Sister's Soccer Game


Today, after my classes, I zipped over to see my sister play soccer for her high school. Normally I try not get heated in a family members sports event, because I never wanted to be that parent.
 But at this particular game I found myself yelling at the ref and actually engaging in it. Which is rare, but not unheard of. My sister and her teammates were actually playing really well, she even managed to pull off two of three back-heels successfully and set up a couple of attacking opportunities, which is goo for a Right Back. For those who do not know a Right Back is a player who plays on defense on the right side of the field, and is tasked to attack and defend at the same time. The fist goal of the game was an unfair penalty for the other team.  The opposing girl had been tackled, clean fully, but lost the ball in the challenge to our team. But the ref gave them a plenty when it was not and was on the outside of the box. But my sisters team pulled one back in an awesome fashion, shooting from a tight angle and swerving in. They had a chance to be up 3-1 when one free kick missed the top corner by inches and another rocketed off the cross bar. Even after that they lacked the killer instinct to finish it off with many other poacher like goals but eh. Then with a few minutes to spare the other team popped a ball over the goalie and it floated in. Gah I was so mad. It seemed they could not catch a break. But it was all good cause my sister played a good game and got over it over dinner. By I now think I will going to her games more often as they are quiet fun to watch. Just have to remember to keep calm =P
