Soccer game

It was physical education again today and our class was made to play soccer. Since in primary school, I have been a fan of soccer clubs but I am not actually good in playing the game. So, I was not entirely thrilled when I heard we were playing soccer. Thinking that I would pull the team down if I were to play striker, I decided to play the goalkeeper instead which is the only thing I am good at in soccer.

The game went on for a few long minutes. I did not take my eyes of the ball. I made a few good saves if I could say so myself. Then it happened, I let my guard down for a few seconds and a goal went in with a blink of an eye. Luckily my teammates were understanding and did not blame me. Before you know it, we were trailing. I got tired of playing goalkeeper and was replaced with one of my friends. A few minutes later, one of my friends scored the equalizer. Then a few other goals were scored from both sides. Then it happened, the ball was lying in front of me. I took my chances and dribbled the ball and then I took the shot.

The ball went in and I finally scored a goal. It was very exciting to score a goal and the best thing was that it was the all important equalizer. I received cheers from all my teammates. A few minutes later, they kicked a ball which hit a cone. It did not go in the goal but the opposing team claimed that it did. We had quite an argument but they still kept insisting that it was a goal. in the end, we gave in and they won the match. It does not really matters if we won or lost. The most important thing is that we tried our best and that is more than enough.
