Our last game in Ireland will be played in the Stadium of Drogheda boys. The pitch (what they call the field in Ireland) is beautiful and it is nice for our boys to play in front of the stands. Some of the parents come to watch our boys play against the local favorite.
The first opportunity is for Drogheda but after that our team takes control. Grayson makes a great pass but the goalie stops the ball: great save.
Andrew passes to Keaton who moves the ball to Ryan, he shoots and scores our first goal. 0-1 to Cesa. Not a much later Grayson receives the ball on the top of the box who shoots the ball over the goalie: 0-2 to Cesa.
In the second half DB is able to hold us off. Finally Brennan finds Connor D in the box who dribbles passed 2-3 players and scores 0-3 for the final scores. That ends the game. Our team was 5-1-1 a good performance.
Quote of the Day
“I don’t think I could have a higher opinion of any footballer than I already had of the Irishman, but he rose even further in my estimation at the Stadio Delle Alpi. The minute he was booked and out of the final he seemed to redouble his efforts to get the team there. It was the most emphatic display of selflessness I have seen on a football field. Pounding over every blade of grass, competing if he would rather die of exhaustion than lose, he inspired all around him. I felt it was an honour to be associated with such a player.”
