Today, I finally scored a goal in a soccer game. Too bad it was in our own net. FML

When I made my first basket it was in the other teams basket. I was so embarrassed I cried. The refs gave them a point for it. That was the one point they beat us by...

Heads up OP. A goal is a goal! While you sit on the bench for the next few games you can see how it should be done. Just tell your coach you were trying to confuse the other team by working your way from the back up. Good luck.

This is what's passing for **** my life these days?

In soccer, this happens. Pick yourself up and keep playing! Just like in any other sport!

It ain't about how hard you can hit, it's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward! Just keep playing dude, a real goal will come to you naturally

You people are too optimistic.

#15, I play soccer...as you can tell by name. And if this attitude didn't work, I wouldn't be talking about it. Half the game is in your head, if you can't discipline your mind into a good mood, then you're gonna blow in the actual game

You're taking me way too seriously.

Sounds like OP needs some Forrest Gump style directional signs.

No, dude a goal is not a goal and especially not in football... Those nets are at the opposite sides of the field so an own goal is always an accident. It's one of the most embarrassing things a defender can do because at that side of the field he's trying to move the ball not score it!

Oh. Whops! Can I blame this on too much blood in my caffeine?

No you can't blame caffeine Jemm, please just fu-coffee!

#8, a basket is worth two points, so your basket was not the difference between a loss and a tie, it was the difference between a loss and a win. Hope that helps!

hmmm considering both yours and op's stories confusion is a side effect of stupidity.

I don't blame you. In a high paced game, it's easy to lose a sense of direction, especially when you go back and forth.

Yes.... But OP could have looked at the goal keepers and realized the one OP shot on was his teammate.

And in reality it is not a real sport... Soccer is a game we let children play till they can play a real sport like football.

Last I checked football was pretty much rugby with helmets. You learn to play a real sport.

#31, People like you that think that football is the only sport in the world are so annoying, I've played both soccer and football and I can say, that while football may be a more aggressive sport, soccer is way more exhausting

#31, people like you.. you run around and get tackled but you still have all that equipment on while in soccer you get knocked down and kicked quite a bit and you don't wear half the protection soo.. boom.

#31 Soccer's not a real sport? So where's YOUR World Cup?

#31. if you want to try a real sport try shinty. It's like hockey but without the protective gear. Only the hockey sticks and the ball. Oh... and the ball is in the air, not on the ground. So people get hit with the sticks all the time.

9, OP is just bad. Leave it at that.

Yes... The spider set his trap in #31 and caught many little flys. However, I still cannot figure out how a soccer player by being looked at can flop around on the ground more than the guys in the WWF. Wimps or just a child's game? You decide...

Don't lie op, your a secret agent planted by the other team. I see through your lies.

Even the best players in the world score own goals, look at Gerard piqué in the semi finals of the champions league! Just pick your head up mate
