Well since the last time we posted a blog we lost to Malaysia 3-2, which was disappointing as we were 3-0 down at half time but managed to get it back to 3-2 but couldn't get that next goal which was annoying! So today's game against Wales was a must win game for ourselves if we wanted to have a chance of getting into the bronze medal match.
We went in at half time 0-0 but should have had one or two goals by this point but didn't turn our possession into chances! The second half started well and by the middle of the half we were two up but we started to get a bit nervous towards the end and conceded a corner. With the score at 2-1 we were looking to hold on and get the points but with 40 seconds to go we conceded a short corner. Luckily for us we managed to keep the ball out of the net and claimed our place in the bronze medal match! Woop woop!
We then went for a recovery session in the pool, which was god fun as we ended up just throwing a ball around and relaxing the the spa bath!
Big game tomorrow as we will be looking to beat China and claim the bronze medal, which would be a great achievement and a great finish to the tournament for this team!
Will hopefully post one more blog but no promises. Hitting Invercargill hard tomorrow night! (If any of the two pubs are open)
Bye
Chris and Ralphy
