Blue Dragons Begin Another Streak
September 16th, 2007Sebastian's team, The Blue Dragons, have begun another winning streak by beating their second opponent of the fall soccer season.
The Blue Dragons defeated the Green Machine by a score of 3-1. Sebastian was on the field for all but one goal. Sebastian made a couple key moves and almost had a great scoring chance — you'll see him getting knocked down as he starts to attempt his power kick around 55 seconds into the video:
The weather was cool, windy, and rainy at the beginning of the game. By the end, the rain stopped but it didn't warm up much. Poor Sebastian played the entire first half (they have 3 shifts per half) and was stuck on the field with only his regular soccer shirt, but by the second half, he was able to get his Spider-Man sweatshirt on under his jersey.
The most interesting goal (not seen here) was a hard clear by one of the green defensemen — it richocheted off of a Blue Dragon's shinguard and quickly skittered past three defensemen and the goalie.
So, as I mentioned, the Blue Dragons now have a two game winning streak after dropping the last game of the spring season against the Purple team. As luck would have it, the fall season is one game shorter than the spring, and the Purple team is the only team they don't play a second time. It's too bad, too, because that was a great, spirited game.
