We lost 1-0 today against a team we should have defeated but our midfield and attack was too weak to get many chances at goal. Every time we tried to move forward with the ball, our players would try to show off their skill instead of playing simple which is why we found it hard to score. Our defence was the strongest aspect of the team today since we had the most to do.
I played three different roles today; right defence, sweeper and centre midfielder. The reason for all this change was because I told our coach that I wanted to play a more offensive role so I started of being at the side of the defence since that would give me an opportunity to push up now and then. Near the end of the match I switched with one of my team mates to play in midfield since that is a position I really want to try to play in. Tomorrow, I was told I would start midfield and my goal is to find space by looking around myself more often since today I made it hard for my team mates to make a pass to me since my positioning was off. My passing and running was good but it was the positioning that ruined it. As a defender, I was very communicative especially when my brother was at centre defence with me. I told him where to be and what to do so that the opponents couldn't move towards goal. I gave him tips out of my experience so that he would learn something new which could come in handy for him. This helped me become a better communicator and more caring in a sense which is part of the IB learner profile.
My aim for tomorrow is to have at least one shot at goal or assist two people in having a shot on target since that would help me adapt to my new part-time position. I should put my head up more often since most of the time I am not aware of my surroundings. I will try to give tips to my team mates and not just my brother so that we can all improve as a team and win more games.
