Sunday's Chillies game was against a tough team, against at least one player that I've faced before. He's pretty good, and definitely used to be better than me, but I really think that I've progressed to the point of being a better player than him. That being said, we vary in many attributes, and he's more of a striker than I am (better finishing, harder shot), but my dribbling is better, my left foot's better, and I can contain him while playing defense, while he can't contain me.
That being said, he scored the first goal for the opposition as I (sort of) marked him, because I was pulled off my marker because a teammate got dangled. I ran at the guy who got by, and he had a shot, but he passed it.
I assisted one of our goals when I sprinted up with the ball with one man to beat, but beyond that, I had no other direct contributions. I missed two free kicks fairly badly, too.
However, I was crowned king of the dangles by rainbowing some guy pretty badly. I'd have had a good shot on goal had I not been fouled.

Mine was better. Seriously.
But I bloody well rainbowed a guy. It was the best thing I have ever done in my entire life. It was somewhat spur of the moment, too. I thought to myself quickly "how should I creatively beat this guy?", and the rainbow was my first though. The conditions were perfect; he was placed the ideal distance from me, he was never going to expect it, and he wasn't closing me down. to pull it out, and so I took a small touch, and executed it perfectly. I flicked it over my left shoulder, and ran to his right shoulder, so I got the bloody thing right over his head.
The best part was the cheering that came from my bench afterwards. I came off after I took the free kick fairly badly, and gloated a little.
We ended up losing 5-3, in spite of being dominated in the first quarter of the game. I thought the scoreline was nice considering that, but we definitely played much better in the second half. We had them on their heels too, at some points. A fun game though, for sure, aside from the fact that I had three other partners playing midfield with me. Afterward, I got kicked out of Hooters, hence the title.
