Day 3

Successful day on the pitch as Finland and Sweden met in their opening game of the tournament. Final score, Finland 4 Sweden 2. We may have won the game but the overall feeling was one of friendship. We enjoyed the vocal support of the guys from Norway, friends we met in the tournament they sponsored in Norway in June. There was also a new fan in the crowd, a fellow Finn who now lives in Poland and has a business here. Lunch was a little questionable as it was a small yogurt, a nectarine, two large pastries and water. I think the guys were a little hungry after they played but they headed to the Lech Poznan game for the opening ceremonies. Teemu carried the flag for Finland on the field. There even is a Finnish player on the Lech team. The Lech team won, so all ended well for Day 3.
