Andaman International Soccer 7’s
Well the lads did ok, I arrived a little late due to a severe hang over, managed to get there at 7 minutes passed nine at which point I had missed our first goal of the tournament. Even at that early hour I’m glad I wasn’t playing it was extremely hot, we had three games to play in the round robin group stage, the first game we managed to win against the Kanto Celts from Japan 2 -1.
Our second game was played around 11 am so it was even hotter at that time this one was played against the Hibernians of Singapore team, I think the sun was getting to our team at this stage because we could only manage a draw and our lads appeared extremely tired, this one ended up as a 1-1 draw.
The third game an final game in the group stage we played Aioli United FC also from Singapore this game was scheduled for the 12:30 but actually kicked off a little later near to 1pm, I think we scored the quickest goal of the tournament during this game straight from the kick off spot we managed to slot the ball past their goal keeper, although being 1 nil up it didn’t last long the team tried but these guys were a lot fitter and better prepared than our team and they eventually hammered us 3-1. There was no disgrace in losing to this team they eventually went on to win the whole competition.
