My first soccer goal! by Albatross

I've been playing soccer for about 5 years now. I've always loved it. It's a great sport with a lot of running and strategy. Usually, I play defense because I'm really fast. At practice though, I've been working on my skills a lot though- a lot of passing and shooting and dribbling. I always want to go forward and try to score a little bit more, but I have to remember my defensive responsibilities.

Anyways, I asked the coach if he could put me in as striker one game, just to try it. I had to be persistent and keep asking and it finally worked. I played striker for the first time and with the 2nd half almost over- I got a great pass halfway that led to a breakaway. It helped that I'm pretty fast because I kept running and running and it was just the goalie and me. I didn't even have time to think about being nervous- it happened so fast. When I got near the goalie I tried this move that I'd been working on and it actually worked!

I totally faked out the goalie and scored!!!! It was so much fun. Thanks for reading and I hope you post this!

Wow- great story Albatross! Thanks very much! Any comments on this story? Do you have your own? Do you remember your first goal?
