America Football Cup

In the context of national protest, with teachers and students on strike against government reforms, notably "Teaching Profession" and higher education; it was held in Chile, the Copa America, being at oldest world championship. In which, for a month we can see how the protests of teachers and students was deflating.

What is my opinion about the cup?
 First, I think the glass generates among Chileans a nationalist and chauvinist, feeling for wanting to be better than the neighboring country.  And I say this because comments emerged in different places, where it is discriminated to be another Argentine, Bolivian or without understanding that all Latin American countries have a common origin in the looting carried out by the European (Spain and Portugal).

However, I share the empathy of triumph, when referring to the people, and that those who held that Chile won the cup, were the popular sectors of the various Chilean cities. And I was glad to see my neighbors happy; forgetting little daily problems such as lack of money, such as joy was short-lived triumph in the cup.


Copa America then we could say it has a double significance for me, on one hand represents the neglect of the institutions of the state towards education, using television to break up protests, and thus ended mobilizations teachers, bad shape that did not achieve their goals. On the other hand, it also meant a joy to the Chilean people, who held and still celebrates the victory achieved.
