Today, I finally scored a goal in a soccer game. Too bad it was in our own net. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I had a soccer game. A player from the other team hit me in the face. In the next half, she was the goalie and I was determined to score on her. When I finally got my chance to, everyone cheered, until I kicked the ball into the goal post and it bounced back and hit me in the face. FML
Today, during a soccer game, some utter moron got the bright idea of trying to score a goal from his side of the field. I sarcastically made a big show of just barely stopping the ball, and nailed it off to the side. The ball hit a kid so hard in the head that he had to go to the hospital. FML
Today, I was practicing soccer at my school. My team was practicing penalty kicks. It was my turn up and this cute girl that I like was watching off ten feet away from the goal. I was running to take the kick when I slipped and kicked the ball. It hit her head and now she won't talk to me. FML
Today, I was playing one on one soccer with a girl like. I accidentally kicked the ball right into her face. The ball rolled back towards me and as I was running to see if she was ok, I kicked the ball… right into her face again. FML
Today, I got kicked in the face at a soccer game. Everybody clapped. FML
Today, at a soccer game held by my girlfriend's family, some idiot went to kick the ball, missed by a mile, and hit the ground hard. So I started a slow, sarcastic clap. I got a load of angry looks, followed by verbal abuse when we found out he'd split his head open on the ground. FML
Today, I went to my son's school soccer game. Unfortunately, I couldn't get excited about it because my idiot son kept diving the moment anyone so much as breathed on him. It eventually earned him a penalty shot that won him the game. I was so ashamed, I snuck out to avoid being seen with him. FML
Today, I was having a really vivid dream in which I had to take a penalty kick to win the World Cup for the USA. I took the kick, but in reality, I smashed my foot against my bedroom wall and broke four of my toes. I also missed the kick in my dream. FML
Today, I was kicking my soccer ball with my father. My mom pulled out in the car without checking and ran into to me. FML
Today, a soccer ball hit my car while I was going 75 mph on the freeway during my drive home. I still don't know how to explain it. FML

When I made my first basket it was in the other teams basket. I was so embarrassed I cried. The refs gave them a point for it. That was the one point they beat us by...

Heads up OP. A goal is a goal! While you sit on the bench for the next few games you can see how it should be done. Just tell your coach you were trying to confuse the other team by working your way from the back up. Good luck.

Someone tell me why this is even on FML in the first place? But yeah, other people have made the same mistake.

Don't worry, man! We all make mistakes. By the way, I used to play soccer some years ago, and I was a defender. I scored some own goals (I was not a good player). And there was a famous player from Palmeiras (a big soccer team from Brazil), he was called Oséas. He scored an own goal against Corinthians, Palmeiras' biggest rivals. But he redeemed himself later, scoring goals in two very important championship finals (1998 Brazilian Cup snd 1999 Libertadores Cup). I'm pretty sure you'll do like him and score many importsnt goals. Good luck, OP :-)

Yep YDI for calling the sport soccer, its only the universe rebalancing itself.

Actually it was the British who invented the word soccer and the sport was called soccer for about 20 years before middle and lower class British began to call it football. So actually soccer is just a more sophisticated and classy way of saying it.

In fact the sport was called "association football" that was shortened and nicknamed to "soccer" so soccer is university slang. And as "soccer" was mainly used by the aristocracy, i would say snobbish instead of classy.

Also the British invented baseball a full 35 years before it was even introduced to America. The only place in the world where football is called soccer is the Americas and maybe heavily influenced countries like Australia, but seriously the rest of the world uses football, left hand drive and the metric system...

#39. Actually it is only England, Ireland, and Scotland that drive in the left hand side. The rest of the world drives in the right. And so what if North America calls football "soccer". In North America there is American football, so to have two different sports called the same thing would be confusing. Therefore we call it soccer and football.

Or Thailand...

#39 Australia call it soccer because they have their own type of football which they call Aussie Rules, it's not because they're 'influenced'. It's different from American football.

Let me explain the names to you, in England (and pretty much most of the damn world) Football = Soccer, Rugby = 'American Football' and I'm pretty sure Aussie rules are the same everywhere and that includes football and rugby -.-

No 57 let me explain it to you: Aussie rules is a totally separate sport, which is what they refer to as football, and that's why they call association football soccer. I was not suggesting that Australians play football and rugby but with a different set of rules, we play them at rugby all the time and have a few players from their 'soccer' leagues play in our premier league and vice versa. And rugby is a completely different sport than American football with different rules, please google them all if you don't want to take my word for it!

Only thing similar between rugby and American football is that the ball looks slightly similar and there us a big goal post that looks a little similar. It's like saying cricket and baseball are the same sport.

Whatever you do OP, do not think of Andrés Escobar, the Colombian player who got murdered after scoring an own goal at the '94 World Cup.

Pele called and said you're off the team. Sorry OP!

Aw keep trying..not sure how you managed that but..yeah I don't know

Well, OP, one way to look at it is that your soccer career can't get any worse!! Seriously, pay better attention next time and score in the goal you're supposed to- you'll feel better about yourself and your team will hate you less!!

I remember a shot hit the cross bar bounced off my head, and right into our net. Probably one of the worst feelings you can have. Sometimes you can't help it.

Keep on trying, I'm sure you'll get better!

You should defect to the other team and play like you scored the goal on purpose as a double-agent. Change your incompetence into intrigue.
