Thought it would be a good thread. Just list teams you hate/ or are rivals with and what was your sweetest win over them that you celebrate till this day.
Here is a list of the teams I hate
1) New York Knicks
Teams I dont hate but are strong rivals (in order from most to least)
1) Brazil
2) Argentina
3) Penarol
4) Paraguay
5) Mexico
6) Australia
Ill only talk about the most incredible games I experienced with the rivalries.
1) Brazil- One I still celebrate till today was the 95 Copa America Final. Also the 1-0 in 2001, the 1-1 tie and the 3-3 tie this year was just sweet. Theyll never get rid of us
(1950 forever)
2) Australia- I dont know about the Aussies but for them going to the world cup was "Big" but for us not going was literally the end of football in Uruguay. That game was just life or death. When we lost the first game, I just remember this incredible hatred since we were about to lose after almost 3 years of qualifyers. I just remember this kid holding an Australia scarf screaming when (Viduka?) scored the PK and wanted to die. I remember both nations were literally at War. I would still be in therapy if we had lost in Montevideo. I didnt eat the entire day I was so nervous.
I remember how bad it got in the press as each nation was criticizing the other (Calling each other "Savages" and "Kangaroos" :funny: ). it was rediculous. That game I swear I screamed all 3 goals like we had just won the world cup. Pure adrenaline.
3) Paraguay- The win in November this year was unforgetable.
4) New York Knicks- Beating the Knicks in the 2001 playoffs (game 5 in New York) was the best moments as a Raptor fan for me.
5) Penarol- By far the 2 comebacks last year. Down 1-0 and win 2-1 in last second.....and down 2-0 and win 3-2 with 20 minutes to go.

). This qualifying only happened in 1999, and it was like the uruguayan Liguilla.
