Our entire country is enthusiastically following your great World Cup campaign.

Once again, you have shown talent, determination, fighting spirit and the ability to rise above challenges, which will help make up for the major loss caused by the injury of our dear Neymar.

All of Brazil already feels victorious, both because we are hosting the Cup of Cups and because we have the most beautiful, unwavering team of all.

Like never before, you are making our hearts beat in one rhythm, and giving us one voice of joy and hope.

Onwards, for the main challenge is now behind us!
