"No es un sueño, México ganó el oro!"
We got up early and watched the first half of the Olympic gold medal soccer match (Mexico vs. Brazil) at home. At halftime we threw on our shoes and ran down the street to watch the rest of the match with our new best friends at the sports bar. The video shows us celebrating Mexico's second goal.
When Mexico won the match and the gold, they made history: the first Mexicans to win a gold medal in ANY Olympics, in ANY sport.
As time was called on the game, the Mexico coach -- very subdued gentleman in a dark suit, perfect helmet hair -- took two steps onto the field and sank to his knees. He had to be helped back to a standing position.
"It's not a dream, Mexico won the gold!"
Upside down exclamation point Hola! Very fun for you guys. We skipped the Olympics this year almost entirely...no...I would say entirely, but am glad you got to yell in public. Back to tanks.
