Flamengo to play Corinthians in Palestine

Globo.com (in Portuguese)

Though a time and venue have yet to be agreed, a meeting was held on Monday to announce the match.

The match is set to be billed as Jogo da Paz, or the Game of Peace, in the same fashion as a Haiti v Brazil friendly match from 2004. Like Port-au-Prince, Ronaldo is likely to feature in Palestine. The Flamengo side is set to include Adriano.

In 2008, Palestine opened the Faisal Al-Husseini Stadium in Al-Ram, north of East Jerusalem. The first match saw Palestine hold neighboring Jordan to a 1-1 draw. The 7,000-seat ground was build with help from a grant given by FIFA's GOAL program.
