Thanks to Soccer by Ives, I was just made aware this video clip of yesterdays CONCACAF Champions League match of Montreal vs Santos Laguna in front of a, get this, crowd of 55,571. WOW!

I haven't been this fired up about a match for quite a while. Our office is "shutting down" at 3:30 pm just to watch it. These are the types of matches international soccer is all about.
