The English champions were outplayed in the opening half at Stamford Bridge and Valencia fully deserved their 1-0 lead - courtesy of a fabulous 25-yard angled drive from David Silva.

The quarterback tries to lead his team's offense down a 100-yard (a little less than 100 meters) field by passing (throwing) the ball or giving it to another player who runs with it.

They smiled as Mike and I walked past them, heading for the kitchen, which lead to the porch that overlooked the back yard.
