Dead Trousers 3 - Torpedo Entenhausen 4

Being a supporter of Torpedo Entenhausen is a dangerous business. If the number of fit players drops below 10, anyone with two legs is press-ganged into playing. If the number drops below 8, even the cripples are called into service. So when Axel left to put the kids to bed, having scored the first two goals to leave the match finely poised at 2-2, Horsti was called out of retirement for a match-winning cameo. The decisive moment came as he beat one man, found space to shoot and drew the keeper into a parry. Following up, I scored my customary rebound to give Entenhausen the decisive 4-2 lead.
