If you’re going to live in South America, you’ve got to like soccer. Futbol is THE sport here. There are other sports, but they don’t compare in popularity. Happily, I really like soccer. Since the last olympics in Korea when the U.S. did pretty good, I’ve been a fan of the sport. Here it’s much more fun to be a fan, because EVERYONE is a fan.
Last night Peru played Ecuador. We went to a restaurant to watch it with a group. The restaurant was packed with people watching the game. They had about 15 tvs and a big projection screen set up. It was fun cheering for Peru with all those Peruvians. It ended up in a tie, 2 to 2.
