England v Montenegro Football Game.

What better way to experience a little UK culture than go to a football game? On Tuesday night England took on Montenegro as part of the campaign to qualify for the Euro 2012 Finals.
An extremely blurry photo of Wembley Stadium - attendance for Tuesday night was 73, 451 (can you tell football is kind of a big deal here?)Sami, Emmalee, and I sporting our scarves and jerseys :)


It was really cool to go - I've never seen a football/soccer game before. Go big or go home on your first soccer game, right? Haha. The score was 0-0, so between no one scoring a goal and our mile-away seats it wasn't the most exciting game, but it was still really cool.

A few fun facts on the opposing team, Montenegro: Until this game, I never heard of Montenegro. To mine and a few other people's surprise, Montenegro is a country. But it wasn't its own country till 2006. It's sandwiched between Croatia, Bosnia, Serbia, Albania, and Kosovo. It's pretty much a super tiny country that's east of Italy. Their population is only 620,000 - which is pretty impressive for having a FIFA (Federation Internationale de Football Association) ranking of 40 out of 200-ish teams.
