I had an unusually rough soccer game last night. We won, against a team that we had never beaten, because they were short 3 people. Even short, they are still really good and it took all of our efforts to stop them. It didn’t help that the ref was calling a rather one-sided game. He even sent a fan to the parking lot — the father of one of the high school girls on my team — because apparently the dad was harassing him. I got knocked down twice, like me-upended-and-lying-in-the-dirt knocked down, and he never called a foul. Falling down isn’t unusual for soccer, of course, but it’s extremely unusual for me. I’m bigger than most of the girls out there, and have momentum on my side!!
But we won. And we’d never beaten them before. And they are really good. So even if we had 11 and they had 8…I’ll take it!
Congrats on the win- from the sound of it, you may be better prepared for any stray elbows in your direction during the run
