A few of us went to the Brazil vs Argentina football final tonight, it was fun. Argentina won (1-0), wouldn?t say they deserved the win as I feel that Brazil played better overall, especially in the 2nd half. Oh well, thats football.
Half the fun is the crowd, the Olympic stadium was alive, with both countries taunting each other with music and singing.
It almost felt like being back in the UK watching football
The American ambassador and his wife sat 30ft away from us with a couple of ?goons? in dark glasses. He sat right on the edge of a massive group of the most vocal Brazilian fans. It was funny to see the ?goons? in action when a group of Argentinean supports celebrated their victory by running into that part of the crowd
The downside was the army all over the place with their M-16?s. God only knows what impression this gives a visitor!
All in all, lots of fun!
