Penarol Fans Celebrate Anniversary With Giant Flag

PENAROL fans at Tuesday's Libertadores Cup match against Independiente unfurled a flag measuring 15,000 square meters that covered nearly two stands of the Centenario stadium.

The flag with the team's yellow and black colors took four months to make, cost US$33,500 and celebrates the 120th anniversary of the Uruguayan club, which has won the South American title five times.

More than 300 fans helped to carry the flag weighing 1,880 kg from the club headquarters in Montevideo to the Centenario.
