We didn’t have games until 4:00 & 6:00 so it was a day that the guys could sleep in and some maximized that opportunity. We had a leisurely day checking out the local stores and also going to the beach. All decided that there were many worse ways to spend a day then catching some rays and bobbing in the Mediterranean Sea. It’s a tough life but someone has to do it. Everyone is getting plenty of sun as the weather has been awesome.
We hopped on the bus and headed to our games which are about 10 km (that’s about 6 miles for you Americans) away.
First game was against a very talented team from Norway. We gave up two goals in the 1st half and then played them even the rest of the way but fell 0 – 2. Next we played played Greece, and much like the U.S. World Cup we let the other team get an early lead.
We gave them a 2 – 0 lead but then pressured hard and was rocketed off the crossbar and IN !!!!!!!! Now down 2 – 1 we pressured hard but could not get the equalizer, final score Bad guys 2, Good guys 1. Back to the hotel for dinner and hang out. Late in the evening some headed out to the disco to bust some moves. Curfew was extended for those players as we have no more games left to play.
A good time was had by all.
Sorry only one photo today pictures from today will be posted tomorrow.
