copa america

i only saw 15 mins of the peru vs bolivia match on the first day of copa america, and i can say i saw more excitement in the match than greece's quarter-finals, semi-finals and the finals combined. and i also saw a magnificent goal, which put bolivia up by 2 goals (i missed peru's stunning come back to draw, sadly due to breakfast) with a wonderful piece of skill where a player went on one on one with the keeper at the left edge of the penalty box, where the player than flicked the ball behind to catch the keeper off guard, and then score from the tightest of angles, from quite a distance, almost near the edge of the box.

wonderful. and this was between the modest teams. i cant wait to see mexico, argentina and brazil come into action.
