Wizards Won Against Chicago Fire!

Surely, Chicago did their best. But, it wasn't enough to stop the Kansas City Wizards from winning the game. My husband left early yesterday morning for their out-of-town game in Chicago. Oftentimes, they leave on a Friday and get home on a Sunday. I'm glad that he would be home tonight, even if it's late. Soccer used to be not my type of sports primarily because it wasn't a popular game in the Philippines. Even here in the US, people have not really been crazy with soccer as with football, basketball, or baseball. David Beckham definitely gave soccer a major take-off it needed in America. I only got into it because of my husband, who is the Head Trainer for Kansas City Wizards Major League Soccer. Of course, as a supportive wife, I've got to like it...else. :) He has been with the team for 13 years now. In fact, he is one of the few pioneers who have remained, and certainly deserves a loyalty award for that. Today, I was excited to see him on TV- Metrosports Channel, when he ran to the field to help Morsink with his injury. I'm a proud wifey, obviously hehe :) Anyway, going back to the game, Wizards won 1-0 over Chicago, giving them an over-all lead in the Eastern Conference. Jack Jewsbury, a midfielder, scored its first and last goal, while Blanco of the opposing team, desperately made attempts, unfortunately though to no avail. Go, Wizards! :)

Scoreless Tie- Wizards vs. Dynamo

It is certainly better than losing the game. I am glad that the Wizards did not lose the game tonight against Houston Dynamo. Last Wednesday, they lost to New England Revs, their first loss ever for the season. The Wizards won the first 2 games against D.C. United and Colorado Rapids, respectively. It was indeed a great start for the team. To make the team stronger, they acquired Claudio Lopez, an Argentinean forward/midfielder, who's also a World Cup veteran. I have seen him played and scored a goal, and I can say he's definitely a good addition to the team. Go, Wizards! :)
