Unfortunate.....

An evening of friendly futsal in Sunway. Xander and friends from highschool make up a team of 5. 3 teams altogether, they decided to rotate every 7 mins. Evening started out well with Xander in between the post. Some good saves followed up by a blunder which let to a free header for the opponents. Other than that, everything was find.

Rotation took place and soon it was time for them to play again. Third game for them to be exact. Kev was feeling tired hence a swap with Xander took place. Kev is the keeper while Xander in defence. A roungh white shirt guy was on offence for the opposing team. He tried many times to get pass the defence on his own, but Xander has great positioning and manages to fends him off. All was well, until a quick change of pace enables him to catch Xander off guard but Xander manages to recover and catches up to him. The white-shirt guy lifts up his leg getting ready to shoot. Instinctively Xander slides in with his left leg in attempt to block the shot. *BAM* The loud sound of collision follows, a beautiful block it was but it came at a price. The impact was great and the weak ankle of Xander's couldn't take it. A brave attempt to continue playing was futile. The pain was too much for him to bear. Not wanting to risk his ankle anymore, he left the field.

lol, yeah thats pretty much what happened last Saturday. Was enjoying the futsal till this rough guy got pissed at not being able to pass me started letting go wild shots. Those who played with me often knows I always block shots without thinking but really regretted blocking that time. Only played 2 and a half games when the rest had about 6 games. The injury itself wasn't that bad. The pain went off after 2 days and no swelling occur but my left ankle really feels weak now. Need to get an ankle guard soon.

Champions League Football!!! Just finished watching it and I have to say.. Chelsea are one stupid team. Come on man, Riise gave them a free ticket to the finals! Drogba just had to lose his head and get sent off for a stupid throw-in ? Terry just had to slip while shooting the all important deciding penalty that could have ended it all? Anelka, a great goal scorer just had to shoot like a girl in the penalty shoot-out? ZZZZZZZZ

Congrats to Man U for being the champions of Europe for only the third time. XD
