Zips Spring Trip


Recommended Posts

You know -- this story says the score vs Real reserves was 1-2. The previous story says we lost 0-1 on a penalty kick. I presume someone didn't do their homework for the second story, as they also say the first match was vs "Rayo Vallencia", a non-existent club (sic...Rayo Vallecano). They could at least spell Valencia properly, couldn't they? No oranges for you! :P

I agree, Z.I.P. ... sloppy reporting, especially given that all one would have to do to confirm it is go here and read (from Coach Porter): Tomorrow, I will send an account of our second match. This was a tough one. We lost 1-0 on a PK but we played a very good Real Madrid Reserve team .

Stumbled upon these pics from the Real Madrid reserves game. Enjoy

Nice grab, Yaz. Those facilities look world class. Wow!

I am still waiting to get a good look #9 Diego Navarrete. Guess I will see on Saturday.

Has anyone an update on Luke Holmes?

Found out last night that Luke Holmes is out this semester due to some transfer rules, apparently.

I think I just found out how this trip came about!

Was trying to find out what a "DSG" was :P and came across this description of the Generation Adidas trip to Espana. Guess which two club's reserve squads they played at Soccer City? ;) The MLS group must be pretty good -- they scored two more goals than the Zips! But they had Bunbury.

Actually, and don't quote me on this, I think that we played the Real Madrid C team and the GA team played the Real Madrid B team. The only reason I know this is because I did a little bit of studying before the Zips' Spain trip to figure out exactly how the different divisions of Spanish soccer work. Also it doesn't say that they played Rayo Vallecano reserves, it might have been their first team. But still I see what you mean it is interesting that both our team and the GA team played teams from the same clubs.
