Goal

”Way to go son!”

His dad stood at the side line, cheering him on. It didn’t matter whether his team lost or won, but he was always there. Today Josh scored a goal, his first, and only goal. The keeper was nearly asleep, but that didn’t matter. He scored a goal and his dad was there to see it.

”Dad!! He ran over to the white line. ”Dad, did you see? I scored a goal!”

”I sure did, and it was amazing.”

Mud on his knees, Josh ran back to his team mates, who brought him into a team huddle. Only five more goals and they could finally win their first match.
