The Edge of Nothing

Later on went to football and although the teams were the same as last week when we huffed and puffed but never seemed like winning and lost by two in the end, we somehow started like rockets. I actually made a smart save in goal when the scores were still 0-0 and we were 4-0 when I scored an almost Bergkampesque goal, pulling a cross down out of the air with one foot and then stroking the ball into the net with the other. It was commended by several of my teammates both at the time and at the end of the game, which isn't something that happens very often in our games. Which felt good, having struggled to get into the game last week and wondered if age was catching up with me. It still is, but if I can still score goals like that then I can't be completely decrepit! We won 7-3 in the end btw.
