Finals here we come!!!

Day starts off with optional breakfast for the Boys B as they are just wiped, most eat while the rest are comatose in their room.  Boys A all eat together as they are in Semi Final mode.

Boys A do a walk around with some dynamic stretching and then all go to watch Macy play in her game. She  scores 2 goals as they win 2-0, we just keep winning on tour!!!

Lunch and then all back for Tour Nap, my favorite time of the year, LOL we need it to.

Macy has a 2nd game and scores 4 more goals as they win again and advance to the consolation final Sat am.

Off to Dinner and then on to the Boys A semi final.  We travel all this way to play against another American team called Scandia United.  We play our worst  game of the year, go figure and go up 1-0 as Cannon Braggs scores on a PK but we give it right back as we give up a PK in the 2nd half followed by a red card so we are tied 1-1 and down a man. 

Time for game management and we go into OT.  Matthew Huffman makes 3 unbelievable saves from close range to keep us in it and Jacob Tagert scores a stunner in the 2nd OT and we hang on with 10 men and win 2-1.  We all go nuts, Boys B and some random fans rush the field and all are just going wild.

So we are off to the Final on Saturday.  

All are cloud nine so lets keep it going as the Boys A have not  lost a game in Europe, pretty remarkable!

Entire  group just ordered pizza tonight so we should be ready for the Final.

Wish us luck tomorrow.

Ciao
