Today the lads had a little bit of downtime before another busy day in Brighton. First session of the day involved some small sided games and focused on various attacking topics. Then the boys were surprised with a Q and A with Brighton first team captain Bruno, who has had great success with Brighton and has also spent time in La Liga playing against the likes of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. Bruno answered all of the boys questions and then finished the session with an autograph signing. The boys loved it and all came away with a personal signed picture.
Then it was back to the hotel for a bit of down time before heading out to the Amex, Brighton's first team stadium, for a stadium tour. The boys spent time touring the field, seeing the locker rooms as well as getting to see all of the other facilities at the stadium.
After the tour it was time for a showdown with Brighton's Academy team. The boys lost 2-1 but turned in a remarkable performance against an incredibly talented Brighton Academy side. Conceded two goals late but the boys held their own and turned in an amazing performance, we are so proud of them.
It was an incredibly long day with morning training, afternoon tour, and a game in the evening, but the boys had a great day and turned in a great performance in their evening game so they are buzzing. Can't wait for tomorrow as the boys will be seeing their second professional match, Southampton vs. Fulham!
