My "debut" in the Premier League

UK the country where they give you at least one opportunity...even the chance to play a football game in a Premier League Stadium, concretely at Selhurst Park which is the current home ground of Crystal Palace Football Club.

---

Selhurst Park is an historic Premier League stadium, officially inaugurated by the Lord Mayor of London on 30 August 1924, although unfinished due to industrial action. In 1953, Real Madrid played their first ever game in London when Palace stil played in the 3rd Division.

Cristiano Ronaldo, Wayne Rooney or Gareth Bale....these are just some of the names who have played at Selhurst Park. So for those ones who passionate about football, the chance of playing there it´s just priceless.

The day you play there is a day which you will hardly ever forget. I have watched loads of Premier Leagues games while living in Spain, it was something I enjoyed a lot: the atmosphere, the crowd, the competitiveness...even the tackles!

Let´s start the game...it was a kind of sunny evening of May, and our team, Valour, based in Kent, faced a selection of ex Valour players. This match was an end of the season "gift". Season, which could have ended up with our first trophy, although unfortunately, we lost our second ever Cup final.

The score wasn't the main focus, though we certainly aimed to demonstrate the current Valour players' abilities. The match kicked off with both teams playing at a very competitive and fast pace for the initial 20 minutes. Then, the legends took the lead with two impressive goals, followed by a third. Despite having a lot of possession, we couldn't break through their strong defense, and with 25 minutes remaining, we started to worry about the outcome of this "friendly" match. However, we managed to score 4 goals in the final minutes, resulting in a 4-3 victory.

Overall, a draw would have been a fair result, but we're pleased with our strong comeback. It was a fantastic evening, and the score accurately reflects a very competitive and close game.
