The 8th match

The last three matches, we lost 1-2. A few pix on FB.

We opted to serve after the warm up. Michael started.

4-4 … then time’s up. A timed match.

At the last game point we had the advantage (the girl was serving). Michael hit a deep shot to the baseline that forced her to react. It’s a pop up
above the net. It didn’t look that it would cross the net. I yelled out ‘bounce’ because Michael has charged the net – at the net. The next thing I knew was our opponents said Mike has crossed the net so it’s their point. I was a little surprised but what they said surprised me even more as Michael was explaining to them that he did not strike the ball:
“Let’s not let this to ruin this match .. This match has been a good one .. ”
Did they jump to pacify us too quickly?
