Match Alianza Lima: 01:03 - Mar 4 with 677 viewsbluelagos

1. Getting there: Right kerfuffle getting in. No cash sales and needed web accesss, a printed ticket and ID to match. Given only 1 of us had ID, no one had a printer and none of us had web access, it wasnt looking good. But bloke on gate called his mate who found a bloke with web access, a mobile printer and £25 later we had freshly printed.tickets with our names on.

The 5 security checks seemed ott, but have no experience.of the locals. myself. Either way, we got in and bagged some top seats with shade in a 90% open stadium.

2. Atrmosphere:

Whilst it doesnt compare to Argie footie, it is still a long way better than English footie. Loads of singing, bouncing amd best, the waving of scarves in circles.

3. Footie:

Alianza play River Plate on Wed and on that performance id lump on RP. The opposition no 7 was good.

4. Getting out

Been to Maine Road (Moss side) and the Victoria ground (Stoke) so know a dodgy ground but today's walk was genuinely through a ghetto. Not the place to get lost and look foreign :-)

I did a Copa Libatadores game between Boca and Sporting Cristal a few years ago. Boca conceded a penalty and the noise the home fans made to put off the kick taker was hideous, I've never heard anything like it in a UK ground. Some of the fans were absolute animals too, but the atmosphere that went with it was brilliant.

Fingers crossed Ive got a ticket for the River Plate match wednesday night :-)

Apologies for the 'look at me' but 'look at me!'

sounds fantastic. That part of South America is top of my list to get to (as was Venezuela but will have to put that on hold for a while...).

Enjoy.
