First Soccer Game
Yesterday, I just played the first real soccer game of my life. I’ve coached kids plenty, and I’ve played against them, but never a serious game against adults. We lost 12-3 after scoring the first goal. I mostly played left back and I guess I played about as well as most of the guys. I didn’t hurt the team too bad, but I didn’t help much either. I am most proud of blocking a shot with my thigh. I don’t know how many days I will be sore. There is another game next week, and I hope I am recovered enough for that. We’ll see. I think I might try dribbling the ball next game. No one played mid field and tried to take the ball down. We didn’t look like a cohesive team. Whatever maybe next week we’ll be better.
