We started out the day with a typical Czech breakfast and departed shortly after for a tour of the AC Sparta Praha Stadium. Throughout the tour we learned about the history of this team as well as visited the VIP/trophy room. We were also able to walk around on the teams game field.
Upon returning to the hotel were we given free time to explore the many shops and interesting architecture this city has to offer. We also had time to have lunch on our own.
We returned to the hotel and departed for our game at 4:30. In our third game of the trip we played against FC Vysehrad. We lost the game 4-2 but it was a very exciting match. This was by far the best competition we had on the trip and it was a great experience to play against a club of their ability. Our goals were scored by Brian Bolibrzuch and Geoff Smith.
After the game, we returned to the hotel around 8:15 and showered before a three course meal served by the hotel. Following dinner we were given a bit more free time to continue wandering around the city.Tomorrow we will begin our trip to Germany with lunch and a match against a Regensburg club team along the way.
