The soccer match

I've been well and train up my fitness again. Still I faced weather problem, which is the rain.

Finally, we managed to meet up on a friday, and the sun was pretty good. But there was a little rain just before we came. The field is not so perfect, with muds and little puddles of water.







I managed to master the dribbling technique that I have learned, from one of the top footballer, Cristiano Ronaldo. It was his famous stepover move, and I managed to learn it from videos I've watched from the internet.

I even dribbled the ball while running and ran past my friend, Ivan. Finally, I learn the basic shooting skill, and shoot the ball to score the goal. My another friend, Eugene, was the goalkeeper. He didn't manage to save the ball that I have shot.

This is one of the basic skills I have learnt through this short period. I cannot compare myself with those footballers out there. They are paid to train almost everyday and play soccer matches. How I envy them, earning big money and getting to play their favourite sport.

The road to accomplish my goal

I have drawn up a timetable for my goal few weeks back. It was part of my Personal Development goal which I have to achieve.

For the next few weeks, I have to work on my soccer skills, which is dribbling. I looked at soccer videos from Youtube to learn the tricks before trying out at home or under the void deck. The goal was to dribble with the ball, run past the defender and score a goal.

As December is the monsoon month, I expected rain and muddy fields throughout the month. Lucky for me, there was a few days which didn't rain at all. So I had my first match with my friends.

We didn't take any pictures but I managed to gain some experience on the field. In my next match, I will provide pictures to show that I have achieved my goal.

Another problem I faced during this period was I fell ill just before the term break. Doctor told me to avoid sports activity for a week or so, until I have fully recover. So till the next post, I have restrain from sports activity.
