Mexico vs China at Qwest Field
4/16/08 Seattle I had been waiting for this for a while now, I've been here for almost nine years now and it's about time. I finally got to see "El Tri" The Mexican national football team live, with Genie. Almost 10 years ago I saw them defeat Brazil 4-3 at Estadio Azteca, Mexico City 08/04/1999. Today I got to see Mexico vs China, here, at Qwest Field. The game was ....good pace but it was mostly China taking some soccer lessons from a Mexico that couldn't turn their tactics into results, sometimes random. Mexico 1 - China 0. How did it feel? like the Match of the Century, since I hadn't seen Mexico play in so long, but it was far from a Fla-Flu or a Roma-Juventus. The Stadium... now THAT was cool as shit. I expected to see a fourth, maybe half of it filled with a Mexican crowd, heck I was even wondering if my tickets would be close to the largets group... and Oh My God Cabron, we almost packed it (just wait a couple of years, in 10 we will fill Qwest and Safeco). Qwest Field looked beautiful in Blanco, Verde y Rojo and for the first time Seattle truly felt like home (I knew this would happen sooner or later). Can't wait for a Sounders game
