Watching a game in Buenos Aires is very different from watching a football match in England. First we went to a restaurant, it was very different from the rest of the restaurants because it had no seats or tables so everyone had to stand up while they were eating.

The queue for the match was really long and we had to wait for about 20 minutes to get to the football stadium. We bought a Boca Juniors shirt. The match was Boca Juniors against Atletico Rafaela. When we got to the stadium the reserves were playing.

Then a man was giving out newspaper for everyone to tear and to throw into the air to welcome the players.It was like thousands of people throwing confetti at a wedding. Boca Juniors were home and Atletico Rafaela were away.

As soon as the game started the crowd started singing and about 20 people were playing the drums. The stadium was full of people and nobody could sit because there were roughly 55 thousand people in the stadium. There was also a man who was about 60 and he was jumping while singing.

There was a man put in jail for four years and he was the leader of the hooligans. He told someone else to be the leader when he was in jail and then he would be able to be the leader after he got out of jail. So now the leader went out of jail recently and he was there at the match and the new leader was there as well. The new leader wanted to carry on being the leader so we thought there might have been a fight but luckily there was not a fight.

The score at the end of the match was 3-1.The match was really exciting and fun. Today was a really good day.
