Also Brazil-Netherlands might have been the game of the tournament. Had tix for that one but had to sell them to be in Boston to see the quarterfinal of
Italy-Spain.

Wish I could have been to both. I did see Brazil-Cameroon in San Francisco and of course the final.

Yes, it was an amazing game. I see it all the time on "top ten world cup games of all time" type lists.

If you remember Brazil was up 2-0 at one point and Holland brought it back level before Branco ended it with a 30 yard free kick strike. I got to see Romario, Bebeto, and Bergkamp all score. I was praying for extra time because I really didn't want it to end.

The funny thing about it was the Brazilian guy next to me shook my hand after each goal because he thought I was Dutch...lol
