Soccer Game: Something close (7-7?)

Hey, this was a much closer game. The other team came out strong in the first half, scoring 5 goals pretty easily. We were playing with only 3 defenders and no right halfback, so it was a challenge. We had a couple of good people up front on the counterattack, though, so it wasn't a total loss. The second half was another story, though, since we started converting opportunities, passing the ball up the field, and using our speed advantage on the attack. A few people on the other team started getting really frustrated and yelled a lot, which was silly and annoying. I had a pretty decent game at right fullback, covering a lot of ground, breaking some stuff up, not getting burned too many times by their forwards. Nice to not have a huge speed deficit for a change! So it was an enjoyable game, and I think we may have actually tied. Amazing.
