Wolfsburg vs Manchester United

On Tuesday night Manchester United played against Manchester United in the champions league qualifiers in Germany.

Manchester United were playing that night without their key player Wayne Rooney. Manchester United needed to win this to qualify for the champions league finals.

Manchester United started out the game very strong by passing the ball around very smoothly and maintained possession very well. This passing game carried on and led to Mata cleverly flicking the ball through to Martial. Martial was one on one with the woflsburg keeper and slotted into the bottom right corner. The fans celebrated as it only took martial 9 minutes to score. It was a great start for United and the wonder kid martial.

A silly tackle from United around 5 minutes after gave Wolfsburg a freekick on the halfway line. The freekick specialist Ricardo Rodriguez stood up to take and curled into the path of the defender Naldo Who hit a perfect volley into the bottom right corner. The scores were level.

After this goal Wolfsburg looked the stronger team by playing short passes everywhere they could. Julian draxler for Wolfsburg made a run into the box skulking the whole defense and passed it to veirenha who simply struck the back of the net. It was halftime and woflsburg were Ahead.

After halftime the game was quite boring for a bit until in the 70th minute United got a corner and Joan maya whipped it in. A Wolfsburg player, guilavogui, headed it over his own keepers net into his own goal. The game had got very interesting as the sides were equal and the end of the game was approaching.

However in the dying embers of the game woflsburg recieved a corner and none other than Naldo hit a bullet header into left side of the net. Manchester United had lost and were eliminated from the champions league.

The manager van gaal has been said that his job as manager is not secure according to the daily telegraph so watt will happen next for united

Playa de las Americas in Tenerife 


A couple of years ago me and my family went on a two week holiday in the summer to playa de las Americas which is located in the south of Tenerife in the Canary Islands. When we went it was very hot all the time unlike England.

When we went there we were stopping in a hotel called the princess guayarmina hotel and it
was the best hotel ever because it had a swimming pool, Spanish cultural restraunt, a games room with 20 pool tables.

The beach in Costa Adeje is one of the best in the world which was just a 5 minute walk from our hotel. The beach was very nice and calm and the sea was a shiny blue colour with lots of tiny fish going around in it. We went to the beach a lot throughout our holiday.

My favourite part about going to Tenerife was visiting one of the worlds best water park known as Siam park. It had a huge range of slides and shoots but my favourite was the tower of power. The ride is basically one massive slide which then brings you through a shark tank and you can see all of the Sharks which was very scary. Another ride which I enjoyed was a family ride which had many twists and turns and then you were pushed into a massive bowl. It was extremely fun for all of us.

In the town of playa de las Americas there is some really cool shops selling lots of expensive fashion designer clothes such as Gucci. There were also a lot of Spanish restraints but we didn't use them because we had one in our hotel which we had unlimited access to.

As part of our holiday we were given a pass to a beach party which was on a deck just above and behind the beach which sold fancy drinks. It was a nice place to go and they threw some games for all ages to join in on.

Overall our trip to Tenerife was amazing and am hoping to go again next year.

travel guide for majorca

When me and family stayed in Majorca we had a great time and these are some of the best bits of my holiday.

when we arrive at the hotel we were showed where we would stay and the rooms were very nice. On the first day we didn't do much because we just stayed in the hotel and go swimming in the hotels pool.

On the second day of our holiday we went to the beach. The beach was very good because it was a very hot day. Whilst we were at the beach I bought myself a giant inflatable crocodile which you can sit on. I spent a long time in the sea riding my inflatable crocodile and managed to catch a few tiny fish with my fishing net which I also bought with the inflatable.

Another thing we did when we went on holiday was go shopping in the Spanish town. It was very cool how the Spanish shops are and the Spanish market because they sold very unique things such as mysterious antiques and tasty foods I've never heard of before. Whilst we were at the shops I bought a remote control car. I rode it around by the beach and it went very fast.

When we slept in our hotel at night we encountered a lot of mosquitoes so I had to wear mosquito cream which repelled the creatures.

Overall our trip to Majorca was very nice an I would highly recommend it to any families looking for a holiday.

France vs Germany euro qualifiers

Two of the biggest national teams in football history that come to mind are France and Germany and last Friday on the 13th November in Paris, France.

The match started late in the evening and both sides's possession were quite equal but France were edging above slightly. The first half was very boring until France's Anthony  martial made a destructive run down the leftwing of the pitch killing around at least thre players. He cuts in as he saves it from going out for a corner and plays a perfect pass for the Arsenal striker, Olivier giroud,  who slotted it into the top of the net.

The first half came to an end with France leading 1-0.

In the second half France were dominating possession atill and Germany didn't look like the World Cup winners that they once were. Thomas muller had a chance when he dribbled around the keeper but unexpectedly hit the left post. The whole German team and fans were disappointed in him.

Blaine matuidi took advantage of this and had a similar run to Martians Down the left wing and crossed it into the penalty area leaving Andre Pierre gignac to blast it home past manuel Meier into the back of the net.

Germany's performance was bad as the stadium was surrounded by suicide bombers from Isis. The German team looked very scared and struggled to play.

That night in Paris up to 100 people were killed by Isis riflemen and suicide bombers and people were very sad about these tragic events. Let's hope Isis doesn't terrorise anyone ever again.
