BODY
Recently, I got an opportunity to witness a football game
that was played between Khalsa Higher Secondary School, Noida and DAV Higher
Secondary School, Delhi. The match was played on the playgrounds of SN College.
The entire ground was swept and then decorated. Both the teams were in high
spirits. They were dressed smartly and neatly. Both seemed to be equally
strong. The spectators were expecting a well-contested game. The ground and its
surroundings were jampacked by the public. The match started at 5 PM sharp.
The DAV team won the toss and chose the favourable side.
Soon, the referee blew the whistle and the match started.
During the first few minutes, the DAV team dominated the game. They penetrated
into the defences of their rival team but could not score any goal. Anyhow,
their splendid performance puzzled the Khalsa Higher Secondary School team and
the latter resorted to rough game, i.e. kicking ball at random. But the captain
did not lose heart and encouraged his team. So, the team was re-invigorated.
The Khalsa team soon recovered their lost position and in the heat of the
moment they scored a goal. The team was lustily cheered by their supporters.
But at the same time, the right-half of the DAV team was badly injured and the
captain had to bear the brunt throughout the entire game. Soon, the referee
blew a long whistle and first half was declared to be over. The players now
were supposed to take rest and plan their moves. There was a loud noise in the
playground as the supporters of both the teams rushed to their respective sides
in order to cheer the team and encourage it.

Again, the referee whistled and the match restarted. Now,
the DAV team gird up its loins and played with caution. The goalkeeper of DAV
team also became alert. In the first few moments, the Khalsa team put pressure
on the DAV team; their left half made three hits one after, another in the goal
of DAV but the goalkeeper of DAV team showed his extraordinary skill by kicking
the ball back. Then, in the heat of the game, the DAV side took the ball to the
rival side and within no time, their left half gave a pass to the right half
and the right-half kicked the ball straight into the goal. Thus, a goal was
scored. Now, it was a drawn game, which delighted DAV team also and served to
boost its morale. There were loud cheers from their supporters.
CONCLUSION
Now, the game was passing through a critical stage. Each
side trying its best to score a goal but when the time was over the exciting
final was synchronize with the scoring of a goal by Khalsa team over DAV team.
This was a surprising of goals by both the teams. It was really an exciting
match and the spectators appeared to
have enjoyed it very much.
