How wonderfull, have fun with my friends playing soccer in our own team at Sea side Park on Sunday.Last sunday we played against a Mexican team called Aztecas at Seaside park with my friends, i had fun which is the most important thing but as most of the time we lost, for some reason i keep making big mistakes and lots of errors, everything is just not going well for me.
The score was 4 to 1, it was very thugh for us specially for me becacause litterally my defence SUCKED , so I had alot of work and I am not goint to lie so I gonna admit that I did made few mistakes and a real big one which caused a goal, being a goalkeeper is thughest than it looks but I enjoy playing it even more when I play with my friends.

Feeling bad?
Mmm this weekend wasn’t as good as I specked it to be , it was pretty bad in many ways so I shouldn’t be talking about it but yeah, also I didn’t play no games at all I’m busy like all the time but this weekend wasn’t good just things didn’t work out and I don’t feel good about it, besides mothers day which was also bad because my mother is in Ecuador so I couldn’t be with her, my family organized a party on my aunts house on Saturday, man! It was bad! All my aunts felt bad because they teenager’s children were acting bad so made them feel bad, may be the only good thing on my aunts house which is play volleyball but it didn’t go well because I didn’t enjoy it! You may ask why didn’t you enjoy it? The answer is because I didn’t want to play that much thinking I was going to play next day.
Now soccer time! Oh sunny Sunday perfect for a soccer game maybe two or three but guess what? I didn’t play at all!!! First of all the Mexican team didn’t call me and the kind of coach dude never picked up the phone which he always does but he didn’t this time, the Ecuadorian team sent me a text saying that we were going to play at new heaven at 12:00 pm and he sent me that text at 11:40 it didn’t give me time to get ready or go or anything and the other Mexican team didn’t say nothing either, I just stood home without doing nothing spending about 12 hours on YouTube and 4 playing the demo of the UFC game on my Xbox, what a horrible way to spend my weekend.

Warren Harding's soccer team?
The Warren Harding high school’s soccer team is not going very well, Mr. Tyson and I are trying to make the best team we can for this year, but as you know is not going well, we have try to call people to come to practice so we can be ready for next year but they just don’t show interest as they should for this important sport. I told Mr. Tyson that we should be ashamed because the girl’s soccer team even known they are not official are practicing and our team that is the main thing we’re just waiting for next year without doing nothing, well at least me and Mr. Tyson can’t complain because we are playing personally so we still in shape and getting better but we need to do something for the school team.
Also yesterday we were coming up with new ideas for the team as formation and tactics for the team, I came up with the best idea we could have thanks to I like soccer a lot and I besides playing it in real life I also play a lot of soccer on my Xbox so pro evolution soccer is the game if we want to have fun and create your own team in many ways so I came up with this formation of 3-1-2-1-3 which can take us to lead next year, he thought that was a great idea and we may use it next year, I have the feeling next year is going to be a great year for us.

Money?
Hmm money problems are really bad, I don’t know what to do, I want to play with the Ecuadorian team called “Ecuachamos” somewhere in New Heaven, and the actually want me to play with them but they need 48 dollars for I think the inscription of the team or something like that, the problem is: where am I going to get the money from???
Ok I’m 15 years old, I can’t get a job, the only way of getting money is asking my dad for it but I don’t have a good relationship with him so that’s a problem, I really want to play with them!!! They have a good and pretty decent team I think we could to something with it in the future.
Other problem is that I want to play with them but the games are on Sundays I’m already playing with a team called “New Mexico” at Success Par so it’s a problem if someday the make both games at the same time or around the same time, also my friend wants me to play with him but if I accept is not going to go well because they will be three games on the same day and I have school on Monday so that will be a problem because I’m usually tired already so more for me will be impossible, but the only thing I want is play soccer because I love to do it and I do it well, even know I being sucking in the last few games.

The enemies of a goalkeeper…
Yes as everyone goalkeepers also have enemies and things that can make the goalkeeper have a bad day on the field, in soccer is important to understand the facts that can take you to be the hero of your team. Soccer has advantages and things that are not good in this case; the first goalkeeper enemy (which I hate so much but I love it when I’m not playing) is THE RAIN.
The Rain in this case is the bad guy for goalkeepers, to start when the field is wet literally SUCKS! Because usually in the goal because of the goalies’ dives that little part of the field is 85% dirt, which with some nice and wet rain gets all muddy which is and enemy for me or any goalkeeper. Also when is raining the goalkeeper gloves get wet and so does the ball which drive the goalie to a bad act called “slip”.
Last Sunday I went to play at Success Park but… OH NO!!! It was raining, oh cruel rain! Which was going to drive me to one horrible game for me, first I kept getting stuck because of the mud so it was hard for me to dive, also when I did it was so slow that they scored anyways and I finish myself all muddy!
Now the slips it was a really easy shot, it went right to my hands but guess what??? It slipped but lucky my I had mi friend the pole that saved me from that one, it’s really hard to keep with rain so if you are goalie and its raining make sure to try not do so bad.

Friends on the field !
Friends on the field oh great idea! The goalkeeper has many friends on the field, some of them are really important for the result of a good game for the goalkeeper, first a goalkeeper has to be friends with the ball as every other player but the goalie has to be something like “best friends” in this case, if a goalkeeper is not friend with the ball everything is just going to go wrong because he’ll be scared to the ball and things like that.
Now the poles on the goal, this is another really important factor but as you know poles are not alive but the way this works is may be a little weird, when the goalkeeper is friend with his 3 poles for some reason it makes a magnetic field, as crazy as it sounds it works, when the forward of the other team shoots and the goalkeeper doesn’t keep it and you think is going to be goal… what’s going to happen??? Yeah!!!! It hits the pole!!! Oh miracle is just a great way to save the day.
The defenders, last of the most important of the goalie’s friends, the defenders have to be ready at all times so the strikers won’t be a problem to the goalkeeper, but that’s not the only thing , the goalkeeper has to have a connection with his defenders so they can understand him easier and everything the goalie means and tries to do, and most of the times save him from problems, in a good team goalie and defenders are the ones who have to make sure to keep the score on 0.

The Goalkeeper
To start this we going to put a definition of what goalkeeper is thanks to wikipedia : "In association football, each team's goalkeeper defends his team's goal and has special privileges within the game. The goalkeeper's main job is to stop any penetration of the ball into the goal.In many team sports, a goalkeeper (termed goaltender, netminder, goalie, or keeper in some sports) is a designated player that is charged with directly preventing the opposite team from scoring by defending the goal. Such positions exist in hurling, association football, Gaelic football, International Rules Football, handball, ice hockey, field hockey, netball, water polo, bandy, lacrosse, floorball and a number of other sports." this also is important, i found a line which explain something : "Usually special rules apply to the goalkeeper that do not apply to the other players. These rules are often instituted to protect the goalkeeper, being an obvious target for dangerous or even violent actions."
Violent? yes the goalkeeper is the one who has to defend the goal with everything he can and the strickers of the other team are going to start trying harder to score and the could do things that may hurt the goalie.
Also something that gets me really mad is when people say : "why didnt you keep that that was an easy shot", well i want to see them try, in the moment when he shoots you have to think about other factors or ideas the player may have as passing, crossing or which side is he going to choose when is 1 on 1.
But the thing that is really offensive and I dont like when people say : "Goalie si the easyest job on the field, all you do is stand there and wait for the ball to come.", Well people YOU ARE WRONG, that is not the only thing the goalkeeper does, he has to be ready at all times, the goalie has to have a different prospective of the game and see and visualise from the goal the way the other players are playing.The goalkeeper has to comand the defense and give advise and support to the strickers and midfielders and probably yell the whole game, also the goalkeeper has to have a fast reaction and change of decition.
I think the goalkeeper is the most important job in the game , phisically is not as rough as the other players like be running around the whole game but mentally is really tough and when the ball is near then is on and the phisical challenge starts because i have to know what to do , how to dive and how to stop the ball, if you dont do it right you may get hurt.
Personally i love to be a galkeeper and they say Im really good at it which makes me really proud.
