Emirates Cup Day 1

For the second year Super-Fan Robbie got us tickets for the Emirates Cup.  This is a football (soccer) tournament with 4 games of pre-season "friendlies."  Robbie, Jordan and I had a great time at Arsenal Stadium in London.  Here we are at the game with thousands of our closest friends:
There were two matches.  First Celtic tied Lyonnais (2-2).  Most of the fans didn't show up until the second game but not us!  Here we are outside the stadium decked out in our Arsenal gear:
Alex: I just bought this cap so I'd be wearing something red.  Do you want it? 
The second game was closer and I thought more evenly matched although in different ways. Again, at the end it was tied 1-1 between Arsenal and AC Milan.
