This weekend, I played my first Microsoft Soccer League match. Before the official game we played two friendly games, :-) we lost the first game 6-2 and then lost 3-2 the second game! :-) We wear yellow jerseys, I’m hoping that I’ll be able to buy the Ismailia’s jersey when I’m visiting Egypt, I’m also hoping I’ll be able to buy Ahly’s red jersey and Egyptian’s national team red and white jersey! Anyone knows where to find these jerseys?
Anyway, we wear yellow jersey's, but really I'm the only one wearing Orange! I was very distinguished, the other team's goalie always used to shout at his D line to watch out from this orange guy!!
We started the first game in the league, I was a striker... I played most of the game, maybe more than 70 min of the game, during the game I changed positions from a striker to a right and then left mid-fielder.
During the game I've been told that I can control the ball pretty well, and I have some skills. The same comment was said about another mid-field player called Michael.
We were leading the first half 1-0 by a good shot by Ed, our team's striker... we started the second half, that's when they scored a goal by a follow up ball bounced from our goalie... We held our team back together; we scored our second goal from a very good shot by Scott, a defensive mid-fielder, maybe from more than 35 meters... We had another striker on the bench, He came into the game, and he took my position while I played as a right mid-fielder. We then scored the 3rd goal by the substitute striker. I then moved to be the left mid-fielder.
I got the ball, I took over two players, and then I changed the field by a crossing ball to the other side of the field to the left mid-fielder who was completely free, who passed it to a centre mid-field who was alone with the goal by then and scored our 4th goal. My team mates really encouraged me for the good field vision I had... Then one of the strikers got really tired, so he went out and a mid-fielder came into the game, he took over my position, while I played as a striker again.
I was in a very good position when Ian passed me the ball, my back was to the goal, I turned and shot, the ball hit the post, moved on the line and then went into the net! :-) I scored my first goal in the league, our fifth goal in the match. :-) Of course I had to score! We are only 10 players on the field, and we scored 5! I play in the forward line of the field, :-) which means that if each of us scored one, I had to be one of them; it really doesn’t mean that I have a talent or anything!
:-) It was a really nice game (since we won of course!). My next game is next Thursday, wish me luck! :-) And I’ll tell you about the next game, wish you guys can all come and watch it live ;-)

Congratulations for winning in your other post :-) and about the jerseys, you can find El-Ahly's and the national team's jersies at any Puma store. As for El-Ismaili's, I doubt you will find it in Egypt, but I think their brand is Adidas.
Off topic, I am wondering how could you be a fan of El-Ahly and El-Ismaili at the same time?!!!
Correction: the Ismaili jerseies are sold in Eg of course, what I meant was they are scarce in Cairo. But of course you will find them in Ismaileyya
@Ahmed - :-) Thx for the info, I'll look in Puma stores when I'm in Egypt next time n sha2 Allah... About your question, I'm Ahlawy! I just wanted the Ismaili's yellow jersey since my team here in the MSSL wears yellow, so at least when I'm going to wear yellow, I prefer to wear an Egyptain's team jersey, and of course Ismaili is a very good team too ;-)
