Champions
26th October 2006
My all time favourite playstation game has to be Pro Evolution Soccer 5, and this game has been a big part of my life here at university so far. Myself and housemate Andy set ourselves the huge challenge of winning the Konami Cup on the same team by the 27th of October, 2006 - the day that Pro Evo 6 was to be released. If we failed to make this happen we were banned from buying the new game until we did. So as it happens, the last 4 or 5 weeks have seen us battling it out, heart break after heart break, trying to achieve our goal.
Well tonight ladies and gentleman, this goal, our dream, has been achieved. A lot of blood, sweat and tears have gone into the last 5 weeks, trying to win the cup. Today was our day. We didn’t have it easy either, having to play a lot of our boggie teams on the way to the trophy. What made is so much more special was the fact I scored the winning goal, with the last kick of the game, in extra time. Joe Cole, you legend.
Results were as follows -
Group stages -
- England 3 vs 0 Classic Brazil
- Endland 2 vs 1 Italy
- England 0 vs 2 France
Knockout stages -
- England 1 vs 0 N.Ireland
- England 1 vs 0 Cameroon
- England 2 vs 0 Italy
- England 2 vs 1 Brazil
Champions at last. Time to get a life.
