The game was 250 over and we were one point behind. Our coach called us together and said, “Okay, this is it! Either we score now or the game is over. Let’s work hard to score. Even if we don’t score, 251 we know that we have tried our best. So, boys, don’t think too much. It doesn’t matter if we lose. Just do it.”
Well, in the last 252 of the game, we truly scored and two teams tied (打成平局)! We went into overtime (加时) and we lost in the end. But after the game, the coach hugged all of us. He told us that he was 253 because he had never seen a team try harder than us.
To be honest, I 254 a lot of pleasure in playing sports. It makes me happy and comfortable. That’s why I play sports whenever I get the chance. So my 255 is to choose a sport and keep doing it. Your body will thank you and your mind will be ready to work well.
