I ended up with a fan club cheering from the sidelines last night.
This never happens, not least because I'm not what you would call a good player. I can get in people's way, I can occasionally kick to the right team, but mostly I just run up and down trying to stay near the opposition player to prevent them getting the ball.
The sad thing is that I didn't realise that they were barracking for me until after the game (new t-shirts, I'd forgotten what number I have).
The game itself was... odd. At the end of the first half we were 5-0 down.
The second half we came out on fire, and started clawing our way back into the game. Steve scored. UKChris scored. I failed to score but Marcus got the rebound and scored.
We ended up drawing 6-6, which was fairly impressive. We came within a cm of winning (sooner or later I will miss that crossbar and get the ball in the goal).
I have no idea why we were so ordinary in the first half though, we just didn't pull it together at all.
And that was![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
epideme's last game before he heads back to the UK. Thanks for keeping, come back and play again soon!
And I'm really, really glad we didn't lose it 5-0!
