In Mexico City fans were excited when the football match between America and Guadalajara was broadcasted in 3D.

I can imagine the audience actually ducking when the ball gets kicked!

They did!!! I think that is one of the draw of the big 3D screen and all that

I think that the football match is one of the more exciting applications of 3D

I read a Reuters report on this. Here:

MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - Excited Mexicans clutching buckets of popcorn and soft drinks in cinemas ducked whenever the ball was kicked towards them as they watched Sunday's big game between America and Guadalajara in 3D.

At the packed Azteca, thousands more had a more traditional view of the match between the country's two most popular teams which finished with a 1-0 victory to America after an early goal by Colombian Aquivaldo Mosquera.

"It was incredible," said 25-year-old Claudia Fernandez. "I'd already seen films in this format, but watch a football match, never, and I don't regret it because it's much more exciting."

The big-screen view was more electrifying than the stadium for some fans in Guadalajara and Monterrey, who were able to see the match in cinemas in 3D, a world first according to broadcasters Televisa, who plan a repeat for the Apertura championship final.

I don't think that a football match in 3d could ever surpass being there live.

Well, for the people who experienced it, it seems that the 3D screen were bigger thrills!
