Sports
The soccer is the most popular sport in Argentina without any doubt, and inspires such intense passions. The two main teams are the arch-enemies Boca Juniors and River Plate.
Argentines do well in several other sports, ie. polo (world champions), rugby (world top 5), feminine hockey (recent world champions), car racing, boxing, skiing, hunting and fishing. Lately, the demand on extreme sports has started to grow. Basketball is also attracting greater interest thanks to the brilliant performance shown by Manuel Ginobili (or simply Manu), now a NBA champion.
