Argentina vs. Mexico


Last night Argentina played Mexico in the semifinals of the Copa America, the largest tournament in South America between nations. Argentina came in the favorite of the tournament and has proved to be so. Last night Beckie and I, along with the Gallegos' watched the game on a large screen at Beckie's work. Argentina started slow but came out and dominated the second half highlighted by this incredible goal by Leo Messi. It's much more difficult than it looks. The other goals scored by Gabriel Heinze and Riquelme were brilliant as well. We play Brazil on Sunday for the final.

That really was such a good goal although my favorite was the left footed first one. I actually am starting to love Argentine soccer, what are you doing to me?

I wanted to just comment that that is a very unflattering picture of Messi.

love you
