World Cup Game !!!!!!

South Africa versus Wales

Everyone had finished singing the peaceful national anthems ....and now the crowd has gone WILD waiting desperately for the rugby game to begin!!

Wales and South Africa are warming up for their battle to get through to the finals.The boys are tackling hard, running up straight to their opposition to get the ball and score a try!

Francois Steyn grabbed the ball off the ground and ran through all the hard tacklers from the Welsh team! He ran like the wind towards the try line..scoring the first try of the game for South Africa!!!!!!

Everybody’s eyes were on Morne Steyn. He was going to accomplish the conversion for his country. Then, there was silence all around. They were waiting for him to get the conversion over. “KICK” he kicked the ball and it flew into the sky like a cannon ball, through the goal posts landing onto the field. The crowd roared with excitement.

Eventually South Africa won by one point over the Welsh. The points were 17-16. It was such a close hard game it was very exciting to watch.

We think that the South Africans were more skilled than the Welsh and that they will make the finals. Maybe the All Blacks will beat the South African team but win or loose we are behind them all the way.
