I play local Saturday and Sunday league often, always played goalie or defender and would describe myself as solid, maybe slightly better than average, but nothing special.
Anyway a few weeks ago, we were chasing a Sunday league game, everyone pushed up for a last minute corner and I stayed back on my own, ball come flying back out and I took a touch about 40 yards out slightly to the right of pitch, the day before kyle walker scored a cracker against Newcastle from a similar (slightly closer position) It was fresh in my head and I replicated the technique and hit the ball like I never have before or new I had the ability to,

similar to his this cut across it but mine went top bins and just as fast, keeper was planted to the floor.
It is really funny, because it was a nothing sunday league game, and i played it cool at the time took a bit of praise for a hour or two after the game, but I couldn't stop smiling to myself for 3 days after.
and even now when i think of it i get goosebumps, it is so funny, because i realise it is not that an impressive thing and people do it every weekend all over the country, but I had a buzz that just can not be articulated, I imagine it is the closest thing to a drug you can get.
The morale for me was if that could make me fell that way, the realisation of how fantastic it must be to score a goal as a pro footballer, with thousands of fans cheering it must be something else.
