1
I had originally planned to film a video like this in New York on my last day, where I was going to visit multiple football stadiums in one day and see how many I could get inside.
2
It's a concept I've done in different locations, and I thought it'd be great to do one in America.
3
But New York is so big, I just couldn't fit it all in in one day.
4
So this video is going to be a little bit of ground hopping like the ones I was able to get to.
5
Literally every stadium from where I was staying was just a day trip within itself.
6
There was then me exploring New York on my last day.
7
It was like 40 degrees Celsius.
8
I cycled around for hours.
9
I walked around for hours.
10
It was incredible.
11
And whilst I was doing that, I told you everything that I learned about the World Cup, about Americans and how it was watching Scotland, which was my main reason for being there.
12
I wanted England to do well.
13
I'm English.
14
At the end of the day, I want England to win the World Cup.
15
But I live in Scotland, love Scottish football, and was following Scotland in America.
16
So I do sum that up towards the end of the video.
17
This is a fun one.
18
I absolutely love filming it.
19
I just, it's actually quite sad watching it back.
20
Now being back in the UK.
21
It's a fun video.
22
Hope you enjoy it hit the like button, subscribe if you aren't already, and I'll see you in NYC.
23
You've got this incredible view of New York from Staten Island.
24
You can see Manhattan, you can see parts of the world I didn't know existed.
25
There's that many buildings, that many skyscrapers, that many cargo ships.
26
The stuff that's going on in front of me here is incredible.
27
But the only place I'm interested in is the random little stadium there, who I don't even know who plays in it.
28
There's a few World Cup things going on here.
29
That's the World Cup beer logo.
30
I did see a world cup logo around the other side
31
so maybe they've been having like watch parties here
32
or something looks more i was gonna say it looks like a cricket ground then
33
but as you can see from the field not the pitch the field
34
that is a baseball stadium predominantly by the looks of things
35
but i think football might get played here i think a lot of the time baseball
36
and football share a lot it seems like what a place to watch it that'd be imagine
37
that big screen there and then that's your view on a nice day, pints with the lads out there, home of the Hawke City.
38
I'm over from the UK for the World Cup, I noticed you had a stadium here, would it be possible just to come and have a quick look at the picture tour?
39
Unfortunately, no. But gates do open at 4pm so you guys can come in to watch the gates.
40
Oh, so they screen their World Cup.
41
We have FanFest this week here at the stadium.
42
Amazing.
43
And does a football team, like soccer team, would the soccer team play here or is it just for baseball?
44
Just baseball.
45
Even in the off-season for baseball?
46
Yeah, the off-season, yes.
47
Oh, okay.
48
And who's the team?
49
Stand-off Ferry Hawks.
50
I did actually type in soccer stadium and it brought me to here.
51
The SI Ferry Hawks.
52
The SI Ferry Hawks.
53
here we go look at this a little open astroturf pitch right in the heart of new york city here
54
manhattan financial districts there like world trade center buildings literally like just behind that one there.
55
Look at that!
56
Wow and ready for the view of the World Trade Center?
57
there it is there oh
58
that might be the best placed football pitch i've ever seen
59
can't even get it all in even with the 0.5 zoom
60
i can't get the shot that's mental i don't think anyone
61
specific like football team like senior men's team would play here i think i just typed in like soccer field
62
or football pitch or whatever on google maps
63
and this is like the closest one to where i'm staying so cool to see it but there's something that's similar.
64
Give me 20 minutes, we've got to walk that way.
65
Wow, imagine playing soccer, football here as a kid.
66
Like you've got the car park up there and the Hudson Rivers there and that is a view.
67
I feel like there's great development in, it seems like kids soccer and girls soccer
68
but obviously the men's fandom needs to grow a little bit and hopefully it will do after the World Cup.
69
What's this, is it DUSC?
70
Downtown United.
71
Do you SC, Downtown United Soccer Club?
72
Do they have a men's senior team or is it just kids?
73
We used to have a men's team for the summer, but not for this summer.
74
So they'd have a full 11-a-side picture, and would they get fans coming to turn them up and watch?
75
Sometimes, yeah.
76
And what would they, stand around the top?
77
Yeah.
78
Oh, cool.
79
Yeah, just by the bleachers right here.
80
Right, I've been walking for a wee bit, as I've been doing in New York, just like taking it all in.
81
and yeah literally hours and hours tens of thousands of steps the past few days um
82
but i've stumbled upon literally and i've been recommended um a really good pizza place
83
which should be around the corner but who knows
84
if there'll be like a mental cue crazy line or whatever
85
but look how nice these vibes are
86
if it's too busy we'll go somewhere else
87
but i want to watch the football as well which is just kind of starting
88
This is my first ever time in here.
89
Oh my gosh, welcome.
90
I've been recommended to come.
91
If I was to have the best experience, what should I order?
92
I would say, do you like prosciutto?
93
Prosciutto?
94
Yeah, I think so.
95
I would get the Lindus.
96
Oh, the ham?
97
Okay, right.
98
Yes, it has prosciutto, burrata, basil, parmesan, olive oil.
99
Very good.
100
Nice one.
101
Cheers, lads.
102
Thanks mate.
103
World Cup's on, there's been a goal.
104
There's been a goal and there's been a pizza pizza
105
Where else can you have a pit and look at?
106
Pagio, Perlo, Pagio again, Pink Goodform,
107
Bernascone, Matarazzi, Kiss and the Wonka,
108
there was a few more Zapparese and Gaccio and Wotogaf.
109
Thank you mate, that was so good, cheers.
110
I beat the queue.
111
Did you see that?
112
There's an actual line in a little bloody James, a cordon.
113
Right there now.
114
I got right in and watched the first half of France, Sweden.
115
I love how invested everywhere is in the World Cup.
116
Whether you go to a pizza place, a cafe, a hotel bar, a regular bar, pubs, anything.
117
There's just World Cup on absolutely everywhere.
118
I love it.
119
Look at this place.
120
This feels like proper New York now.
121
It's just another one of them where it looks like it's just kind of open for the public to use.
122
I don't imagine you have to book it or anything.
123
Look at that.
124
Imagine this, nice sunny day like today with the lads.
125
Little footy and a bit of game of one touch.
126
Oh, and volleys bum smacks here against
127
that wall oh unbelievable boys i've just been walking for ages
128
and i've just seen i think this must be brooklyn bridge here how do we get up there ready
129
ecuador ecuador oh it's very good uh gatorade How much?
130
Five dollars.
131
Can I pay by Apple Pay?
132
Yes, one dollar tax.
133
I've finished that and we're not even at the first bit of the bridge.
134
Wow, look at this.
135
You can literally touch it there.
136
Bit arch of old lychee this, innit?
137
Oh, sick.
138
Look at this, this is one busy old bridge.
139
We're ruining our pic, sorry girl.
140
There's just too many and if you stop for one person there'd be a massive queue.
141
You've just got to make do with the background of the people, use them to your advantage in the photo, choose your moment wisely.
142
Like that, look at this.
143
1875, not as old as Queen's Park Football Club this bridge.
144
All Rangers I think, 1872, I think Stranraa maybe as well, possibly Kilmarnock, all older than the Brooklyn Bridge.
145
It might lack proper football stadiums absolutely anywhere in it, but it is one spectacular Let's set here then.
146
The waves are mental!
147
just goes on again in
148
that direction there any other city you come to it's got like one skyline maybe something else interesting
149
that makes it unique and you can like recognize
150
that city from it but new york i've never been there's over there
151
and the statue of liberty around there and there's all
152
that stuff there and then there's here and we're in brooklyn here
153
and you've got two bridges it's like what oh probably the
154
most photogenic city i've ever seen in my life i lived in sydney
155
and melbourne this takes the piss what's been your highlight of the trip from scotland I was just thinking that earlier on,
156
I think definitely that win in Boston, Haidi.
157
Staying in Providence and winning against Haidi was a...
158
Did you go to the Marlins, Miami Marlins?
159
No, no, no. Or the baseball, Fenway Park?
160
Not big baseball fights, but yeah.
161
Oh, fair enough.
162
And what's been the highlight of the World Cup for you, would you say?
163
I don't know, I personally would be a bit sceptical coming out, but I reckon just Americans have been brilliant.
164
Yeah, they've been so good haven't they?
165
It's definitely one thing I wasn't expecting.
166
They've been so welcoming.
167
Buying us beers and stuff.
168
And they've actually been quite keen on the football as well.
169
Yeah, well that's it.
170
It's been on every bar, everywhere you go, it's been shown on TV as well.
171
Speaking of the American Mike as well, the biggest thing about this whole thing is Americans are now getting into soccer.
172
And also, they're now realising that Scotland isn't Ireland and it isn't England.
173
Yeah, they finally figured that out.
174
I mean, it's a bit of education for them.
175
Yeah, 100% yeah.
176
Nice.
177
All the best, get back to Evinness.
178
Yeah, no, it's very nice.
179
I hope the wind wasn't too bad on that clip then.
180
Nairn County fans.
181
These free need a couple of quid to use one of these back home Oh mate that's not the real.
182
It's so hot though
183
so i know this video has been a bit random it
184
was supposed to be the i visited certain amount of stadiums in a day in new york kind of video
185
but everywhere is
186
so spread out literally to go to one stop is essentially
187
a day trip in itself of how long it takes to get there how long i'd to be there
188
and then get back again like new york is just too big to do
189
that so um it kind of turned into the rooftops the poking about in the one on staten island
190
and then yeah just a little bit on a couple of others
191
that we visited and then it just so happens
192
that it just ended on the last day of my trip this video this was the one
193
that i was yeah just kind of hoping to film over these last couple days
194
but i didn't quite get it done
195
but since it was my last day anyway i was always going to do a video sharing my thoughts
196
so we'll just like merge it all into one
197
and here we are are now let's start with scotland's tournament
198
as a whole it kind of felt a little bit like
199
how scottish teams have been in europe the past few years
200
for americans who don't know scottish clubs have got some great history in europe
201
and while rangers did reach the europa league final
202
and have had some good europa league results in the last
203
five to six years the recent couple of seasons have been awful
204
and it's like the coefficient is meaning
205
that from the following season after this one coming up i
206
think scotland are losing a place in europe they have five now i think it's going down to four
207
because of how poor it's been
208
and that's kind of how the world cup felt i think there's a mentality issue
209
that everybody speaks about in scottish football um and it obviously transcends club
210
and like tournament football right now like seems like
211
when scotland gets put on the world stage it can't quite
212
seem to yeah get themselves over the line yeah my one game
213
that i came to uh the massive moment covering scottish football through bleak winters at bloody wick
214
and Dalbiti star building up to Scotland in a World Cup
215
with a chance to qualify from the group for the first
216
time ever all they really had to do was get a point in
217
that game or if they'd have won
218
that would have been the most iconic Scottish football match of
219
all time this channel's got a weird way of doing things
220
and could the universe deliver for me on this occasion no
221
it couldn't we didn't even register a shot on target conceded within the first minute
222
and the game just fizzled out into a 1-0 to Morocco
223
in one of the most disappointing performances you could ever have imagined to go to at least at least
224
if it was a 4-3 loss you'd have had three goals a crazy thumbnail
225
and just something to shout and cheer about
226
but yeah in the end i paid thousands of pounds to go to that game
227
and scotland didn't register a single shot on target didn't make
228
the goalkeeper make a save there were very few moments of excitement
229
but the general overall experience was just absolutely incredible in boston
230
and i feel like maybe that's the universe's way of telling me there's a ying
231
and a yang to life you can't have the whole incredible amazing experience of everything
232
and get the win as well so
233
and scotland went out on goal difference again
234
if you know anything about scotland's record and history
235
and tournament football you will know how many times they've gone
236
out on goal difference i think maybe even goals scored one of the times as well um
237
but they are the biggest nation who's played in the most
238
amount of tournaments that's never made it past a group stage
239
think of all the great scottish players from down the years
240
kenny dalgalish dennis law graham soonest even more modern ones like darren fletcher
241
and the current crop like scott mctominay
242
and john mcginn andy robertson these guys have never made it past a group stage of any tournament ever
243
that they've qualified for
244
when i went to scotland v morocco i was hoping to see something different
245
but i just witnessed another edition of
246
that terrible record it makes all the hundreds of trips i've
247
ever done from the highland league to the west of scotland
248
league the premiership all the way around the spfl makes all
249
of it worth it just for these moments i've had with
250
all the scotland fans out here getting to know them back at home
251
and for them to know me through the videos
252
and to meet them out here and the love
253
that i got honestly was just absolutely unbelievable the best vlog
254
i ever made i think was on this trip the miami madness at the marlins
255
and then the south beach march the next day
256
so fun honestly just seeing people from back home
257
and seeing how much they're enjoying themselves it's just such a
258
shame it didn't go on as long as it did
259
but genuinely showed themselves to be the best fans in the world
260
and so much fun no animosity seeing bernard as well bernard ground opera fc going to boston seeing all
261
that honestly like the traffic cones everything just from getting there
262
i obviously got there halfway through their whole boston experience
263
so everyone was all settled in by then and it was just
264
so scottish when i got there
265
and it was just a home away from home the freedom
266
trail guys even just going through the freedom trail on my
267
own americans trying all the scottish snacks seeing boyd on the
268
day of the scotland v morocco game as well these are all memories
269
that will last forever on to the home euros next in 2028
270
so let's get past the groups lads please good luck to whoever the new manager is
271
and however the squad gets on genuinely want the best for scotland hope
272
that they do well
273
but for me i am english i always want to see england do well first
274
and foremost but live in scotland love scottish football
275
and would like to see you guys all the scottish
276
that are out there do just as well as humanly possible what a spot to do this outro
277
last day in america there's always something going on all right i've not done this
278
for ages we did this in glasgow a few times remember years ago
279
or the americans who had just started to watch the channel
280
won't remember we've got a bike let's get up let's get on it come on
281
oh the seat is so hot i need to put the seat down
282
but as they say it's just like riding the back oh freedom sick Oh, lads.
283
It was only these boys that told me to do this on my first day.
284
Made me think, at least do it on my last day.
285
And this is my first ever day in New York.
286
Wow.
287
What should I eat?
288
What should I drink?
289
What should I do?
290
Give me one thing to do and I'll try and do it today.
291
A bike.
292
Go biking, man.
293
Get a bike.
294
We just want to go on the pier.
295
Yeah, go on the pier.
296
So rent a bike and go on the pier.
297
Absolute legends.
298
What a way to get around this is.
299
I'm like halfway to Central Park already would have took me ages on public transport or walking or whatever.
300
I was so expensive in a cab.
301
Oh, look at this.
302
This is undoubtedly the best way to get around.
303
It's like 37 degrees Celsius today or something.
304
About 100 for the Americans, high 90s or something.
305
So it's bloody off.
306
So getting around with a bit of breeze on the old cab.
307
Someone's been saying I'm not wearing my cab right this whole time.
308
My arse is killing me.
309
Sweating my tits off, arse is killing me.
310
I need to find somewhere to dump the bike now.
311
Bike's away.
312
I am roasting.
313
I need to get out of the sun.
314
I literally have the best spot in New York right now.
315
what what the fk just as I say
316
that I need to get out of the sun I maybe just hallucinated a turtle floating about talking to me there
317
I'm honestly the sweatiest mess I've ever been let's get the bag out of the way
318
we're going to thank the Americans next
319
and since I made you try our snacks it's time
320
that on my last day here I try some of yours
321
so I got some Boston baked beans we were in Boston
322
literally one of my favorite places I've ever been in the world I like peanuts candy coated though what does
323
that mean and then milk duds they looked a bit like the writing from Twix
324
and Snickers had a baby and that was the writing that it created that's why I got them.
325
Okay, Milk Duds first.
326
How can you see that?
327
Chewy?
328
Fine.
329
Turtle one, eh?
330
I've got even a snapping turtle couldn't get through these.
331
And that's a bit like a curly-whirly texture from back home.
332
Try the Boston baked beans in a minute.
333
I just want to say, though, to all the Americans, thank you so much for everything during this World Cup.
334
Am I better off sitting down here?
335
Can you still hear me if I sit here?
336
Bloody hell, I need to get out of the heat.
337
Your positive energy is so infectious, and it just makes me want to, like, do well.
338
I've had, like, well over 2K subs in two to three weeks.
339
It's not like me to really mention subscribers that much and stuff, or even like ask that much in the videos.
340
I might put the logo to subscribe on for like a few seconds if I remember.
341
My job is to try and keep the content, the content as much as possible without...
342
This is why this feels a bit weird
343
because it's not like purely just a topic
344
and then making a video just on that and keeping it to that within a YouTube video.
345
I hope that people kind of appreciate that's the way I make the videos
346
and they subscribe and stay engaged because of that.
347
But to all the Americans who have subscribed, like I say, I really appreciate it.
348
and if you want to stay engaged going forward i'm going to have
349
so many videos coming up from back home in the uk
350
and all the different parts of the world i've had loads of different opportunities
351
and hopefully i can come back to america as well that's something i'm definitely keen on exploring
352
so let's see how it all goes
353
and um yeah stay subscribed see what i'm doing on instagram
354
and tiktok and stuff as well instagram
355
and youtube are my main two i post a lot here on youtube
356
so uh yeah and instagram stories
357
if you want to keep up to date with kind of
358
what i'm doing more day to day boston baked beans let's try these
359
and they've got to be a bit better than the milk
360
duds they are duds please be decent please be decent kind of look a little bit like smarty almost what
361
that reminds you of back home nothing's really
362
that color down the hatch six at one time oh boston
363
baked beans for the win back on two wheels i've had such a chill afternoon
364
chilling in central park last full day cycling around it now it's got a bit cooler it's about 4, 4.30.
365
But honestly, the hottest part of the day was mental.
366
I'm going to race them and them.
367
Smoke them.
368
Oh no. I've been done.
369
That's cheating.
370
That's an electric bike.
371
Just as I was going to go for gold then.
372
What a place to end the trip.
373
End of the bike trail.

Nesta prática, você vai mergulhar no diálogo de um vídeo sobre uma jornada por estádios de Nova York durante a Copa do Mundo. Vamos treinar a compreensão de conversas informais, a pronúncia de termos relacionados a esportes e a fluidez ao seguir um ritmo natural de fala. Além de aprender sobre culturas esportivas, você vai praticar o shadowing em inglês — uma técnica poderosa para melhorar sua pronúncia e intonação.
Vocabulário e frases-chave
- Ground hopping: Prática de visitar vários estádios em um curto período.
- Watch parties: Encontros para assistir a jogos juntos, com telões e convívio.
- Off-season: Período de recesso de uma liga esportiva, quando não há jogos oficiais.
- FanFest: Evento para fãs, com transmissões de jogos, atividades e comidas típicas.
- Pitch: Campo de futebol (em inglês britânico; nos EUA, é mais comum "field" para futebol, mas "pitch" é usado em contextos esportivos).
Dicas de prática
O vídeo tem um ritmo conversacional, com fala rápida e informal, perfeito para treinar o shadowspeak (técnica de repetir frases imediatamente após ouvir). Aqui está como fazer: 1. Assista o vídeo uma vez para entender o contexto. 2. Repita cada frase em seguida, tentando imitar a intonação e a velocidade do narrador. 3. Foque em palavras como "literally" ou "incredible" — elas têm uma ênfase que muda o tom da frase. 4. Para melhorar a pronúncia em inglês, preste atenção à diferença entre "pitch" (com som de "tch") e "field" (com som de "ld"). Lembre-se: o shadow speech é sobre se sentir confortável com a fluidez, não sobre ser perfeito. A cada repetição, você vai notar que sua fala fica mais natural! Aprender inglês com vídeos como este é uma forma divertida de mergulhar na cultura e aprimorar suas habilidades ao mesmo tempo. Você consegue!

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
