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.
