It was our first trial match and it was the debut for the R10 Teimpo boots that I had purchased the day before. Nervous stuff ey? Anyway they felt great and all on the team were rather breathtaken by the boots and how they looked. The only question yet to be answered was coming.
How Did They Make Me Play?
Great touch and feeling the boots gave me. Then the unthinkable happened. 5 minutes into the game I took a run down the right. Bam! I got past one then a few swipes to get past another. By this time, my team mates were nowhere to be seen and it was just me and three defenders. Like an ambush, an opposition player came up from behind and slid in for the ball. Crash, I fell to the ground hard.
How Did It Happen?
As I was going down, I decided that the best way to get the ball back would be to rebound off my left arm to ascertain possession before the others.Wrongdescision as I fell onto my wrist pushing it back with all my weight behind it. I instantly knew something was wrong
I ran off fearing the worst and when ice was applied, it swelled like a melon. I’ve been pretty sad about this lately and this was a good place to vent it out. I went for an X-Ray and the radiologist has the nerve to say to me:
It’s definately a fracture, no doubt about it. Let’s see what the doctor says
In her face when the qualified doctor comes up to me and says:
The X-Ray has revealed there is no bone damage, you need to get some rest only
Thank God because I wasn’t looking forward to months out of the competition that were coming up. I needed to represent and this injury could have been a lot worse.
Fate Sure Is Cruel
So now I gotta sit through all the games and watch my team mates take out the opposition. I don’t know about you, but when I watch others play football, I just need to get out of my seat and join them. Football gives me joy and not being able to play is the greatest way to make me depressed. Here’s to good health and a speedy recovery
