Germany 4 - Wales 0

Today we went to see the German women's national soccer team play at the Auestadion in Kassel. They played Wales in a qualifier for the European Championships. Germany are current world champions. Wales are, to put it kindly, minnows. A capacity crowd of over 17,000 were treated to three early goals. The Germans are famous for rhythmic clapping and bad theme songs. Both are in evidence in the video below. What is also in evidence is that the Welsh national team needs to work on defending free kicks a bit better.






Timm emailed me just now to tell me that he caught us on the German national news...



that's me in the yellow Brazil jersey (thanks, Coach!) in the bottom left... TOOOR!
