HI-POD NEWS

(1/17/05 Los Angeles) The LA Coliseum was the sight of the second soccer match in the “International Soccer Match Series in LA” tournament. This evening Columbia and Guatemala went head to head in a friendly match. In the third minute of play, LA Galaxy’s Carlos Ruiz scored the first goal to put Guatemala up 1-0. This held until the 83rd minute when Columbia’s Hector Hugo Hurtado scored a header to tie the game.

The HI-POD was used to capture still shots of the opening ceremonies and later with a video camera to capture the goal perspective. This impressed the Columbia National Coach (Reinaldo Rueda) so much that he requested the footage.
