First Match back at the Bridge

Well, played my first match in ages for the Seabridge. We lost 3-0, but myself I put in a good performance, I played 60 minutes which was good for me but not for the team. As we were one goal down (whichwas a fluke!) when I went off and then we lost 3-0!?! I had there left winger in my pocket, constantly tackling him and running past him with the ball.
My legs began to get really tired second half and my left hamstring starts to twinge a little, so I was glad I came off. Had one shot blocked which was destined for the back of the net and another pile driver of a shot the keeper some how managed to save. In the first half I put numerous quality crosses into the box, which most of the time were not even met by our players.
Overall, not a bad performance, a little static on goal kicks and movement off the ball, but as the games being to roll on I think I will fall into the rhythm of things. We have got the same team again this next weekend so really we have to be looking to win.
