Football is without a doubt, the sport that stirs more passion in our country.
Si. Despite not having a World Cup qualifier in the last 25 years and our teams do not pass the first rounds of international competitions. We, the Peruvians, we feed the feeling that we often kills and a few others as we relive the final match with Argentina.
The chances of qualifying for South Africa 2010 were as or more difficult to find a decent congressman. And future prospects were not promising anything. Monumental Stadium was packed with people. Sold out 2 days before the game, and the resale was through the roof. Signs in the stadium did not encourage the selection, but suggested strongly and insults save the output of corrupt leaders who are frozen forever in our country.
The truth is that the stadium is not overflowing with both the desire to encourage our team to win but with the arrival of many superstars of the world's major leagues. Names like Messi, Aguero and Riquelme aroused the most lurking admiration, even from people saying they do not like football much. Not to mention the girls.
Kickoff heralded the beginning party, at first impression was a game of balance, a great team with great history and great laurels as Argentina, Peru faced a combined maimed in your best "goal cards" and come down in the past Things like that we all know. However
passing of the game is to hard to understand, somehow this limited equipment and little stars, was achieved by a high concentration constant struggle to maintain equality.
Messi and Aguero on his brilliant bursts of individuality were controlled tactical rigor Rainer Torres and De la Haza did prevail. Juan Vargas, perhaps our most famous player, for the left wing engages in a duel with Javier Zanetti himself. Riquelme perfect passes were no longer a threat due to the anticipations of the most intelligent Zambrano rookie. And the Argentina defense saw nothing easier to start from the bottom with advanced markings of Fano and Chavez.
So with the air and pulling the handle the referee announced the end of the first half.
After a long time saw a team with such dedication and concentration, fighting inch by inch split any ball. Sports commentators boasting of their wisdom were locked in discussions light on the attitude to be taken by the team for the second time. I walked
finishing order some things for when I was informed that the second half had begun. Iban 10 minutes and Peru played as ever. Names such as Fano, Chavez, Alva and Rengifo before players overshadowed by horse and sexual hobbies, were killed on the court and risked their lives in each ball. Did not miss a hot moment, like when I try to download Zanetti Fano and this immediately stood up and made to respect the house. Or when Demichelis intimidate Zambrano dueling ball situations.
was difficult to conceive as we had been ignoring them, when ever we needed.
Norberto Solano deserves special mention that despite his age and injuries have worsened, expertise I bring to class and share talent and ideas that made Peru, at times, marginalize the Argentine team. The minutes passed and move after move the Peruvian team gave us hope. EL Loco Vargas with the attitude that characterizes him giving us another concern. Peruvian goal was near.
night suddenly came to us. The chocolate cake I ate while watching the game was more bitter than ever. Argentina had taken the only concentration which Peru had the whole game for us a goal "wimp" as would any knowledgeable person pichanguero football. This illusion that Peru had given us in those over 80 minutes had gone, there had been air. Resigned
decided to see what was left of the party. Although it was assumed the end, usually when Peru will make a goal late in the game, goes to hell. Or you make 3 more or rival takes pity on us and keep the difference score of 1.
While watching the final minutes kept thinking about the bad luck we had. We played well (the usual). We played the final minute. The result was really unfair. Argentina had done nothing to deserve to win that game, and as a sports journalist said at the moment, "to merit not win games." However
countenance of the players had declined, remained focused and alert, playing as if they never would have made the goal. Messi was projected by our left flank and it scampered Juan Vargas, Juan Vargas takes the ball, Juan Vargas sent a pass forward that Rengifo back wall as a delayed, Juan Vargas embarks on a chop to the Argentine countryside, Juan Vargas endures pressure of Battaglia, Battaglia brings Juan Vargas, Juan Vargas is still running, Juan Vargas looks at the goal box, this Fano, Juan Vargas throws a pass. Fano do what they know.
That day tied with Argentina 1-1 Peru. Everyone says that Peru deserved to win, but I repeat the words of the journalist "are not won with merit parties "
The truth is that I also believe that Peru deserved to win, but today with that goal that we all cried, I got more of Peru. And do not know if this selection is to go global or not, the only thing is that this selection, my choice, I will see to the end.
