Sunday 30th Jan
The boys put on a spirited display against Chivas from Mexico. Chivas are the team from Guadalajara, Mexico, a city of 4 million people. Their youth system has produced players such as Javier Hernandez (Manchester United) & Carlos Vela (Arsenal). It is testament to the selected group from AMsoccer in North East Fife that the coaches have the confidence to put a team on the same pitch. The Chivas boys they played against today will be the stars of the future, and we hope some of our players can too. This was the fourth game of the tour and the first game we have lost on passcount with Chivas completing 196 passes and AMsoccer 165. The game kicked off at 7.30am. Following the game the boys had a welcome "day off" from training and sightseeing and spent the days relaxing with their host families. Tomorrow the boys will visit professional club Houston Dynamo and watch the first team training before playing their last game against Eclipse Soccer Club at 5.30pm Houston time.
