This week we pay homage to amateur youth football, showcasing a gem by Farai Mutatu, a Zimbabwean player of TNT Dynamite Soccer U13 Boys Red team of Lansing, Michigan. In the 29th minute of the first game of the season against team SCOR, Farai scored the game winning goal by bicycle kicking a deflected ball into the opponent net. A feat of readiness and great coordination. The final score of the match, played on April 16, was 3-2.

When I watch Farai play football it brings joy to my heart. His love of the game oozes at every practice and every game. Humble, respectful, full of ideas and so focused for his age. I have had the great pleasure of playing with his older brother and father, as well as watching his “little” sister defend and attack with equal force on my daughter’s team. Oh, and by the way, Farai’s mom also has some serious football skills! Amazing family.
