<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">OMG!</span><br />
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">What a hard game!</span><br />
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Looking at this score you wouldn't say...</span><br />

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Oscar was playing beautifully all game long, and ended up scoring the third goal.</span><br />
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Croatia played very well, they were fast and focused... congrats guys!</span><br />

<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I've selected some apps for those who are coming to Brazil for the games or even for those who like to take pictures and post on social medias.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">So here they are:</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
</span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZ3A2II0sX7fuuropRNsV1ZEeHVE-9TIqK_B3uxRvH2BO66NPHSbepanhyphenhyphenzAEuwDYDzkc01vCNjSec_GpIQm2DeS0Ad9OM_uEgRdSjVaN0RTV5zSVYxR2NIqAwAOvgzs_ReNeuxHAu6cs/s1600/TripAdvisor-iPhone.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><span style="color: #666666;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZ3A2II0sX7fuuropRNsV1ZEeHVE-9TIqK_B3uxRvH2BO66NPHSbepanhyphenhyphenzAEuwDYDzkc01vCNjSec_GpIQm2DeS0Ad9OM_uEgRdSjVaN0RTV5zSVYxR2NIqAwAOvgzs_ReNeuxHAu6cs/s1600/TripAdvisor-iPhone.jpg" height="200" width="105" /></span></a><span style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-size: large;">TRIP ADVISOR</span><span style="font-size: large;"> -</span></span><span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;"> Is a good app to review restaurants, hotels and share your opinion about the city and fun places.</span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #444444; font-size: large;">FOURSQUARE</span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #444444;"> -</span> </span><span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;">Also a good app to rate places in a city and view other people comments about places. You can check in where you are so it makes easy for your friends to find you! Very clever.</span><br />
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #444444; font-size: large;">WAZE</span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #444444;"> -</span> </span><span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;">For those who are driving or if your taking a cab. View the traffic and use as a navigator. Very useful! </span><br />

One of my favorite apps of all. Call a taxi direct from your phone, track where the taxi is and how many minutes it will take for the driver to arrive. You will see his name and picture on your screen.</span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;">I wrote another post about <a href="http://2014worldcupfortourists.blogspot.com.br/search/label/Rio" target="_blank">Taxi in Rio</a>. Take a look!</span><br />
<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>

Select pictures from Facebook, Instagram, your phone or Dropbox, apply effects and borders, choose the size and you are done! The pictures will be delivered </span><span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;">to your address or hotel</span><span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;"> in a cute envelope! The estimate delivery time is 2 - 4 days for capitals and up to 8 days for other cities. How cool is that?</span><span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;"> </span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;">Here is how it works:</span><br />
<span style="color: #351c75; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/XZOqTOW6oRc?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: #444444; font-size: large;">FRAMATIC -</span><span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;"> </span><span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;">Make collage, add nice borders to your pictures and make them more fun! The rates for this app are very good. No doubt it will be very useful during this World Cup.</span></span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: #e69138; font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">So, Shakira made a very nice song and an amazing video clip for Brazil 2014. It's not an official video by FIFA but it's cool, more than 16 million people already watched it... so it's here.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e69138; font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #e69138; font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">I'm a big fan of Shakira, hope you enjoy it!</span><br />
<span style="color: #e69138; font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #e69138; font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Oh, Milan, her son is also in the video, very cute kicking a ball, showing talent just like daddy, Piquet!</span><br />

<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;">The Final Draw will be broadcasted live from fifa.com beginning at 1pm local time. (Costa do Sauípe - 03:00)</span><br />

</tbody></table>
<br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;">There are </span><span style="color: #444444; font-size: large;">32 teams</span><span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;">, that will be divided first into </span><span style="color: #444444; font-size: large;">4 bowls of 8 teams.</span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;">In the </span><span style="color: #444444; font-size: large;">bowl numer 1</span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #666666;"> will be added the </span><span style="color: #444444;">7 best teams</span><span style="color: #666666;"> according to FIFA Ranking of October 17th </span><span style="color: #444444;">plus Brazil</span><span style="color: #666666;">, the host country, those will be the seeded countries.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: inherit; font-size: large; line-height: 22px;"></span><br />
<ol><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: inherit; font-size: large; line-height: 22px;">
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">Spain</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">Germany</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">Argentina</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">Colombia</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">Belgium</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">Uruguay</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">Switzerland</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">Brazil</span></li>
</span></ol>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: inherit; font-size: large; line-height: 22px;">
</span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #666666;">Bowls number 2, 3 and 4 were divided having in mind the <u>geographical position</u> of each country.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;">So, bowl number 2 will have 5 African countries and 2 from South America: </span><i style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Algeria, </span><span style="font-size: large;">Côte d'Ivoire, </span><span style="font-size: large;">Nigeria, </span><span style="font-size: large;">Cameroon, Ghana, </span></i><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><i>Chile and Ecuador.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;">Bowl number 3 will have 4 Asian countries, and 4 from North and Central America: </span><i style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Australia, Japan, Iran, Korea Republic, </span></i><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><i>Costa Rica, Mexico, Honduras and USA.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;">Bowl number 4 will be formed by European countries only:</span><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><i><span style="font-size: large;"> </span><span style="font-size: large;">Croatia, France, Greece, </span></i></span><i style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Bosnia-Herzegovina,</span></i><i style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"> Netherlands, </span><span style="font-size: large;">Russia,</span><span style="font-size: large;"> </span><span style="font-size: large;">England, Italy and Portugal.</span></i><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;">Since the bowl number 2 has only 7 teams and bowl number 4 has 9, an European team will be randomly chosen to join bowl number 2.</span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;">After that the draw will get started.</span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;">The first teams to be divided are the seeds, Group A will have Brazil, the host country, as seed. They necessarily will be put in </span><span style="color: #444444; font-size: large;">position 1</span><span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;"> of that group.</span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;">In order to have more equally divided groups, FIFA decided that <u>shouldn't have be more than 2 teams from the same continent in each group</u>. Fair enough! </span><br />
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: right; text-align: right;"><tbody>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: x-small;"><i>Brazuca by Adidas</i></span></td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;">So… that one European team that will be transferred to bowl 2 will necessarily be part of a group which a South America team is the seed.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;">One more thing, if Chile or Ecuador end up in a team which the seed is a South American country, they will automatically be reallocated to a group in which an European country is the seed.</span></div>
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;">So far so good?</span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;">The other teams will be divided into 8 groups following the order of the draw.</span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;">I hope this post was helpful!</span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;">Good Luck!</span><br />
