The search of a dream ( Thomas Muller FF)

Chapter 9 - First match

16 June 2014, Arena Fonte Nova Salvador (First stage of group G)

It was today, the World Cup would start today for Germany. This match was maybe the most difficult of the group; it was against a great team. They had qualified to the World Cup with two amazing matches against Sweden, no one would forget those four goals of Cristiano and the way Portugal played to get a spot in tournament.

Portugal were a serious candidate to win the World Cup, but so were day. In the reality they were the real candidate's to the World Cup title...I mean, have they seen Germany squad? They didn't have just one great player like Ronaldo for Portugal. They were all great players.

"I'm a little nervous," Ozil said smiling, while he put is shirt on. In less then three hours they were going to play their first match in the World Cup.

"I'm also, but I think we can manage," Thomas muttered, while he waited for Ozil to finish getting ready. He wanted to go to the field, see the stadium before the crowds start, they had one more hour alone before the fans start showing up, " If Ronaldo is in the day yes, then we have to play more carefully but other then that its going to be fine."

"Yeah, you're right," Ozil agreed, " How about we see the pitch before the craziness start?"

"Let's do that," he said before turning his attention to the guys behind him, " Kroos, Gotze let's see the pitch."

The four men got out of the dressing room and went to see the Arena Fonte Nova Salvador; it was the first time they played in a Brazilian stadium.

On the pitch there wore people from the World Cup, the DFB guys, who were talking and checking things, and the media. The TV people were preparing the things for later, they had coverage to deliver back home.

Thomas looked more carefully at the media guys; he wanted to talk to Lena before the match. It had been 8 days since they landed in Brazil and things couldn't have changed more, he and Lena were now actually friends. Sure, they fought sometimes but it was lesser and lesser, and Thomas was starting to get to know her more, she was so different from the annoying women he had paint her for, and she actually started to like playing golf, which was a plus.

He had to admit, that Wolfgang knew very well what he was doing when he said that he and Lena had to spend their free time together.

"Whom are you trying to find," Kroos asked chuckling although he could quite guess whom it was.

Thomas looked back at his teammates, " Don't start guys!" They laughed, they had been teasing him since the day he had landed in Brazil and since his fight with Basti over her it got worst.

Than he finally spotted her, she was wearing some demin jeans with a red top, her short blond hair was wavy and very in place and she had more makeup then she used on her daily day. In Thomas opinion, she looked gorgeous but he liked more when she didn't have so much make up on. She was sat in one of the stands closed to the field.

"Such a lover boy!" he heard Mario shout as he went to her. Damn, those guys were always teasing about things that weren't going to happen.

"So how is the golf expert," Thomas asked her, teasing, soon he got to her. He sat on the chair next to him.

Lena took her eyes from the papers and smiled, " I'm not an expert, but if you must know I'm very well."

"That's good, so do you have predictions for today match," Thomas asked curious, over the daily hours he had spent with her, he learned that besides being a journalist, Lena also loved football. Sometimes she knew more things then him.
