Fans of Mexico’s national team weren’t thrilled with Tuesday’s result against Brazil. The 2-1 loss was the first of manager Chepo de la Torre’s tenure, and featured a late comeback by a short-handed Brazil side. To many residents of Torreon, though, the final result was almost an afterthought. For one night, local fans were treated to an up close and personal glimpse of some of the biggest stars in the international game. It ended with a loss by the home country, but those in attendance still came away with an enjoyable futbol experience to remember.
Torreon resident Fernando Cisneros shared some of his thoughts with me after attending the game:
