Winner’s experience
The winner of the competition shared his emotions about winning and attending the match between AC Milan and Bologna (The winner’s story is shared with their consent).
How did you first hear about the giveaway, and what made you decide to enter?
I first saw an Instagram Ad about the giveaway. I decided to enter because visiting San Siro had always been part of my long-term plans and dreams.
What was your reaction when you found out you won?
I immediately called my travel buddy. We were both extremely excited about the trip and couldn’t wait to tell our families and the members of our “football WhatsApp chat” group that we had won.
What was the matchday like? Can you describe the atmosphere at the stadium? Was there a moment that gave you goosebumps?
The matchday was incredible. We made our way from the hotel to the San Siro stadium, and there were already lots of people there, celebrating, having drinks, and enjoying food. When we found our seats and looked around, it was the first time we both got goosebumps at the same time because we couldn’t believe we had actually made it.
What made this trip truly unforgettable for you? Would you do it again? And if so, where would you go next?
What made the trip unforgettable was the incredible atmosphere at the stadium and the celebration of AC Milan’s first goal. The Curva Sud [The AC Milan fan stand] was particularly impressive. After the match, we went out and met some Rossoneri [nickname for AC Milan because of their uniforms with red and black stripes] fans, and we ended up chatting with them in various bars around the stadium for most of the evening.
Of course, we would love to visit another stadium. Our next goal is to go to PAOK Thessaloniki because of their passionate fans, and we also want to explore Greece.
I would like to thank Boomerang Bet for a wonderful experience. Everything was perfectly organized, and I’d love to take part in future giveaways. Good luck to everyone!

Betano inaugura canchas revitalizadas en Brasilia con obras firmadas por artistas locales
Evento en el Parque da Cidade contó con la presencia de autoridades, deporte y arte, con obras de Mão y Toys; la acción forma parte de la iniciativa Betano en Movimiento
Con motivo de su 66.º aniversario, Brasilia recibió un regalo especial de Betano: dos canchas revitalizadas en el Parque da Cidade Sarah Kubitschek, en el corazón de la capital federal.
El nuevo espacio, que cuenta con obras de los artistas locales Toys (@toys) y Mão (@mao.arte), fue inaugurado en un evento este sábado (11) y contó con un circuito de básquet 3×3 organizado por CUFA-DF y presentaciones culturales.
El evento marcó un nuevo capítulo en la historia del parque, reconocido como el mayor parque urbano de América del Sur y uno de los más grandes del mundo.
La revitalización de las canchas forma parte de la iniciativa Betano en Movimiento, que busca ampliar el acceso al deporte y a la actividad física mediante la recuperación de espacios públicos y la promoción de actividades deportivas comunitarias.
“Es una alegría estar en un momento tan simbólico, entregando un regalo que será un legado para la ciudad. Para las obras de las canchas, buscamos valorar artistas locales que aportaran la identidad de Brasilia al espacio, conectando arte y deporte”, afirmó Guilherme Figueiredo, Director de Relaciones Institucionales de Betano.
Inauguración con canasta y corte de cinta
La inauguración comenzó con una primera canasta anotada por Renato Junqueira, Secretario de Deporte y Ocio del Distrito Federal.
Tras recibir una asistencia de los artistas Mão y Toys, el secretario encestó en ambas canchas.
“Nos sentimos muy honrados de recibir este regalo de Betano para nuestra ciudad.
Este parque es icónico, democrático y accesible, y esta alianza es fundamental. Estoy seguro de que todos los que vengan a jugar aquí luego comentarán lo bonito y colorido que es el espacio.
Se convertirá en una referencia dentro del parque”, declaró durante la ceremonia.

También presente en el evento, la gobernadora del Distrito Federal, Celina Leão, destacó la importancia de la revitalización.
“Queremos sumar aliados que aporten valor. Hoy aquí se puede ver movimiento, arte y deporte ocurriendo al mismo tiempo. Estoy muy feliz de participar. Soy atleta, me gusta el deporte y lo practico todos los días.
Estoy segura de que abre puertas y cambia la mentalidad de las personas. Agradezco a los socios que hicieron posible este momento.
Las canchas están tan bonitas que dan ganas de quedarse”, comentó, tras también encestar en las canchas.
Obras inspiradas en Brasilia
Con colores vivos en tonos de azul, naranja y amarillo, las intervenciones artísticas rinden homenaje a los íconos, la arquitectura y el paisaje de Brasilia.
La ejecución técnica estuvo a cargo de Hoopers, dando continuidad a un proyecto iniciado en Río de Janeiro, con una cancha inaugurada por el jugador de baloncesto Giannis Antetokounmpo, estrella de los Milwaukee Bucks en la NBA.
El artista Daniel Morais, conocido como Toys, explicó que buscó trasladar al espacio las líneas rectas y angulares típicas de los edificios de la ciudad, además de rendir homenaje a su fundador.
“La historia de Brasilia y de sus pioneros es increíble. Juscelino Kubitschek fue el primer soñador: creyó en una idea y la hizo realidad al construir la capital. Es muy especial ver mi arte formando parte de la vida de las personas, como si ellas también participaran en la obra”, afirmó.
Por su parte, Luis Fernando Santos, conocido como Mão, incorporó elementos icónicos y de la fauna local, destacando el lobo-guará, el caracará y la Plaza de los Cristales.

“Fue una experiencia muy especial poder hacer un trabajo para Brasilia, aún más en el Parque da Cidade. Intenté representar los colores del lugar, la fauna, la flora y también sus monumentos. Es muy gratificante ver a la gente usando la cancha que pinté.
Espero que sigan aprovechando este espacio y que los inspire a conectarse cada vez más”, señaló.
Impulso al deporte y la cultura
El evento también incluyó un circuito de básquet 3×3 en colaboración con la Central Única de las Favelas (CUFA-DF). En esta modalidad, equipos de tres jugadores compiten en partidos rápidos en media cancha.

Gana el equipo que alcanza primero los 21 puntos o, si se cumple el límite de 10 minutos, el que haya anotado más canastas.
En la categoría masculina participaron equipos como Guariroba Raptors, ESCS, Capital Basquete y Gama 3×3, mientras que en la femenina compitieron Ipê Rosa, AAAESCS, PCDF y AVABRA.
Durante los intervalos, el público disfrutó de presentaciones de breaking con los b-boys Navarro 061, Breakmove y Nathan, y la b-girl Thaty. La música estuvo a cargo del DJ Afrika, y la conducción del evento por Alex Hadda y Cami Abreu.

Unidad móvil de mamografías ofreció exámenes gratuitos
Como parte de la acción, la unidad móvil de mamografías de la Fundación Laço Rosa ofreció exámenes gratuitos para la detección precoz del cáncer de mama.
La unidad también estará presente en Cidade Estrutural y en la Rodoviária los días 14 y 15 de abril. Para participar, es necesario registrarse previamente en el sitio www.mamografiasalva.com.br.
