I did used to watch a Satellite Channel that showed South American Club matches on a Friday night - it's now scrambled
Okay it was in Spanish, but the pictures told the story.
That got me into collecting Club shirts, and I have 39 shirts, at this time, from Argentina, Brazil, Columbia, Ecuador, Mexico, Peru & Uruguay.

I did get a Boca shirt worn by Riquelme, in the 2002 season. (also picked up a Barcelona Riquelme shirt as well - from a German collector).
That Boca shirt is a Nike Quilmes shirt, but is nothing like the replica's they supply.
Good quality material, as you would expect.

I've got a couple of Pepsi and Megatone shirts, but they are rubbish compared to the Match shirt.


If you are looking for a side to follow, try Sporting Cristal from Peru, if only for their Cheer Leaders.........

Type "sporting cristal peru" into google, and see what I mean

It certainly is deadeyedixie. Where have you managed to taste it? Brewed in Lima I believe and sponsers of Sporting Cristal among others. I sometimes wear my Sporting Cristal shirt when playing 5-a-side and several people have asked "who are they" as you would expect.

I lived in Peru until I was 10. Still have relatives there. You can buy a nice beer called Cusquena (brewed in Cuzco) in some supermarkets here these days. My uncle is due over here next month and I will ask him to see if he can get me a Sport Boys shirt. I should look very dandy in that as its pink!
