Song of the Week

May 22nd seems so long ago. The fondest memory I have from the game is watching the crowd absolutely explode after the second goal, knowing that victory was all but sealed up. These are the moments you notice when you are unable to go to the games, and are forced to watched in soccer fan’s purgatory – a place where you have all the emotions that the fans at the game do, but no-one to share them with. That goal, which proved to be the winner, gave a huge boost of optimism to the team and their fanbase. At 1-6-1 before that match, a draw was looking like a moral victory, let alone getting all three points.

Fast forward to the 31st. Though we didn’t have both goalscorers from the previous game, a hint of cautious optimism began to creep in. Sure, we still couldn’t not expect all three points on the road, but we believed that a draw was definitely manageable. We were proven wrong in the highest order, via the play of Findley and Morales.

And now, here we are. Back where we started, in the same place we were at before the Houston match. But we pulled out a victory when no one gave us a chance then, and there’s no reason for it to not happen again. So let’s stay positive, shall we? And with that, this week’s Song of the Week:

Junior Senior – Happy Rap
