LET'S PLAY A LITTLE
Friday, 4 August
CANTONIGROS, Spain _ It was only a little mountain they climbed. Two smaller afternoon sessions -- to compensate for the lost session on Thursday -- kept the gang going, despite their trek up Mount Cabrera earlier Friday.
Concentrating on tactical offense and defense, Jorge had the players drill in 4-v-4, two-touch sessions.

But finally the night session ended with a full-field 9-v-9 scrimmage, getting Paul on the field along with our host at the Cabreres hostel, Jordi Domenech, as guest goalkeeper. Paul scored a goal and was insufferable, even though his team lost 3-2.
Dan Greb scored twice and Kyle Roach once to lead their 10 to victory in the 25-minute game. Jordi denied Paul twice, once on a volley and again on a late header to preserve the victory.
