The Strength Of The Team...
Just had my dinner, which sound quite absurd to many, especially when someone takes his dinner at around 12am, which is during the woo hours of a new day. That sounds like breakfast to me but still, I dont care much about it. Haha... I mean, its just about the intake of meals and I had soccer earlier on so I have no choice but to had my meal at a later time. Haha...
Well, soccer was quite fun today but I wasnt doing my best. Jeremy joined us today and I hope he does enjoy the play. He really missed one opportunity to score in the game. Anyway, it was nice of him to join us. Haha, thanks dude...
Well, a group of people came to join us so it was the start of the 'Goal Tally' records. Anyway, the 1st game was a nice start but a bad ending. We lost the game 3-2, with me having the opening goal while Eugene had the 2nd. It was a nice play but then, I was having problems with my teammates. The passing wasnt good enough. I mean, I was not at the right place and the right time and I can see Jack was frustated at my type of play. Okay, my bad for that but I guess i'm not kind of guy who plays as a sole striker. Attacking midfield should be a better way to describe me.
I prefer to take the ball and start pushing it forward. I'm not that kind of person who finds spaces between other players and start to attack. Its too hard for me and I dont have the speed to do that. I do dribble at times but as a striker, I wont have the chance to do that and I probably will have a hard time when 3 players are guarding you. That's quite different, slightly, when you are at midfield where you still can cut 2 players and deliver a shot. Haix... With so much explanation, its hard to get people to understand what I'm talking about. They may know better than me about my weakness but love it or not, thats all I gonna say. Nothing big about this. As long as I play the game like I'm always be, then thats it.
The 2nd match was much better, especially the ending when Jack, Jimmy and I scored with a goal each. Eugene had 2 goals in him and thanks to previous contribution from Nan, we lead the game with a huge margin. Jimmy's goal was the best among all, with a pass from Gavin (goalie) to Eugene, he passed the ball to Szaywan and Szaywan creates th opportunity for Jimmy with a cross. Jimmy's head connects the ball and let it pass the opponent's goal and that's it! Amazing! Good one touch and a stroke of genius towards the goal.
Well, Gavin was able to make a cleansheet but a mistake in the last 10 seconds before lights off, denied him the chance to make his first ever cleansheet in the 'Goal Tally' board. Well, luck was not on his side but he did proved that it doesnt need luck to win the game. Its concentration plus teamwork and communication that makes the game go flawless. Nice job guys...
While for me, as usual, I gonna train hard again for soccer. I sometimes feel like taking a break or two but its hard to do so with so many commitments. Yeah... I'm always TOO busy but maybe, to ensure everyone's happy, I'm just doing too much. Tired... That's how I feel... but the journey will never ends and effort must be put in no matter what. Life... Yeah, that's my life... The journey shall end when I really cant move on... but it wont happened, I guess...
