Champions!

This weekend saw the end of season tournament at the Cairo youth soccer. Coach P and Js team, Everton, had not lost all season and had won the unofficial league (the kids kept the score even in the league didn't) . They won 2-0 in the first match, played a very good side the semis and beat them 2-1, J scoring a free kick to win the game after going 1-0 down and then had top play Arsenal in the final in front of a crowd. Match was tight and went to penalities. We won the toss, Joe took the first one, and put it away beautifully. They scored, Sherif missed, Aly saved, Sarah scored and that left the last kick, which Aly saved resulting in us finishing the season unbeaten and tounament winners.

Ts team were not up to much, but did manage one win in the tournament. T played well in goal as he was recovering from a chest infection and scored a cracking penality by all accounts.

Will try and post video later......
