An Update from Korha
Posted in: United FC by Korha Kpehe on August 7, 2010
Yesterday was amazing! We were in high spirits and everybody was feeling happy during our preparation to redeem Team Canada. With regards to the tournament, it’s been an amazing and tough experience every step of the way. We had to overcome a huge distraction and disappointment with the help of Canadians. Even when we got here, it just wasn’t the same knowing that our teammates were forced to play with two players short and no subs in the first two games.
It all seemed gone and lost. It felt like there was nothing we could do to overcome the challenge. But our Coaches have been amazing as usual, they prepared us well and told us to go out there and work hard. They told us to forget about winning or losing and work hard to show everybody why we deserve to be here. And we did! We played our hearts out and won our semifinal match which now means we are in the final for the Plate.
It felt really good that we showed people what we are capable of. I personally felt good because I was able to help the team qualify for the final by scoring the winning goal. At the end of the day, no matter what happens, we will do the best we can in a very tough situation and we will forever be grateful to Canadians for giving us this opportunity.
