Central American football

Went to see El Salvador v Costa Rica in a World Cup Qualifier. It was a fantastic night. El Salvador is home to the biggest stadium in Central America "Estadio Cuscatlan" although it's not that big by UK standards with a capacity of 35,000.
Last night's game was pretty important and it was vital that they won. There are now two games left to play and they have to win them both if they are going to stand any chance of making the World Cup. They also need other results to go their way and even then they might only make the play off place. In that case they have to play the 5th placed South American team, currently Argentina. Oh dear!

The National Anthem


Traditionally, during the opposition's anthem, the El Salvador fans turn their backs on the pitch and raise their middle fingers.


Obviously, I had to join in!


Sim looks on unimpressed.

Not exactly Match of the Day, but the best I could do given my limited equipment. Enjoy!!
