Flamengo vs. Palmeiras

While in Rio we went to the Flamengo/Palmieras game. Flamengo is the most popular team in all of Brasil and the Flamengo/Palmeiras rivalry is a huge one. Flamengo is from Rio and Palmeiras is from Sao Paolo. The stadium they played at is pretty historic and one of the largest in the world. Its called Maracana and was built for the 1950 world cup. This game may be one of the greatest sports experiences I ever had.
