Second game back playing football last night after illness, cancellations (some fair-weather dropouts) and christmas. Was 6v5 and I was on the five :0
Knee survived, body feels ok but it's maddening being so off the pace. Stretching for tackles that - in my head - I'm winning all day long and ending up foot away from them, getting a ball played into your run and missing the touch buy half a foot. Sure it'll all come back in time, but there was a glorious square ball for an easy tap-in to finish off a great move and I couldn't even get a touch on it. Never felt more middle-aged.
