Hi nachov, thanks for your input
However "amusing" and "funny" (not 'fun') are synonyms

About the 'stadium', in Brazil "estádio de futebol" doesn't necessarily mean a 'soccer stadium', it may refer to a small field where Brazilians play soccer on weekends just for fun. That's why I chose 'field' which conveys both meanings.

Eu retirava o 'they'...o sujeito gramatical está lá já..'Brazilians'....nao usava soccer...os ingleses usam football ....soccer usam mais os americanos.
exemplo: FIFA is Football Assoc. nao Soccer
