The Tie That Feels Like a Loss

Bolivia almost pulled off a monumental upset against Peru in the opening match in the Copa America tournament. The host team is always under pressure to go far in their own tournament. So when Bolivia jumped out to a 2-0 lead, things seemed too good to be true. After a penalty call that brought the game within one goal, Ramiro Blacutt decided to pull the entire team back and try to withstand the onslaught. Finally Peru was able to tie the game and all the hopes of an upset win went out the window.



Pictures and words about the night at Cecilia's will come soon.
