SOCCER : AUSTRIA vs CAMEROON


The game is about to start.
The score will not be 0:0 for very long.


Austria is awarded a Penalty Shot.
The captain of the Austrian Team strolls up to the ball in a leasurely manner.
We hold our collective breath.
We can taste the lead.
The 1:0 is in the air.
He takes a weak shot...almost a lob...


The poorly taken Penalty Shot is stopped by the Cameroon Keeper.
The disappointment of the crowd is palpable.
What an opportunity wasted.
From then on the game belonged to Cameroon.
They were the better individual players.
They were the better team.
Sorry, Austria, better luck next time.


At the end of the game: The usual niceties:
The opponents shake hands, exchange shirts and
congratulate the referee for a difficult job well done.
