Today was a very big day! We played an International match at St Andrews football club.
The event started with some traditional Scottish dancing by a local dance school, which was very nice. They performed the sword dance.
There was an opening ceremony with the teams walking out onto the pitch with a piper. The Saudi National Anthem was sung by our team and a Prince's Trust representative gave some opening remarks, which were well received.

The excitement built as the Under 12's kicked off. The shape of the team has seriously improved over the last few days and they played very well against a very strong opposition.

According to the ref this was offside.

The match ended in a 3-1 defeat, but we learned a lot from the game particularly the off-side trap (in fact it's fair to say I learned a lot too!!!) Sorry but Luke's goal was never off side!
At the end of the match the teams were awarded medals.
