A game, a goal, a win, and another shot to the face
We had a co-ed game tonight and it was another good one. A close first half ended with us up 1-0. We added another early in the 2nd, but then the opposition pressed hard in hopes of getting their own goal. Instead, James stole the ball and fed me for a sweet breakaway goal that curled under the goalie's hand to the near post. We won 3-0, our first shutout of the year.
But the real star of the game was Elise, who took a soccer ball in the face, crunching her old sunglasses against her nose and causing a little cut. She also got a bruise from the ball. She looked pretty fierce after the game, maybe even tougher than Carlos after his cut the game prior!
