Hola Mi Sola Lectora!
Last night at 7:30, all of the tv channels and radio stations abruptly stopped what they had been previously broadcasting, and after several seconds of static - on came the soccer match! Ecuador vs Venezuela...
Aqui en Ecuador futbol es una cosa muy emotionada!! Here in Ecuador soccer is something very exciting! A source of much pride for many because los jugadores son muy bueno, y el ano pasada ganaron la copa - - the players are very good and last year won the cup!

Everyone watches the games here, on tv or at the stadium, and casi todo (almost all) have team jerseys! que increible! Even I am into it!
Hay muchos ligas aqui tambien. Country leagues, city leagues, regional leagues... but many of the best players come from Ecuador - specifically from a region called Esmeraldas :)
Esmeraldas is very poor, but some of the best soccer players in South and Central America hail from this area. Many people in this region have very dark skin and their ancestors first came over as slaves...
Durante los Partidas de futbol es muy comun a oir "GOOOOAAAL" or "Ecuador! Mi Pais!!" :) Unfortunately, last night, Ecuador lost to Venezuela 3-1, todo el mundo fueron muy triste hoy!
Pero, pues, bien - voy a decir en la proxima partida - Ecuador mi Pais! :)
Eso es todo por hoy! Hasta Pronto!
