Fútbol Playoffs

It has been some time since we attended one of the many fútbol games that are played on a daily basis, but our neighbor's team is in the playoffs. In the quarterfinals last week he scored two goals and his team won 5-1. This afternoon's semifinal game wasn't quite as easy, but they eventually prevailed 3-1. I succeeded in getting some okay shots of Israel (our neighbor), but other players, like the dynamic forward shown here, provided better action photos - which is what ultimately makes a good fútbol photograph. I'm pretty sure we will be back at the pitch in a week to watch the second match in this semifinal series. Israel's team is definitely in the driver's seat at the moment in the race to the finals.

View large to see the sweat on this hard working dude.
