Soccer, My love

I have enjoyed soccer ever since I was very young. I remember when I was four or five, my dad’s friend, Uncle Shen took me to a soccer field. From that day on, I love soccer . Now, I play soccer every Saturday afternoon.

One fine day, my friends Jing-Jing, a group of adults and I all went to play soccer. Jing-Jing, his dad, some other adults and I were in one team. After approximately one hour, our team had already scored four goals. By this time, I saw an uncle heading for the opponent’s net with the ball. I quickly ran beside the net, and he immediately passed the ball to me. The goal keeper didn’t have enough time to respond before I got the ball. I scored a goal! Soon after that, I played offense, I was near the net. I ran towards the opponent, stole the ball, turned and scored again! Later on I scored two more consecutive goals. That day I scored a total of four goals, setting a new record. Everyone was very happy, complimenting me for kicking the ball bravely and beautifully!

Soccer is a very interesting sport. It not only exercises your body, but your mind as well. I will continue to play soccer, and body will become stronger.
