Football

The big passion around here for the boys is football (soccer to us Yanks). They would play it all day long if they had the chance. Even the men love it. Right now the big European tournament is in full swing, and they think nothing of getting up at 1:45 a.m. to watch. Here is a video of some of the boys playing on the cement playground. The "field" (mostly scrub grass and rocks) is being used right now, so they have to play on this. You can see that either barefoot or with flip-flops, the passion is there.



And naturally, I have to put up a picture of the winning goalie who gave up only one goal in the entire game.
