Another Reason Concerts Are Better Than Soccer

Apparently there's a music festival in Belgium called PukkelPop. Why do we tell you this? Because the goalie for a Belgian women's soccer team — something called SK Berlaar — skipped a game last weekend to go to the concert ... and her team lost 50-1. That's right: That's a soccer score.

The best part about this story is the official game report, in English.

A group of girlfriends didn t want to remain passive and watch the game, while their boyfriends were playing football. They founded a team themselves.

In the person of Jeff Wellens they found a coach who was prepared to teach them the basic rules of a sport, they had never played before.

We have a feeling they'll probably just leave the game to the boys from now on. Which, frankly, is just a shame.
