Soccer
Yesterday was my first soccer game this year. At the start of the game, my friend Nick predicted that the other team would score within a minute of halftime, and that we would score two goals afterwards to win the game.
Our team got an early advantage at the start of the game, pushing the opposing team back. We had several opportunities for shots, but none of them made the cut. They were either too high, too low, too wide, or too short. As the game dragged on, we were all disappointed that we had yet to make one single goal.
When halftime came, the score was still tied 0 - 0. Everyone was getting frustrated, angry at why we hadn't scored yet. And then, disaster struck. The opposing team had scored! The mood on the benches turned gloomy and dark. For the next 25 minutes, neither team would score. With 3 minutes left in the game, it looked like the team that had been undefeated for two years would lose their first game in the season. However, the game was not over yet. With 2 minutes to spare, we scored a goal with a magnificent header. And then, to finish off the game, we scored a second goal right before the whistle blew.
The game this Sunday was definitely a very intense game, and I look forward to the next games!
