Another week and unfortunately another loss for my co-ed team.  The highs and lows of the game are the greatest moments and the most frustrating misses.  Played pick up games 3 times this week.  Scored goals in all of them (including a hat trick on Saturday in a full 11v11 game.  2 of which were left footed shots - I'm right footed.  The best score was an overhead cross sent in to the six yard box that I met with my left on the fly and buried in the net.  Those goals where you connect like that are incredible!)

However, the game today we had a couple of chances before going down 1-0 early in the 1st half.   We re-grouped and I had a single bounce through ball that I was able to run onto.  I was in behind the d but had one closing fast.  Right as I went to strike the ball inside the 18, it bounced and I just got underneath it.  It just cleared the crossbar.  Don't even know why I didn't push it to the corner as I had the keeper beaten.  Where was the finish god on that shot?  I guess he showed his power the day before in the pick up game.  But, be that as it may, I simply did not the finish the shot to pull us even.  Frustrating but not as bad as the game last week.
