Loved what you wrote — and the photo that goes with it. It’s great fun to see soccer in Europe or South America.
Sarah, thank you. I too love soccer as played around the world, but especially in the Mexican/Latin America/South America/European zones. There is a passion and drama on the field and in the stands that cannot be beat. I watched a Boca Juniors game in a bar on tv. I wanted to see it in person. Tickets all sold out. A man told me, even if you could get a ticket, get two. Take a hefty male with you. You’ll need it.
