I am travelling to Costa Rica from the United States for a vacation this upcoming week and am ending the trip by attending the big game. Anybody have any insight or advice for somebody from USA attending this game? Do's, don't's, etc? I am very excited and stoked to see the top soccer in Costa Rica.
Re: Alajuelense vs. Saprissa (Feb 12, 2012) Great game and a very fun atmosphere to watch a game. A little disappointed nobody had any insight prior to the game, but luckily I was staying with some ticos, so they knew the ins and outs. The game was an absolute blast. I have some footage on my camera that I may post later. Awesome game and I highly recommend to anybody traveling to Costa Rica, if you have a chance to attend a "clasico", do it!
from livescore.com: FT LD Alajuelense [1 - 2] Deportivo Saprissa 22' [1 - 0] P.A. Gabas 45' [1 - 1] D. Sequeira 64' A. Alpizar J.M. Alfaro 77' [1 - 2] M. Escoe
Well played game...too bad our coach is a **********. Because of his stupid subs we let Saprissa walk all over us the last 35 or so minutes in our own home. We also lost yesterday bad against Santos....Our main focus should be qualifying no matter if its as 4th place or 1st...but it's looking tough with all our injuries and suspensions....and Perez Zeledon, Cartagines, and Saprissa look like locks for the first 3 spots unless they start struggling like us.
