Unthought happiness
At the middle of june during 2015, just like the mayority of the country I was supporting to the chilean soccer team which was facing the Copa América here in Chile. I had some meetings with friends to watch the previous matches until semifinals. Everything was great because I had never seen the national team reaching a final match. Sometimes I like to read about the history of soccer and since my childhood I always dreamt about Chile winning something important. I am a fan of the local team Cobreloa, but this province's team is almost dead (by several institutional reasons, anyways), so the only hope I had was "La roja de todos".
A few days before the final match, I received a funny and mysterious call from my cousin, I remember this:
-"Hi, David just let me ask you something, but you just have to answer the question, don't ask me back "how did you do..." or something like that".
so I say
-"ok what's up?".
- "I have tickets for the Copa America final, do you want to go with us?"
and my answer was obvious...
- "yes!"
After that, I just waited with all my illusion that historic match of Chile againts Argentina. I was so happy because I never imagined to be there that day actually. When Chile won the trophy we took a lot of bad photos because of the poor light in that spot, but anyways, I rescued this one because it shows to the world that I was really there in that unforgettable moment for chilean soccer!
PS: The famous "33 miners" from copiapo were next to us watching the match, hilarious!

And of course I demanded the Farkas' Chilean flag!

Hello David
ResponderEliminarYour story is very entertaining, I think we were all very aware of the TV that day. Good thing you could go to the stadium, I did not go to see them but I went to celebrate in Plaza Italia.
