Ok, Football today was going to be crap. We were playing the second top team in the league, and I was stuck in goal. So we kick off, and I'm suprised to find that I am actually in form. It's nearing the end of the first half, and I'm even more suprised to find that I haven't let in any goals yet, when, Cerys scores US a goal at the other end. All of a sudden, we are winning against the team second in the league. Just after that, I pull off a diving save to my left, which prompts my coach to ask me to play in goal second half.
Second half starts, and they nearly get a goal right away, followed by us nearly getting another goal. I'm just starting to think I may make it without letting any goals in, when they boot a ball down the right wing. I thought the ball was curling towards to penalty box, but, It didn't get to the box, so I have to kick it, but I miss it, and they are left with an open goal, and score. Damn.
Five minutes later, they have a corner, everyone is covered, I know where they all are. The corner is taken, I run forwards, get a finger to it, but not enough and it goes behind me, where one of my own players is waiting to let it bounce off their chest into our open goal. Shit.
Five minuted before the end, Cerys boots the ball from near the left hand corner flag from our end, but her knee locks as she does it, and the stumbles a short way before falling in our penalty box. No-one on the pitch except me sees it, and I start shouting for Steve and the ref to stop the game, which they eventually do, and Cerys has to hobble off.
We just make the end of the game at 2-1. Which is unfortunate, although before the game it is a score I would've happily taken. Oh well. Life goes on.
Unfortunately, almost the exact same thing happened to Reading today. 1-0 up at half time, then two goalkeeping errors let the opposition come back and win 2-1. Which seriously annoying because Reading are waayyy above Preston in the table. Grr
I have to get up earlyish tomorrow. I'm going down to watch the grand prix at 8, but I'm not going to be able to watch all of it, because I'm going to my grans house to see my cousins at 9. Then when I get home, I'll have to do my homework. Which is going to take Foreverr. So annoying.
