Southern Metropolital Finals - soccer

On Wednesday 7th August Mr Christopoulos and his team of year 7 girls soccer players competed at the SMR finals. The girls defence was supurb and it was impossible for their competitors to get a goal against them, with zero goals scored against! On a count back, they missed getting into the pool A v pool B finals by 1 goal! As you can see in these photos, soccer is a serious game ... and sometimes it's not!
