First loss · Total Goalkeeping

First loss

Played 2 games this weekend, an over 40s on Friday (much faster pace,which i really enjoyed. Good win) ,and over 50s this afternoon. This afternoon i picked up my first loss (0-1 to top of the league side), but still had a good game and enjoyed it. It's really strange because with it being over 50s vets football, i didnt think the loss would bother me , but I was totally wrong. It bothered me as much as it would've when I was playing regularly at a high standard, I guess the competitiveness never goes away? Found myself going through the same thoughts and routines as I used to, which is a good thing, so the fact it bothered me said a lot to me, it meant I still wanted it enough. Onwards and upwards, really enjoying playing again.
