DAY 5 - Blog from Molly Cousins- 96 Girls Admin

Great day! 

The boys teams had the day off on Wednesday and spent their morning in training.  I believe that the 97 Boys were treated to a training session in Portuguese and Spanish only!  Our girls did light training and then both groups headed to downtown for some sight-seeing and shopping.

Many of our players had the opportunity to tour Dom Cathedral - SPECTACULAR! 

Games for the girls were hosted by FC Cologne, on a beautiful newly built turf field.  The boys came out to watch the girls games and support their ODP peers.  We were fortunate to encounter some strong competition in our games here, challenging our girls in many ways.  Each of our girls teams produced a win and we shared some moments on the pitch as a large group at the end, exchanging banners, hugs, and smiles. 

We ended the day watching the Barcelona/Real Madrid game in the cafeteria area of our Gesthause as a large group (that was one noisy room!).
