00:00The Haitian national team has yet to face the Brazilian side in the ongoing FIFA World Cup.
00:06Meanwhile in Haiti, the mood is so hyped with lots of expectations.
00:10The streets of the capital, Port-au-Prince, are decorated with Haitian flags and posters of the Haitian players
00:15where in previous World Cups, Brazil's green and yellow will be on display.
00:21All I will say is we are going to fight to beat Brazil tomorrow. That's all I have to say.

00:34which makes some Haitians hopeful they might have a chance against Brazil.
00:42I think that if I could see Haiti beat Brazil 3-0, it would be a great celebration, a very
00:49big celebration.

01:02and uniting around their soccer team as it faces Brazil,
01:06the most successful powerhouse in the World Cup's history.
01:09That's all for good on Earth.
