Kenya v Germany
Kenya (5) v (1) Germany
If there is a prize for crowdappeal, this match takes it. Supporters of both teams were eagerly cheering and shouting throughout the game.The Germans brought drums, flutes and shirts matching the national german colors and supported their team standing throughout the game.
On the pitch, the Kenyan players were all smiling, maybe because they felt the victory coming, maybe because they just love playing football. Either way, they had good reasons smiling. They played with an ease that spread smiles all over the crowd, and their light feet played with great speed and s. With rapid feet and a keen eye, they played a game that was entertaining all the way to the end, even scoring a goal 2 seconds after the final whistle.
The Kenyan joy of playing and eager to score kept them in the lead throughout the game, and they kept control of the match by continuously playing the ball upfield and aiming for the goal. with one minute left of the game, the Kenyans missed a penalty, and the German quickly responded with their only goal.
To wrap it up, players of both teams held hands running in a wave toward the crowd. Great fair play.
