Leipzig

We expected more of this city, but, apperantly it had suffered a lot during the war as well... In some areas you could see a half destroyed building (still!) surrounded with the quite restored ones.

Argentina's drummers - the best fans in the world. As we've learned there are 4 chants and they come in a particular times during the game! These drummers follow their team to all games - this time, however, stadium manager was giving them a hard time entering, saying that the drums were too big. We actually had to put in our 2 cents:) But just then some guy jumped the wall without the ticket and all the concerned managers started looking for him so the drummers made it in to everyone's exultance.

As Argentina's fans started gathering, the drummers began "Vamos, Vamos Argentina!" - everyone joined in and it lasted for about 45 mins!
