Very humane! Congratulations!
This explains why Eros did not appear thus often last year.
Glad that he managed to beat the cancer.
Superb action by the officials, great.
Bad news:
Proença attacked
The referee Pedro Proenca was hit Monday with a header in the Centro Comercial Colombo, having suffered injuries in the mouth and two broken teeth.

Hmm, I wonder why this kit is green.
Actually, they wore the new dark one, black with green lines.
Perhaps it was the replacement-kit?
