Chilean soccer fans once again demonstrated their enthusiasm for the World Cup. Local media said that four Chilean fans tried to use fake tickets to "break into" the gate of Maracana Stadium in Rio de Janeiro for the match between Chile and Spain on June 18, but they were arrested by local police for their efforts.
"We know these are fake tickets, but we still wanted to try our luck," said Gonzalo Flores, 37, of Santiago. Maracana Stadium was filled with Chilean fans on June 18 and many people were standing in front of the stadium before the game holding signs reading: "I need a ticket."
