Viva Portugal!!!

My very good friend from work Claudio, invited Gabe and I to watch the quarterfinal match of the FIFA World Cup between Portugal and England. Claudio and his brother Pedro are from Portugal so naturally they were intense throughout the game. While Giorgio (Claudios' 3 year old son) and Gabriel played and cheered on Portugal - the boys in maroon won in the most exciting fashion - a penalty kick shootout!!!

The Semi-finals are next and the real test awaits as Portugal will play France. The French defeated the favorite and 2002 WC Champion Brasil in their quarterfinal match. Thanks to our Portuguese friends for letting us take part in their excitement.
