Today the Peruvian soccer team takes on the Chilean soccer team in an attempt to gain a spot in the next world cup. At least that's what it appears to be on the surface, however beneath this popular past-time lies a match that defines over a hundred years of strong emotions and feelings between the two countries. If you find yourself confused at this point than I suggest some further reading to get a better gist of the situation.
The game is only 30 minutes away and I am excited to see how Peru performs given their poor previous performances. After a night of dancing and debauchery I wait on the couch restlessly for the game to start while trying to recover from a headache that echoes of last night in my head. Oh well, when will I learn.
Well the game is about so I am off to sport my country. Arriba Peru!
