Rousseff Taunted at World Cup Opener as Brazil Defeats Croatia

Soccer fans taunted Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff as she watched the national team beat Croatia in the opening match of the World Cup in Sao Paulo.

Spectators at the Arena Corinthians stadium jeered the president several times this evening, repeating expletive chants with her name before the opening whistle and after the final one. Cheers provoked by a home team goal turned into boos when the stadium monitor showed Rousseff celebrating.
