Fútbol!!

Last Saturday, I experienced a check point in my life. Something I'd always wanted to do since I was a little kid. 

Go to  professional soccer (or Fútbol!) game.

It is finally spring, and the orange blossoms were blooming, the smell was amazing.

A caffeine stop right before the game.. there were tons of people all making there way to the stadium.

There was an abundance of red.. the people here are serious fans.

And there it is... the stadium. Among the most beautiful sights I've ever seen in my life.

That was the guy who scored the winning goal for Spain in South Africa in the world cup.

My new favorite scarf.

Barcelona huddle up before the game... right now, they are the number one team in the word. Half the players of Spain's team for the world cup came from this team.

A drunk guy who wanted to take a picture.

Such an amazing moment. The whole stadium help up these papers to form red and white stripes in support of Sevilla while singing songs. 

It was truly a beautiful unifying moment.

Before the match

And the game begins!

Check out that elbow, that's a foul if I ever saw one.

Perfect form... but he missed :(

(Sevilla is white Barcelona is blue/red)

Penalty kick... they scored :(

And then Messi got the ball..

And that happened.

He was yelling, but yo can't really tell. These fans are hardcore.

A beautiful shot, but the damn goalie caught it.

The stadium.

Team spirit

Messi got the ball again

and then the first aid came out.

Look at that foul. Lying on his belly. Haha, no that's just acting, the player for Barcelona literally just ran by with the ball.

More theatrics, look at the dramatic fall.

Waiving the scarf in support

Some of the most intense fans o=out there. These guys didn't stop dancing/yelling/chanting/ whistling till the game ended.

And end it did. Barcelona being the best team in the world won unsurprisingly by 2-0 but Sevilla put up a good fight. It was a great game, and one that I will never forget.
