Answer the questions
Last Wednesday, our soccer team had a problem. It was cold. In fact, it was snowing. It was also the day
that the team had to play in the championship game. The ball was as hard as a rock. It hurt to kick, trap, or catch.
The field was solid white and the ball was easy to lose. Plus, it was too cold for shorts. All the players had to
wear long pants that made it difficult to run. Somehow both teams managed to play for the whole game.
The game itself was very close. Neither team was better. Both teams played well. They passed the ball,
made tackles, and ran until they were dead tired, but nobody could score a goal. The game ended with the score
still being zero to zero. Then overtime came and went without a goal. It was snowing harder and harder. We
could barely see the field. The players were still trying as hard as they could, but then the whistle blew. Overtime
was over. It was time for penalty kicks.Both teams made their first four penalty shots. Somehow the other team’s goalie saved our fifth try. Then
their best player stepped up to take their last kick. He ran up to the ball, gave it a very soft kick, and slipped.
The ball rolled slowly forward. We all started to cheer but then we saw that our goalie had already dived to save
it. The ball rolled slowly over the goal line and our team lost.
