After a busy morning of work, I jumped on a plane for Houston and then drove to The Woodlands where I arrived with 3 minutes to spare before the opening kick-off of the US Amputee Soccer Lonestar Invitational. This international friendly tournament between the national teams from the USA, England and Haiti is considered a tune-up before the Amputee Soccer World Cup to be held in Guadalajara, Mexico later this year. Nicolai was sporting a new haircut which was a joint effort between himself and his girlfriend Karuna. I thought the look suited him perfectly.
After briefly saying hello to Nico and members of the squad I jumped into my role as team photographer. A complete set of images from the tournament can be found here. A few of my favorites of Nicolai appear below. The US team played better than I have ever seen them before but sadly where not able to overcome a one goal deficit loosing to Haiti by a score of 1-0.

Even so, Nicolai remained a force to be reckoned with on the field and he was generally double teamed any team he got near the goal.
Despite an extremely physical contest, the players have genuine respect and admiration for each other. Once the final whistle has blown confrontations give way to consolations and congratulations.
After an interview with a local TV station which carried coverage of the tournament, the team remained at the field to scout the English squad while I retired to the hotel for a respite from the heat and a nice nap. England destroyed the admittedly now tired Haitian squad by a score of 6-0 which did not bode well for tomorrow’s match with the USA.
