Soccer Game ~by Jonathan

Soccer is amazing because it is my favorite sport.

Getting ready for the game is exciting. As I am running onto the field, the people are screaming, "Come on! Do not give up!!" When the game began, we stared at the ball, and the people start cheering.

At half-time, we were losing by one goal. The crowd was sad and losing interest. I said to my other teammate, "Pass it to me so I can make a goal." They agree.

As I am running down the field, Danny kicked it to me. I hit it with my head. The ball flew through the air, toward the goal. Everybody stood up. The ball continued toward the goal. It went past the goalie. I made the goal! I made it! All the people on the sidelines screamed, "Goal!!!!!!!!!!!!" My coach give me a big pat on the back, and all my teammates were happy.

Unfortunately, the other team made a goal. My coach said, "Come on! You can do it! One more goal!!" The score was 2-1, and there were just 15 minutes left.

We threw the balled in and I passed it to my friend. He missed and I said to him, "Nice try." When he got the ball back, he passed it to me. I did a back kick and the goalie did not stop the ball - again.

The crowd charged in. Danny, Juan, and I were the best on our team! We felt proud.

Danny, Juan, and I have practiced so much together that we play well together. Practice really does pay off. It allowed us to score many goals during games because we knew what the other person would do. We trusted each other!

My team was cheering and my coach said, "Great job, guys!" He promised that if we won, he would throw a party! My team lifted me up on their shoulders, and Juan said, "Nice job, Jonathan!" Soccer is amazing. It is my favorite sport!

  31. I'm proud of you for getting your story finished and published. It helps to write about something you know a lot about, huh?! You did a great job presenting today. I love the repeating line - it's almost like a poem! Keep playing soccer...and keep writing, too!
