I was there
I’ve never really been into soccer, but the world cup is being hosted in my country and it is impossible to get swept into the excitement of it all. I was lucky enough to go and see the Portugual vs Korea DPR game yesterday. All I can say is that was an amazing experience. Being one of 60 000 people in a stadium where a worldwide event is being televised to millions is really something special.
The atmosphere in the stadium was awesome. Everybody looked so happy blowing their vuvuzelas, taking many pictures and screaming for Christiano Ronaldo. The score ended up being 7 Portugual – Korea DPR 0. I’m really glad I got to see that! It’s not everyday that 7 goals are scored by one team in one game.
I brought my point-and-shoot camera along so we could snap some quick pics.
We had tequillas to warm up before we walked to the stadium.

Waiting for the stadium to fill up. That’s me in the green hoodie.
Budweiser, the only beer for sale which isn’t usually sold in South Africa.

The Portuguese going for a goal.
A packed stadium.
I’m always looking around for awesome fashion and I spotted this woman wearing these killer boots on the way back from the stadium. Wow! I admire for wearing those to a world cup match. There’s lots of walking involved. Fierce!
Hope all this talk of soccer didn’t bore you.
Great post! OMG, i need those boots in my life!! dying to find a new pair for winter

@Melissa, those boots are insane! I wish I could have asked her where she bought it. I didn’t get a chance as she was walking very fast!
