Samba Boys in Manchester

Apart from the amazing atmosphere generated in Britain and the fantastic sporting prowess on show, one of the best things about the Olympics has been the visitors from all corners of the globe - not just in London but in cities across these fair isles.

Today, Brazil's men were in town to play South Korea at Old Trafford and they brought their colourful and passionate support with them. They certainly brought some sunshine to the city on a cool and overcast day and they will be dancing their way to Wembley to see their boys play Mexico on Saturday after a 3-0 victory against the Koreans.
