The biggest sporting event of the year has begun, the 2014 Soccer World Cup in Brazil, June 12 to July 13, and the excitement is rising. You can watch all the action from Rio and all the other match venues in the Royal Resorts bars: Sidelines at The Royal Sands, La Cabaña at The Royal Caribbean, the Sports Bar at The Royal Cancun and La Rotonda at The Royal Haciendas.

Grand Residences will also be transmitting matches at Heaven Beach Bar, the Lobby Bar and in the Flor de Canela salon.

Who will emerge victorious in 2014? Will home team Brazil win the Cup again, will Spain defend the title they won in South Africa four years ago or will England put years of disappointment behind them and rise to the occasion? And how will Mexico fare, will they build on their Olympic gold medal success? All will soon be revealed in this samba football fiesta.
