Tournament Update

Want to say a big thank you to all the guys and girl who travelled for the 1st round of the Scandinavian Football Championship in Copenhagen last weekend. In a scorching hot day in energy-sapping conditions, we performed very well in 3 of our 4 games. For those who weren't there, the scores were as follows :

Match 1 - Gothenburg 1-6 Oslo 0-0
Match 2 - Gothenburg 0-2 Copenhagen 2-7
Match 3 - Gothenburg 0-4 Malmö 0-5
Match 4 - Gothenburg 1-1 Stockholm 1-8 .

We just didn't play for match 2 but overall, we put up a great show against eventual winners Malmö and Stockholm considering we had just 7 regular players and an Aussie who never played the game before!!

Full marks to Mia Bira who represented Gothenburg with pride in a Copenhagen -v- Gothenburg/Stockholm friendly match on the day. I also want to remind people of Catherine Hayes disappointment that she could not attend the tournament at the weekend. She sustained a heavy knock to the head in training last Thursday night and thank God, after a visit to the hospital, she was released and is now recovering.Hurry back ,Catherine !!

Full match reports will be put up shortly on the website!!
