Just viewed a Breakfast TV show here in Lima, where on the sports section they had about a 1 hour wrap of the game in Barcelona. Each guest doing a little salsa dance as they came onto the stage. They showed pretty normal match highlights up to the goal, which they then replayed about 15 times for full analysis! They then broke down the happy pitch invader's run about 4 times (he hugged the goal scorer). That was then the end of highlights. Nothing of Waine's no goal. Just the good stuff. Plenty of interviews of expat Peruvian at the game 'muy emotivo'. A young girl in tears because the GK gave her one of his gloves.
I did notice when the proper sports journo started talking about Australia (didn't really mention UAE) as being tough opponents, the carnival studio mode briefly stopped. But it soon restarted when they bought on Yoshi Youton's rather portly madre. Who also did a bit of dance. Then they showed Youton's first half shot rebounding off the cross bar about 10 times, whilst his mama chatted away.
Somewhere in Costa Rica will no doubt be similar high quality TV offerings. She is pretty shark economically & politically here in Peru at the moment. The football team is one bright spot, and escape outlet. Things will get very very gloomy, if it all implodes and they lose their Playoff next week. Plenty of pressure on both the Peru players and coach, to make a nation a little happy for the next 6 months up to Nov-Dec. I'm sure in CR there are very similar high expectations of making it to Qatar. Losing not an option.
What a day. Stirring performance from the All Whites. And those fans! (Love this guys gesture at the end…) pic.twitter.com/As1nfTD1gA
Dude is wearing an Allianza top - biggest club in Peru.
