Playing Soccer (excuse me, I mean football)


Once a week the local expats representing New Zealand, UK, Canada, Morocco, Ethiopia, Australia, South Africa and the US get together for a little indoor soccer. We play 6 on 6, 8 minute power games over 2 hours. It's pretty intense and a lot of fun. I'm on the red team and so far we are undefeated at 7 wins and 5 draws.

The picture on the bottom is me with Ali, the league's top goal scorer (12 in 12 games. I have 2 goals) He's wearing a Manchester United jersey and I have a David Beckam AC Milan jersey. Chelsey and Barcelona are also very popular.
