Forty teenagers under the care of Lar S\u00edrio Pr\u00f3-Inf\u00e2ncia were invited by the <strong>Arab Brazilian Chamber of Commerce<\/strong> to watch the match between Tunisia and Belgium in the museum\u2019s large screen and have breakfast. Despite the 5 to 2 score in favor of the Europeans, the teenagers said they enjoyed the experience, cheering with each Tunisian goal and until the end.<\/p>\n<p>Giovanna Clemente Ferreira, 13 years old, has been going to Lar S\u00edrio for two years now. Vinicius Kenji Ferreira, 14 years old, has been under the care of the organization for 6 years; both said their favorite classes are cuisine and percussion. \u201cWe already learned how to cook Arab recipes, it\u2019s very cool,\u201d said Giovanna. Both had already visited the Soccer Museum before and were glad to come this time.<\/p>\n<p>Lar S\u00edrio is a non-profit civil society organization that began to operate as a shelter 95 years ago. Currently, they take care of children and teenagers in a vulnerable situation, from daycare to 21 years old, and offer extra-curricular activities, such as dance, music, cuisine, arts and sports classes.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u00a0<\/em><em>(Continues after the photo gallery)<\/em><\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-196338 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/tunisia-brings-cheering-crowd-soccer-museum\/sat_3154t-2\/'><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/SAT_3154t-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail wp-image-196319\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-196319\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-196319'>\n\t\t\t\tTunisia and Belgium on the large screen of the Soccer Museum\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/tunisia-brings-cheering-crowd-soccer-museum\/sat_3251t-2\/'><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/SAT_3251T-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail wp-image-196325\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-196325\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-196325'>\n\t\t\t\tGiovanna Clemente Ferreira, a student at Lar S\u00edrio\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/tunisia-brings-cheering-crowd-soccer-museum\/sat_3258t-2\/'><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/SAT_3258T-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail wp-image-196327\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-196327\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-196327'>\n\t\t\t\tVinicius Kenji Ferreira, a student at Lar S\u00ecrio\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/tunisia-brings-cheering-crowd-soccer-museum\/sat_3281t-2\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/SAT_3281T-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail wp-image-196333\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-196333\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-196333'>\n\t\t\t\tRubens Hannun and William Adib Dib Jr.\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/tunisia-brings-cheering-crowd-soccer-museum\/sat_3222t-2\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/SAT_3222T-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail wp-image-196323\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-196323\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-196323'>\n\t\t\t\tTunisian Slim Fsili\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/tunisia-brings-cheering-crowd-soccer-museum\/sat_3199t-2\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/SAT_3199T-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail wp-image-196321\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-196321\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-196321'>\n\t\t\t\tThe Zitouni family (L) with Ramy Mustafa and Rubens Hannun\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/tunisia-brings-cheering-crowd-soccer-museum\/sat_3305t-2\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/SAT_3305T-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail wp-image-196331\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-196331\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-196331'>\n\t\t\t\tTunisia&#8217;s second goal brought joy to the crowd\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>\u201cThis type of action, combining sports and the Arab culture, is very important. This opportunity that the Arab Chamber offered to us was really great,\u201d said William Adib Dib Jr., president of Lar S\u00edrio and legal director of the Arab Chamber. The Arab Chamber\u2019s president, Rubens Hannun, added that the integration that sports bring is very important, brings people closer to the cultures and, in this case, of the Arab culture. After the end of the game, the teenagers took a tour of the Soccer Museum.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the Lar S\u00edrio children, three Tunisians came to the Soccer Museum to watch the game. Slim Fsili has been living in Brazil for over 11 years and said that it was always a dream of his to live in the country. In Tunisia, he used to work in the tourism and olfactory marketing sectors and, here, he opened a travel agency specialized in his home country and in the African continent, the Gold Experiences.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Mustpha and Hana Zitouni, father and daughter from Tunisia, arrive here only five months ago and don\u2019t speak Portuguese yet. With the help of Egyptian Ramy Mustafa, Arab Relations executive of the Arab Chamber, ANBA was able to talk with the family.<\/p>\n<p>Mustpha is 64 years old and his 26-year-old daughter came to Brazil with her four kids, of six, three, one year and three months old. She\u2019s married with a Syrian that lives in Saudi Arabia and that is waiting for his visa to come to S\u00e3o Paulo to meet his family. \u201cLife in Tunisia is rough and here the system works better, we have been enjoying the country, especially the freedom and equality,\u201d said Mustpha. The family said they lived for 22 years in Saudi Arabia before coming to Brazil.<\/p>\n<p>After telling his history, ANBA asked him about the game. Mustpha smiled and said he was happy that Tunisia competed in the World Cup and that, despite the defeat, the team played well, that Belgium was the better team.<\/p>\n<p>Tunisia\u2019s national soccer team played against Belgium in the second round of the group stage of the 2018 Russia FIFA World Cup. The team played well, but in the end lost, 5 to 2. Dylan Bronn and Wahbi Khazri scored Tunisia\u2019s goals. The Arab country from North Africa is in last place in Group G, but still has a chance to advance to the round 16. In the third round of the group stage, they face Panama, on Thursday (28), at 3 pm.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Translated by S\u00e9rgio Kakitani <\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"credits-overlay\" data-target=\".wp-image-196317\">S\u00e9rgio Tomisaki\/ANBA<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In an initiative of the Arab Chamber, 40 teenagers under the care of the Lar S\u00edrio Pr\u00f3-Inf\u00e2ncia watched the game.
