Ireland vs. Croatia – 1:3

The game started really bad for Ireland. In the 3rd minute  Croatia already it’s first goal. What followed was a fishy game by the Croatien players but then in the 19th minute St. Ledger made a nice head goal. Befor the end of the first half Croatia made another goal. During the half time break I was thinking about some Irish people and what they said about they football players.

Every Irish person says that they have a bad football team.

Maybe that’s the reason why I like Irish Rugby more than football. In the end Ireland lost the game with a 1:3 against Croatia. Let’s see how they handle the next game on Thursday.

A goal for Germany

It was a exciting game between Portugal and Germany. Germany played very well but they really had to be careful. C. Ronaldo always wanted to make his shot. Once it was very very close when the ball kissed the line of german goal. A few yellow cards but also some fair acts by our enemies made the game pretty nice. When Gomez made a goal for Germany in the 72nd minute I was some kind of happy.

Just to notice that I normally don’t like football. Irish Rugby is much cooler as I noticed a few weeks ago. That are real men with muscles. They really have no fear and aren’t such actors as football players.

Going Out For a Run

Yesterday Oliver and me decided to go out for a run in the evening. You might think it’s unbelievable, but it’s true: sporty nerds! 😉

First we decided to take a course of approximately 3.5 km, but due to some orientation difficulties we ended up with about 5.1 km. Here you can see the running course we finally took:

It was quite interesting to see some new areas of Belfast. The view along the waterfront at Ormeau Embankment is beautiful! And of course it was a very good feeling when arriving at home again. 😀
