The Tree Is Up

Met my friend L for a long overdue catch-up in the Espy in the afternoon. Football was the last game of the year. Without the two speedy young strikers, S and J, a low scoring game was predicted. Whether that was the reason or the teams were just more defensively minded for a change, goals were indeed at a premium. Thought it wasn't going to be my night (again) when I hit the underside of the bar but finally got on the scoresheet with our fourth goal, which turned out to be decisive as we won 4-3.
