Enjoying the sport in Mexico City

"Lucha Libre" (free fighting). Mistico vs Volador.

Thursday 11 February 2010. In the "Arena México", finally the time arrived for the big finale, the defending champion Mistico vs Volador. Mistico throughout the whole match was clearly winning. He spent most of the time preening to the audience as his opponent lay on the floor. However, in the last minute Volador came through and won the match. We have no idea how!!!! Mistico though was not a gracious loser. He punched out the ref, floored Volador and then pulled off his trousers before stealing the belt and running off. Now really who is the champion??!! It was so funny, that we could not stop laughing. A genius night!!!

After the game, around "La Arena de México" in the street.




Video with my friend, Eric, before the game.



"Estadio Azteca", AMERICA 2, CRUZ AZUL 0.
                             "Estadio Azteca", is the only stadium ever to host two FIFA World Cup final matches, in 1970 and in 1986. With a capacity of 105,000, it is the largest stadium in Latin America and fifth largest in the world. Sunday February 15, 2010, I was in the stadium to see a game in the MEXICAN LEAGUE, AMERICA 2, CRUZ AZUL 0. Fantastico!!!
