We joined 70,000 fans at Wembley Stadium for a soccer double header. Senegal beat Uruguay in the first game while we enjoyed some interesting stadium food and people watching. The main event of the evening was the second match of team Great Britain vs. United Arab Emirates. A man sitting next to us said this was the fist time Great Britain had fielded a team in 40 years. It was an amazing experience to cheer on the home team at the Olympics. Thankfully team GB won the match and we rode the packed tube home with many happy spectators.
Football strategy aside, the absolute highlight for me was being there as he entire stadium sang along to the national anthem.
