Football game and Plaza Dorrego
We just got home from the football game. Boca beat a higher-ranked local team called Velez. I was amazed at the passion of the fans. They sang pretty much non-stop for the whole game. Loving lyrics like "We will always follow you, Boca" and violent lyrics like "Your mother is a *!#$@# and you are a *@#$!"
Boca won 3-2. They scored two amazing goals: one hit the top bar of the goal and the other was a header from almost midfield.
After the game we got empanadas at a local restaurant, Cumana, and got ice cream at Freddo's.
We spent the early part of the afternoon at Plaza Dorrego, where we saw street tango dancers, a traditional orchestra, and street vendors, and we ate on a balcony overlooking the square.
