a german guy from my haiger "fan club"

... so after our first friendly match against Weidelbach FC this 17 yr old asked Valerie - one of my teammates - what my name was and if he could get a picture with me. i noticed it was an interesting conversation because he couldn't speak english very well, and neither could his group of friends. he introduced himself to me, but i forget his name - i think it started with a "Y". I became incredibly embarrassed - to the point of tears. I didn't let him see me cry though, it might have confused him ( i wouldn't have been able to explain, that is, unless i snagged a translator).
