When I was young, I enjoyed playing football very much and usually, my position was striker, because I like the feeling to attain scores. However, as I grew up and was higher and higher, I gave up playing it and turned to playing basketball.
Last Friday, fortunately, my friends invited me to join them in a friendly football match towards local students. But this time, my job was to defend. In fact, I seldom defend, but I would do my best. During the match, although I tried my best, rivals still gained three scores, which made me feel frustrated at that time.
After the match, I came up with some reflections from football. One is that I realised that being a defender is as difficult as being a striker and, defenders are very important for a team. Before the match, I, like most of others, always appreciated the stikers more and paid little attention on defenders. We prefered to give a lot of applause and complishments to strikers when they gain scores, but always forgot that defenders also have their own contributions. So this experience made me understand more about defenders and their functions. And next time, I will be happy to be a defender.
In my opinion,defenders and the goalkeeper are some people like backroom boys.No wonder they get less honor than the strikers,but they are definitely important positions.I'm sure you can be a good defender afterwards.
