The winning goal was up to me,
But I was so nervous,
It was hard to see.
I dodged my opponents with no effort,
none at all,
But that's when I tripped,
Ready to fall.

Another girl fell and hit me in the head.
It's a free shot, Free shot!
The referee said.
"Here's the ball, honey, go right ahead."
I waited for the whistle and unleashed my power,

And for a second I saw the goalie cower.
She missed it,
She missed it!
It zoomed past her in a flash,
I was so tired.
I was ready to crash.

My whole team froze in shock and I did the same,
As the ref blew the whistle,
Ending the game.
*** we did it!
Don't you see?

We just beat the very best team!
From losers of 09 to the champs of 010,
If you don't think we're awesome,
Where have you been.
