:00:07. > :00:17.but it's definitely still hotting up over in Brazil.
:00:18. > :00:20.Yes, we're live from Copacabana Beach in Rio.
:00:21. > :00:22.England's final game of the tournament kicks off
:00:23. > :00:26.in just over half an hour and we've got more on that coming up.
:00:27. > :00:30.But joining me now are two of the Brazilian fans we've met
:00:31. > :00:43.We're about halfway through - has the World Cup lived up to
:00:44. > :01:02.A little bit. Brazil could have been better. Yes, because Brazil has the
:01:03. > :01:05.support of the country. Of coffee fans are right behind team Brazil at
:01:06. > :01:10.last night and their amazing victory over Cameroon. And we will be
:01:11. > :01:14.talking more about that because you guys were watching that game. They
:01:15. > :01:19.will be playing Chile in the knockout stages. How did you find
:01:20. > :01:27.their performance? It was good but it could have been a better score. I
:01:28. > :01:38.think it was Brazil it -- brilliant because Brazil one. One of the
:01:39. > :01:41.things I love about much day is the Brazilian flag and the atmosphere
:01:42. > :01:43.inside the stadium last night, which we rate -- which really was
:01:44. > :01:44.electric. Of course, last night
:01:45. > :01:47.the host nation won their group with They'll now play Chile
:01:48. > :01:50.in the knockouts. Very quickly, what did you guys
:01:51. > :01:57.think of last night?s performance? But away from the stadiums, I've
:01:58. > :02:00.been finding out that Brazil is still a country where there's
:02:01. > :02:03.a big gap between those with money You can see more pictures of Leah's
:02:04. > :02:15.trip to the favela Welcome to Rio. Home of the big
:02:16. > :02:18.spenders. Brazil is now the seventh richest country in the world, and
:02:19. > :02:23.for many in this city, it means living a life of luxury. For younger
:02:24. > :02:28.girls here, the more money you have, the bigger a party you can throw.
:02:29. > :02:33.Debutante balls are huge birthday parties thrown for 15-year-old girls
:02:34. > :02:37.by the richest families in Brazil. Tens of thousands of pounds splashed
:02:38. > :02:43.out on venues, dressers and celebrity guests. All for one night.
:02:44. > :02:48.Julia and her friends have been to several of these parties. What are
:02:49. > :02:53.they like? usually, there is a theme for the party. They have attractions
:02:54. > :02:57.based on the theme. We once went to a party based on a circus. They had
:02:58. > :03:06.people doing tricks. They had jugglers, too. Sometimes you don't
:03:07. > :03:15.know the girl but you go anyway. There has to be a good DJ and well
:03:16. > :03:21.decorated. Be just a stone's throwaway, is one of real's famous
:03:22. > :03:27.novellas. One in five of the city's residents live in a favela. They are
:03:28. > :03:30.homes packed together in a sprawling maze of streets and alleyways.
:03:31. > :03:35.Although these communities are often called slums, homes are made of
:03:36. > :03:40.cement and break and the vast majority of people have electricity
:03:41. > :03:45.and running water. Raphael has lived in the Dona Mata favela his whole
:03:46. > :03:50.life. Can you describe to us what life is like here? It looks very
:03:51. > :03:55.colourful. I have freedom to play here, to play with kites and to play
:03:56. > :03:59.football. . It was not safe some years ago because of the crime. Do
:04:00. > :04:05.you ever think about life away from here? Sometimes I would prefer to
:04:06. > :04:10.live in the streets. But here, I have a lots of fun. I can play
:04:11. > :04:13.football anywhere, imagine being football in these buildings!
:04:14. > :04:18.Football can change your reality. You can be part -- proud of playing
:04:19. > :04:23.football and have a good future. For years, favela is like this work the
:04:24. > :04:27.act to poverty and violence. Although the gap between rich and
:04:28. > :04:31.bow across Brazil is still huge, children alike Raphael and Julia,
:04:32. > :04:36.although living, legally separate lives, have the same hopes and
:04:37. > :04:41.dreams for the future. While some consider these places to be slums,
:04:42. > :05:03.life is changing here in Dona Mata. Of course, the children of the
:05:04. > :05:06.favelas, have the best view of Rio. England kick their final game in
:05:07. > :05:10.Costa Rica at 5pm. Whatever happens in that game, they are going
:05:11. > :05:13.straight back home afterward. Throughout this tournament may been
