World Famous in Coventry

The remaining tickets to Olympic events became very hard to get as the games went on, with millions of people trying to access the website each day to snap up seats as they became available.  In a moment of great excitement, Estelle thought she had been successful purchasing tickets to the Women's Football at Wembley, but it turned out after she had sealed the deal that they were actually for Coventry, a two hour train ride from London!  As we were both on school holidays we decided to go anyway, and were especially excited when we discovered that the semi final would feature France versus Canada!  Dressed in our French berets and stripy tops, it was a shame France didn't manage to win, but we did get interviewed by the Coventry Telegraph on our way out of the stadium!  Check out the full story below:
