TRIED HARD

The Germans tried
desperately to get back into

the game and with 18:13

remaining Reiner Geye
found the range.

With three minutes left in
the game Daryl Samson was
in the wrohg place at the
wrong time when he sent a
ball, coming off his goalpost,
into the back of the net for
an own goal.

However, there was no
way the Germans: could
mount another attack and
the Selects collected the
win. It was the second
consecutive loss for
Kaiserslautern who now
travel to South America
before returning to North
America for more exhibition
matches.

social aspects of a club.

It was also reported at the
meeting that the club had a
very succesful year, and is
