Security was tightened from the Sheraton Hanoi Hotel to My Dinh Stadium after the Brazilian Olympic team leaders complained to the Vietnam Football Federation that the welcome from Vietnamese fans at Hanoi’s Noi Bai International Airport on Tuesday had been “too crazy.”

The Brazilian football superstars were taken to the stadium through a back door. They had about one and a half hours of practice under tight security and Hanoi football fans were kept outside the closed stadium.

The Brazilians did a warm-up for about half an hour, then some running exercises before splitting into two groups for strategic practice and then goal shooting practice. After the session, the Brazilian team was taken out of the stadium through a back door and back to the hotel.

Vietnamese fans must wait for today’s training session to see if they are allowed into the stadium to watch their idols. If not, tomorrow’s friendly match at My Dinh Stadium will be fans only chance to see the Brazilian team in action.
