Spent the morning chasing tickets for Boca but ended up at the Maradona stadium for Argentinos Juniors v Estudiantes. Relatively average game but fantastic atmosphere from both sets of fans singing, chanting & jumping even in the rain despite the home team losing.

The bit that made it special was access to the pitch straight after the game, sitting on the bench & standing next to their best player as he was interviewed (Pablo Hernandez for the record just in case he ever gets famous)

Then on the way out of the ground meeting the all time top scorer for the Argentina national team.
A bit of a gear shift for the evening, perhaps the extra year is taking it´s effect but I signed up for a tango show. In theory it was fine dining but the long anticipated Steak & red wine didn´t quite live up to the billing. However the tango was surprisingly good, spectacular for the ability to fit all the moves onto a small stage and not hit the band with the high kicks
