Sorry about starting a new thread - feel free to direct me somewhere more appropriate if there is one - but I thought it might be useful to have a separate space to share my blog's coverage of the U20 World Cup and my experiences and impressions as someone attending the tournament as an accredited photographer. Perhaps the thread could also be used by others who want to share interesting articles about the tournament?

I have been to four games so far and gotten some nice photos at a couple of them that some people here might be interested in viewing.

Rather than start a new thread, I'll sneak on to Enzo's one. I was going to do a blog on each game I went to, but between going to the games in Wellington and New Plymouth I got myself a job so not really had the time (and my photos are all starting to look the same)

anyway I did a review of the group stage instead here it is

I'm happy to take submissions on what to change it to if there's a more accurate description but suggestions must be nice, because he is a nice guy! (Digging a deeper hole)
