Challenge Task 2 of 2, __str__

Can't figure out what's wrong with this code. Thanks for helping me out!

game_str.py 
from game import Game

class GameScore(Game):
  def __str__(self):
    print("Player {}:{}; Player {}:{}".format(1,self.score[0],2,self.score[1]))

The Challenge wants you to return the value and you are printing it out. Simple mistake:

return "Player {}: {}; Player {}: {}".format(1,self.score[0],2,self.score[1])
