It's a contagious energy. We always have to be characterized to help the team, sending good vibes. I'm sure they feel it there, even though we're far away. I always use at least one Brazilian flag during the games to show support", he said.

The World Cup games are also a time to gather family and friends. In the case of the Rodrigues family, the mother, Eline, and father, Luciano, businessmen, were together supporting Brazil. In fact, the youngest four-legged, Bob, also wore the team's shirt.
"He's very well-behaved, so I decided to bring him to watch too. I always like going for a walk with him, but this is the first time I've brought him to watch the World Cup game," said Eline.
The family was matching the team's yellow shirt. According to Luciano, it is to send good energy to the players.
"He's the home boy. We bought him the Brazil shirt and brought it back to bring good luck to the team," said Luciano.
Stores close during national team games
Paloma de Lima, store manager at the mall, explained that stores close during games so that everyone can watch the match. It was a decision by the superintendent to stop sales activities, except for the food court, which remains open. Dressed to cheer, Paloma has faith in Hexa.
"We can't stop dreaming. We often come in discredited, but we can't stop dreaming. Expectations are very high, every four years we hope to be able to win the title. I hope we reach the final, because then the stores will close and I'll be able to watch the games", he stated.

Sabrina Freitas, a student, was not confident in Brazil's victory, so much so that she didn't even buy the team's shirt to watch the games. She just used a crochet bandana as an accessory to complete the look.
"I didn't have any faith. After that first goal I got excited, I'm even going to buy a national team shirt. Today, I only came with an accessory, but in the next game I'm going to come with that complete fan kit. I'm confident in the hexa, now my blood has heated up", he declared.
Brazil's next game will be on Friday, June 19, against Haiti, at 8:30 pm.
