NATIONAL ANTHEM OF URUGUAY AND TRAINING PICS

[jenni_blog]

While watching the World Cup games I've been enchanted by a few of the countries' national anthems. There is the well-known and beloved Germany anthem, Portugal's is also quite beautiful and stirring, and while the national anthems are ALL special, this one is my favourite:

Here is a good vid of the players singing it during a previous match vs Brazil:

I LOVE their anthem! I love the way it takes such a LONG time to get to the words! And then the players sing it so passionately! The words are stirring too. I love to watch them singing it at the WC, so I hope there will be at least two more times to hear it! :)

Would be great to hear them in the final but....

Who cares about an icon? *smiles*
