Another Soccer Seed Is Sown

At the death of the calamitous Chelsea v Barcelona match last week, a perceptive cameraman from the ESPN network captured a young boy, about twelve years old, sobbing uncontrollably as Chelsea watched their imminent victory disappear into a deep fjord of last minute loss.  It was a footballing death moment for the child. Soccer had planted another seed that would forever grow. Victory blows away in the wind but loss puts down roots.
