Football, Day 2

MMM - GL 1-0 (1-0)

Yesterday, we had the 2nd game and we played against the team from the Ministry of agriculture and forestry (MMM - Maa- ja metsätalousministeriö). We fought hard, though the opponents where taller and more stronger physically then our team. Again, our goalkeeper did a very good game. In the first half, we defend most of the time and we had only one good chance. The opponents were more aggressive and they scored in the middle of the first half. In the second half, we attacked more we had two big chances. Unfortunately, none was turned into a goal.
About myself? ... I guess I did "lagom" (not good but not bad) as some Swedes might say. However, I have the feeling that we would deserve a draw specially after the 2nd half performance. I believe we will do better next game. Let's wait and see.

PS: In the Day 1: Finnish Border Guard (RVL) - Finnish Geodetic Institute (GL) 1-1 (1-1)

This year, it seems that my working place FGI (Finnish Geodetic Institute) or GL (Geodeettinen laitos) will be involved in a summer football competition. Teams from other research institutes from different ministeries.
There are two series: Master (8 teams) and B (13 teams). B is divided into two groups and FGI-team plays in B1. In the first round FGI plays against other teams in B1.
