Will it be live-streamed (video) anywhere?
I should probably read the entire article before posting next time, lol!
At the game, an hour before kick off and a HUGE line to get tickets to then queue up for a drink. What a joke! #letdownbythe organisation
I have to agree… next time they need more people selling food tickets
Let’s hope that the stadium officials performed a test run on both of the National Anthems to see that are capable of playing in their entirety….
Go Team Bermuda..

Good job guys,Very nice game ….even if you had lost Bermudian and Proud…
Great day, atmosphere was cool, but what was with all the empty seats?
Literally hundreds at the North end of the bleachers particularly. BFA, what’s that all about?
Probably because of everyone who was standing. Those seats would have been full if everyone had used them. No worries – great atmosphere and result.
Great game! Bring on Germany!
