Waldo students and staff discuss World Cup

By Heriberto Padilla and Rosio Lopez

The FIFA World Cup is only a couple of weeks away. The tournament is between June 11th and July 11th. They will start the games soon, then some teams will be in the tournament. The first World Cup was in 1930s. The winner of that World Cup was Uruguay. But this year will be different. There will be many teams but only one champion. I (Heriberto) think that Brazil will win. I (Rosio) don't have any idea who will win. Here are some people we interviewed about the teams who might win:
