Chapter 18!

Blood courses through my veins. The ball is less than a meter away from me. However, so is their last defender. I push my legs harder against the floor, trying desperately to gain more power and speed. I feel myself moving faster, edging closer to the ball with each step.

My left foot finally makes contact with the ball and I quickly put myself in front of it, Blocking their defender from stealing the round object from me. I stop the ball with the inside of my foot, still blocking their defender with my back, and look up for any open team mates. However, skylar is blocked off by one of the other teams defenders and Chloe, a midfielder, is trying desperately to contain her opposing player. Sighing in frustration, I look toward the goal. I guess it's just me, myself and I, well and the other player who keeps trying to hold my hand.

Taking a deep breathe I inconspicuously shoulder barge the defender, if soccer was a contact sport I would be dropping this bitch like its hot. However, because it's not i've got to bring my ninja skills into action.

I feel the girl stumble back slightly and I take this as my queue to leave. Pushing off with my right foot I sprint as fast as I can, while dribbling the ball, towards the goal. From the corner of my eye I see the opposing teams other defender charging directly towards me and the girl I just shoulder barged is right behind me.

Still running, I quickly put my right leg in front of my left and chip the ball over the opposing defenders head. I sprint past the defender and gain contact with the ball as soon as it lands back on the ground. However, It takes me a few seconds to regain control of the ball again.

(Rabona, the move lily has just preformed)

By the time I have regained control I'm about a meter away from the goal. The goal keeper comes out of her net and tries to tackle the ball of me. However, as she sticks her foot forward, I gently tap the ball With the outside of my foot causing it to move to the left a little.

This causes the goal keeper to loose her balance slightly. I take advantage of the small window of time I have won myself and bring my left foot back. I swing my leg forward, the top of my foot making contact with the ball. The ball lifts off the ground in a spinning motion sending it flying into the top right hand side corner.

Just as the ball lands in the back of the net a loud ear piercing whistle sounds declaring the end of the game.

I've just scored a goal. The score was 1:1 before, which means that we won!

Holy shit! We actually won!

I turn around in complete awe, placing my hands on top of my head. I just scored the winning goal for my dream team, the team that I have been obsessed with since I was 5 years old! The loud cheers coming from the stands are being projected around this small stadium, making them sound louder than they actually are.

I look around the stands to see the tigers fans jumping up and down in glee, while the fans who have traveled the distance to support their beloved team have their heads hanging low and are slowing dissipating from the stands.

I feel a sharp pain hit my side as two arms encircle my waist, causing us to fall to the floor in a heap. I look up to se the bright eyes of Skylar.
