All together, boys

The members of the Costa Rican Men’s National Team, or La Sele, pray before a training session at the Alejandro Morera Soto Stadium in Alajuela on Wednesday. The team is preparing for their FIFA World Cup qualifier football match against Honduras on Oct. 6th. If they win the game, which will be held at the National Stadium in Sabana Park, they’ll clinch a spot for Russia 2018 – and Costa Rica will explode in cheers.
