It's 40 degrees and raining, what would you do? Well we at SDU decided to play a match on the soggy pitch of Amtsgymnasiet. The teams were divided based upon if you were Chinese or not. Since there are so many Chinese students here, they decided they wanted to take on the world in a match of football (that's soccer for all of my American readers.) We had enough for 10 man teams, and enough sludge and mud for about 500. Long story short, it helps to have an average of one foot on the Chinese players, and the internationals were just to much for the Chinese to handle. By the end of the match, everyone had fallen into the enormous mud puddle at midfield, and shared not only the same coat of mud but the same satisfaction of having represented our respective countries.
