the power of soccer.
Yesterday was
fun! i went down to the 24 hours coffeeshop to watch the England vs Portugal match. it was really thrilling to see both sides so desperate to score. Becks was out and when the cameras fixated on posh spice, all the cheekopeks at the coffeeshop started whistling. Rooney was given a red card and sent off after he pushed Christiano Ronaldo. With that, England was on a downward spiral as Portugal was on full attack mode.
At full time the score was 0-0 and the game went into sudden death penalty shootout. my favourite! when its just one on one and the hopes of all supporters of your team worldwide rests on your shoulders.
As each player stepped up to take a shot, you could see their nervousness. the whole coffeeshop was cheering either "save! save! save!" or "goal! goal! goal!". then Ronaldo came. he kissed the ball and put it on the ground and he kicked in the winning goal. With that Portugal sealed victory and sent England packing! soccer really brings people together. my mum and i were even talking to strangers around us. so fun man!
Christiano Ronaldo is so cool! but i love GERMANY! i love soccer!!! i love the world cup! haha. now i feel like going down to play with my neighbours. yay!
