A young fan at Salt Lake stadium on Sunday. (Pabitra Das)Salt Lake: Yuba Bharati staked a claim to be called Maracana Krirangan as Brazil romped to the U-17 World Cup semi-final by defeating Germany 2-1 on Sunday evening. The clash of the football super powers was a repeat of the senior World Cup semi-final in 2014. In fact, the sea of yellow in the Salt Lake stands would have made Rio de Janeiro's Maracana, which hosted the last World Cup final, proud. "This is what I came for... Hope this will silence the Brazil supporters for a while," Salt Lake resident Pradip Das, a techie, said in the gallery.
