Supporters from the Brazilian team chanted their traditional songs in Orlando, with the Tricolor confirmed just days before the start of the tournament.
ORLANDO, FL - "Bora, Bahea". The Tricolor fans didn't save their breath this Thursday night as Bahia prepared for its Florida Cup debut against Wolfsburg. Surprised with the chance to watch their favourite team in the United States - the Salvador-based club was confirmed days before the tournament started following Internacional and Flamengo withdrawals - the Tricolores tried to make the most of the opportunity.
Striker Hernane - nicknamed 'Brocador', or The Driller in Portuguese -, midfielder Juninho and newly arrived Pablo Armero were the favourites of the fans' bets to shine at Orlando's ESPN Wide World of Sports complex against the Wolves from Germany, who brough their U-23 players to Florida Cup.
