We all knew yesterday's sucess was going to be tough to match but we tried.
Girls started us off with an 8:30 am gm and won 2-0 with goals from Marissa and Miranda. Slow start but strong finish.
Boys B next and had a war vs Columbian team and had 3 players out due to injury and suspension. They only needed a tie and got it as they hung on for a 0-0 result. That tie wins the group and gives us Thursday off which is huge.
Boys C has a tough gm as we give up a last minute goal and lose 1-0 but had our chances.
Girls play their 3nd gm and play great as they win 5-0 with goals from Carolyn, Kenne, Anna, Syd, and Marissa. They also win their group.
Boys C end day with another tough loss 4-1 as we were punished for our mistakes. They now advance to B playoff so all teams now in single elimination.
We have gained a lot of support, mainly from the Norwegian girls, at out games and funny how the boys really don't mind. No worries on my girls as I am keeping a close watch on them. Kids relaxed tonight with time on fields and in courtyard as they enjoy interacting with players from different countries. Great stuff. Another georgeous day today as well so tour just keeps clicking along.
