Rossoneri!
Location: San Siro Stadium, one of the most recognized and storied football venues in the game, home stadium for two of the most successful club teams in the world.
The Match: AC Milan vs. Inter Milan, one of the most recognized derby matches in the world, with more international championships between the two teams than any other cross-town rivals in the world. Needless to say, tensions were pretty high on each side - as evidenced by the uproarious chants and fights put on by the ultras even hours before kickoff.
The Goal: (celebration about half-way through - pretty obvious) Kaka dribbled in from the right corner, crossed a floater across the goal area, and Ronaldino finished with a bullet of a header into the far post. Both players are generally considered to be some of the greatest football players in the world at present.
The "Tomahawk": close to the end, you'll see what appears to be a Seminole-style tomahawk act from the fans. That is not a tomahawk - it is an obscene Italian hand-gesture directed at an Inter player who was sent off late in the second half. Those little punks started playing dirty when they found out they couldn't win, Nerazzurri scum!
My Friends: Diego and David (the cameraman/narrator). All three of us are proud Rossoneri fans!
I'll let you figure out the rest - needless to say one of the best sporting events of my life!
