As we get closer to the World Cup in South Africa, Mala’s gonna need a special VivirLatino soccer jersey pero two Mexican futbol teams will not be sporting their uniforms in Arizona in protest against SB1070.
Club America and Pachuca were supposed to face off in a friendly match on July 7 at the University of Phoenix. Pero, Club America pulled out of the game citing “the new immigration bill”.
Que viva el boicott!
PS : Who watched the amistoso entre Mexico & Chile yesterday?
