1966 FIFA World Cup Finals - Brazil Training
Under the slate grey skies of north west England, footballers from the National team of Brazil, including Tostao and Pele, go through their paces at Bolton Wanderers' Bromwich Street training ground during preparations for the 1966 FIFA World Cup Finals, 8th July 1966. Brazil had originally expected to be training at Bolton's Burnden Park stadium, but as it was the close of the season in England, the pitch was not ready. After some discussions they accepted the use of the Bromwich Street ground with the proviso that they could use the medical facilities at Burnden Park and also that they should be served Coca Cola instead of tea after each training session. Brazil's matches were all played at Goodison Park in Liverpool, and they were eliminated from the competition at the group stage with a 3-1 defeat by Portugal on July 19th, 1966 ending their stay in the north west of England.
