II TOPIC: Write about a sporting event you saw recently.
Last Sunday at our school football field, a friendly football match was held Our school Female Students’ Football Team played against the neighboring school’s one.
It was a really nice Sunday morning then The football field where the match took place was previously well-decorated Red flags could be seen along the roads from our school gate passing the school play-ground
to the gym then to the football ground, together with numerous slogans, posters, and of course pictures of the two teams and individual players Then came the most important moment of the day when the two teams entered the field from the changing rooms, following the two headmasters of the two schools, and the referees Spectators all burst into applauses to welcome the players As soon as the game began, spectators started cheering and shouting for one side or the other Others sang and danced, some even called out the players’ names with love and pride The crowd kept discussing and commentating happily On the first half, our team played much better to score two goal to lead the guest The football field seemed to be filled with applauses and bravos when the first and then the second goal were scored by the two different home strikers The players of the two teams played so well that it made spectators forget the time as the referee blew his whistle to finish the first half When the second half came the guest players played much better and scored a goal The players still played enthusiastically but no more goal was scored The match ended with the winning score of 2-1 for the home team.
It was a very happy weekend day for us all and it was, in my opinion, the best game I have ever watched We all agreed that such sporting event brought us closer together, made us feel relaxed and we very much felt confident and proud of our school
