Coming Home

Well the trip is over and now it is time to go home. :(. When I attened the World Cup in Germany, after two weeks I wanted to come home. That is not the case this trip! I want to stay but with Argentina losing yesterday, I have to go. It is actually a good ending of my journey.

We went to the Argentina v Germany game yesterday afternoon and again, had great seats. We were behind the goal this game and actually loved it. You can see the entire field, the formations, the runs and close to goals. I had a great view of table mountain that was peeking through the opening of the top of the stadium, quite stunning!





It was a beautiful day, about 65 degrees and not a cloud in the sky. We walked down the beach to Greenpoint stadium. Up until the first German goal, things were going perfectly. Darryl and I went to our seats and I had the priveledge of sitting next to mostly Germans. The guy next to me was a bit older than me but very obnoxious. Just before kickoff he was talking trash and so was I. I was decked out with my Messi jersey, Arg flag, etc. So I kinda stuck out in the group of white shirts. About the 2nd minute Shweinsteiger was hit and gave them a free kick. It did not look like a foul to me so I stood up and told Shweinsteiger to "get up you little b*tch" in Spanish and the guy did not like that. It is normal for Argentina fans to cuss out the ref and the opponents. I was not the only one that stood up so it was normal.

We had an exchange of words and be told me to shut up. I told him, No..You shut up you damn kraut. Let's just say that he moved over a seat. lol. 5 minutes later, I realized that I may of been in the wrong and we both overreacted. I appologized to him and offered to buy him a beer but he declined it. He did accept my apology and we both watched the disaster unfold pretty tensely.

The game sucked and Argentina was absolute rubbish! We were outplayed, outclassed and outcoached. We had several problems starting with Otamendi's first mistake whiched to the first goal. 2nd our defense was not marking correctly and were jabbing at the ball. The Germans gameplan was great and again, just like England had deadly "text book" counter attacks. They deserved the win and now we'll se if they can past Spain. Should be a great ending to a crazy good world cup!

I am about to board the SAA flight 236 to London, first class of course. lol

Oh, for you TMZ junkies, Paris Hilton got arrested last night in Port Elizabeth for smoking dope on the streets. Can you say dumb ass!

Later...
