"Mars wanted to play short passes, but could not, so we took advantage of us," he said.

Bundel scored the goal with the first game ended in 1-1 draw. "It was a free throw. I remember that was barely hit the mark, but I gave it my all and I think your goalie is still looking for where the ball went," he said.

Famous quotes containing the words golden and/or paid:

    Life has no other discipline to impose, if we would but realize it, than to accept life unquestioningly. Everything we shut our eyes to, everything we run away from, everything we deny, denigrate or despise, serves to defeat us in the end. What seems nasty, painful, evil, can become a source of beauty, joy and strength, if faced with an open mind. Every moment is a golden one for him who has the vision to recognize it as such.
    Henry Miller (1891–1980)

    Instead of calling on some scholar, I paid many a visit to particular trees, of kinds which are rare in this neighborhood, standing far away in the middle of some pasture, or in the depths of a wood or swamp, or on a hilltop.... These were the shrines I visited both summer and winter.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
