Whack to the face for Charlie this weekend 🫣 and here’s a poem to go with it 📖

“The Keeper’s Courage” 🧤⚽️

I stood my ground between the posts,

My heart was brave, my hands were ghosts.

The ball came fast — I didn’t blink,

Just one hard thud — no time to think.

It smacked my face, a mighty whack,

The crowd went quiet, echoing back.

My eyes welled up, I fought the tears,

The sting rang loud between my ears.

But goalkeepers aren’t made to fall,

We stand up proud, we save it all.

A little pain, a little red,

Won’t stop the fire inside my head.

So next time that ball comes my way,

I’ll dive again — come what may.

For bruises fade, but courage stays,

And heroes rise on matchday days.
