On 9 November 2025, the Pestalozzi Children's Village was a guest at the 'Jogo dos Famosos'. Ronaldinho, Rivaldo and Yakin & Co. provided plenty of spectacle and entertainment on the pitch. Off the pitch: powerup_radio and four young presenters commentating live on the match.
Yellow and red spectator stands, painted posters and loud cheers as the former internationals entered the pitch. But it wasn't just a spectacle on the pitch, but also in the press box. On this autumn evening, Lucia, Arun, Eliah and David gathered in the swissporarena in Lucerne to commentate live on the 'Jogo dos Famosos'.
Gala on and off the pitch
The friendly match between Ronaldinho and Yakin's teams offered spectators football at its finest. It wasn't just the Brazilian stars with their dance routines that caused a lot of excitement and repeated shouts of 'Olé'.
The 'Jogo dos Famosos' offered both sporting entertainment and a platform for social commitment. Thanks to its presence as a charity partner, the Pestalozzi Children's Foundation was able to draw attention to the central role of education for children and young people.
For the young powerup_radio team, being in the press box was a special experience: not only were they up close and personal, they also commented on the action live and provided listeners with impressions from the sidelines. Moments that show how social commitment and education go hand in hand.
