You should be okay.
I think I remember half-empty stadiums for the last tournament.
I also remember great football though.
Watch out in Caracas, a friend of mine has just come back from a year out there, apaprently it's a scarey place, no going out after dark......
Apart from that apaprently parts of Venezuela are stunning & it's very cheap
I reckon Uruguay are a good outside chance of winning this, but it's still hard to look past Brazil and Argentina even without the strongest side.
I think Argentina will win it, they have their full side while a lot of the well known players are missing for Brazil.
Anyone wathcing this? I know the teams aren't the most glamorous, but the football being played is savage. Really enjoyable to watch. Brazil beaten 2-0 by Mexico last night. And Chile twice equalised before beating Equador 3-2
Brazil will win it as usual. :rolleyes:
Dman, Uruguay are awful and mypost, Brazil don't look great and have only won the Copa America 7 out of 41 times so while they've dominated the past 4 years, it's hardly the usual occurence.
Great shot of Maradona, Hugo and Evo in one of the papers this morning.
Where is it on next time out - I'd love to go if it were on at this time of year again.
Pass, Evo, pass.Quote:

What other country has a better squad that peru? all we need know is to play well and win and win matches and do well in the copa America and more impotantly qualify for the WC.
Aye, never really worked that hard. Looking forward to seeing them against Brasil and Mexico though Paraguay may give them a match.Quote:

Might throw big money on that.
Brazil did win it as usual. :DQuote:

Here are the highlights of the final. Rocket for the first goal.
Argentina were much the better team.
Never seen a team win 3-0 playing like that, although the third goal was class.
"speechless.
Can't believe it.
I can't believe we lost that game."
A shame but every time he has the big stage at his feet he bottles it.Quote:
