On Saturday night, I did something I never thought I would – I went to a soccer match.
I was invited as a guest speaker to attend a pre-event function at the Perth Glory home game. The room was full of anticipation: the Glory hadn’t won for a while, and everyone was feeling nervous. Not knowing anything about soccer, I wasn’t sure what I would make of it, whether I’d get “the bug”.
Well, I did! What an exciting game! With only about ten seconds to spare, the Glory silenced their critics and scored the winning goal. The crowd literally roared and didn’t stop for ages. A live game really rules over watching it on the TV.
I’ll be watching the team closely in the future…might even go to another game.Â
