8 - 0

Week after week. Match after match. We lost. Until one fateful Tuesday night a couple weeks back, I was on the winning team. Since then football has changed, Brian who was the star of the opposition had bragging rights for 2 months, but something strange happened…I could suddenly play football again. For too long I put in pitiful performances and had let Sam down tremendously, I could not control the ball and I couldn’t score a goal and then it all came back to me and we started to win games, thus culminating in our 8 - 0 win last night. We had the perfect blend of skill and effort and we ran through Brian’s team as if they didn’t even exist.

I can’t remember how many times football has saved me. In my second school I would have a been a total geek had it not been for football, even the most popular could muster the words “yea, you’re pretty good”

Justice has been served
