7-5
We beat Sweden today 1-0. We both had our chances during the game. I scored off a short corner kick beat a few players and then shot it and watched it deflect off a Swedish player. I played another game in my mask and it wasn’t that bad. I am getting used to and should only need to wear it for two more games when we face Brazil. It was another successful trip. We won two games and played some good soccer. We are now on a 5 day break as we gear up for Brazil in Denver and San Diego. It is starting to get very exciting knowing we are leaving for the Olympics soon.

We arrive in Norway on June 28th. We left from Newark airport, so I just took the train from Philadelphia up to the airport. It has been a good trip so far. Norway is very nice. We got to go to a premier league game, practice, relax and hang out. We played Norway on July 5th and won 4-0. I was wearing my new custom mask that was made which was 100 times better than the last mask i was wearing. I will probably wear the mask for the remaining of our 3 games just to be safe. We played some good soccer against Norway and played a few different systems during the course of the game. I think we are all pleased with how things are coming together. We left Norway on July 3rd and traveled to Sweden. We face Sweden on July 5th.
