All four freestylers have spent more than a decade learning their craft, and know each other from competitions.
Their performances involve them interacting, tossing balls to each other and spinning them round.
Popular tricks include the 'Stall', where the ball is caught on part of the body, such as the neck.
Learning these tricks takes hours of practice.
The freestylers started learning their craft as children, watching videos on YouTube and practicing at home.
Visitors at the Brazilian pavilion enjoy watching the freestyle footballers' performance.
