It was a pretty lazy Sunday today. We just laid around…

And watched the Reds game…

Lazy Sundays are the best Sundays. 🙂

IT’S FC CINCINNATI MATCH DAY FIVE! Today, FC Cincinnati was taking on Bethlehem Steel. Somehow, this was the already third time this season the two teams had met. FC Cincy travelled to Bethlehem, Pennsylvania in both of the two prior meetings, and they lost both matches. The first 2-0 and the second 1-0. In both matches. And FC|C had a player sent off in both matches. So we were hoping that our boys in blue could exact a little revenge on the team from the Lehigh Valley…































HERE WE GO…


FC|C’s Corben Bone took a nasty knock on the noggin…



I set our Polaroid CUBE on the row in front of us to record some of the atmosphere and actually captured FC Cincinnati’s first goal. And even though you can’t see the goal, the crowd reaction is still pretty great…
1-0 to FC CINCINNATI!





The referee gave Bethlehem Steel a penalty…

Which they converted…


We thought we felt raindrops so we moved over to watch the match from under the protection of an overhang…




And that’s how the first ended 1-1…

SPRINKLES!







2-1 FC CINCINNATI!
FC Cincinnati new boy Danni Konig scored both FC|C goals!




In the 90th minute, the match was suspended due to lightning in the area…




We headed out to try to beat the raindrops. Our friend JJ gave us a ride home and as soon as we got in her car, it started pouring down rain. Eventually, the match was called final. And the match ended 2-1 to FC Cincinnati.
FC Cincinnati returns to Nippert Stadium next Saturday at 5pm to take on Toronto FC II.
We’ll see you there! 😀 ❤️ ⚽️

When a box of Holtman’s donuts magically appeared at work in the morning, it quickly became one of the best Fridays ever…
