The Championship

There I was ready to play on the field for the championship game. The referee blew the whistle and the soccer ball was kicked in my direction. The game got off to a good start by my team dominating

on the opponents half of the field. By the time it was half we had scored bringing the score to 1-0.
Half-time was over and every player was sweating like crazy from the sun. We started the second half and we were doing great until the last few minutes of the game. The ball got down to our half of the field and one of our defenders kicked it out and gave the other team a corner kick. Everyone was yelling at people telling them where to go and who to mark. It was just carouse. The ball was kicked over my head and next thing I know I see the ball kicked into the high, left corner side in the goal. They had shot. They scored. It was tied. We had to get another point in order to win the tournament or we would go into over time. I heard the referees watch start beeping I knew that meant the game was over. So we went into over time and no one had scored after ten minutes, so we had to go into penalty kicks. Both my team and the other team made their first shot. We went through 5 people and in the end they had made four penalty shots and we had made three.
Everyone was sad that we had lost the championship game. Some of the players were crying thinking that it was all there fault, thinking “Maybe if I would have took that shot, or maybe if I were marking her.” Now we know to practice penalty kicks before a tournament just in case this situation comes again we can be the team that wins!
