ah okay, our news makes it sound like they just popped up now. and they have shown us the huge difference in classes from the slums to those who are all for the cup.
To be fair the protests are not about the Cup itself... it was happening already even before because other issues like public transport, hearth and others things (well the money spent on Cup too)... the Cup will be used to show to the world these protests but the policy like you said already dispersed them with gas bombs.
The public that is going to watch the cup today in stadium don't make protest... it is another class with more money and without live the Brazil's issues... so I don't expect to see protests inside the stadium... just outside with the policy dealing with it.
That my view of what is happening
Edit - Just to be clear... the Brazilian's protests are no near European's countries protests... these here are way light.
