He will sing first the Briton Robbie Williams and then join the Russian soprano Aida Garifullina. In addition will be on behalf of the players Brazilian Ronaldo, world champion with his selection in the United States 94 and Korea-Japan 2002.

"The inaugural party is always very symbolic; It is that moment when you realize that the great moment you've been waiting for four years, as a player or an amateur, has finally arrived. No one knows what will happen in the four weeks of the championship, but everyone is sure to be memorable, "Ronaldo said.

"Of course, it's also an emotional party for the hosts. After so much hard work, all of a sudden, the whole world has gathered in your own home to celebrate their love of football. I felt it in Brazil four years ago, and now I am happy to share this emotion also with the Russians "continued the idol of Brazil.

The event will have a slightly different format than those seen in previous editions. It'll be easier and it will last less time. The show is scheduled half an hour before the start of the first competition game, between the local and Saudi Arabia, at 12 o'clock (Argentina time).

However, there is something that will remain the same: the basic theme, which is to pay homage not only to football but also to the host country. This time, through an interpretation by Garifullina, one of the most acclaimed young voices in Russia.
