2nd Soccer Game

Max enjoyed his second game this morning. His team played against the Geckos. The weather in Columbia dropped by 30 degrees yesterday, so it took his team a while to wake up and warm up this morning. There were a lot of tumbles, running toward the wrong goal, using hands and day-dreaming. It was awesome.
Max has had a cold since Monday, so he valiantly ran up and down the field with a tissue in hand. We didn't see much action from him in the first half, but during the second half, he scored twice. Joey had the biggest grin on his face. He also tripped his same teammate twice as the little guy was trying to score a goal. He never did it on purpose. It just happened.
Max also had a guest in the crowd, namely Michael Spicher. This was a huge honor considering that Spicher had tickets to the World Cup in South Africa and ended up not going. Thanks Spicher for coming!!!
Will spent most of the game sitting on a blanket on the sideline shredding a Styrofoam cup.
In the end, the Kangaroos did it again and won 5 to 3.
