Late in the Indoor Soccer playoffs, our team had a player sent off because of a red card in the first few minutes of the game. That meant we had to play a man down the whole game. Though we were losing at halftime, we managed to come back to win the game and then go on to win the championship, which was the first intramural championship for my entire team.
