“Goal!!!!” The roar of the crowd is the best sound. Hearing them chant your name. If you ever scored a winning soccer goal in the last two minutes then you know how I feel. Beautiful kick and perfectly flowing right into the corner of the goal. Now that’s what you call perfection. Knowing you are the star of the game is the best feeling. Enduring until the end is the way to go for all sports. Just because the game is almost over does not mean you can’t win it. You’re in it to win it so endure till the alarm sounds. That’s what i did.
It didn’t just magically happen. I thought the game was over when there was six minutes left. Then i looked at the scoreboard and i didn’t feel right. The score was not how i wanted it so i needed to do something …show more content…
I slide tackle, get up and quickly trap the ball with my foot. Looking down the field, no one is open. So many kids but there is one opponent for everyone of my teammates. I feel trapped. I look at the scoreboard and see that there is now three minutes left. “Looks like this is up to me”, i think to myself. I start moving the ball around one kid, then another, next thing i know i am at halfway marker. Putting the ball smoothly through other players. I move up into the goalie box. My heart is thumping. The fans are nervous and not ready for what was about to happen, and neither was I. Somehow the ball flies through the air and into the corner of the goal like a bullet. I couldn’t believe it and neither could the fans. I have won it. I won the game for my team and I.
I learned a valuable lesson through this game. Don’t give up if you think it’s over. Give up when it IS over. Endure until the end and there will be a reward. Don’t give up until you win it. I could’ve given up when there was six minutes left and we lost the game. Instead, I kept going. We ended up winning 3-2. I will never forget this lesson and I hope you won’t
