My football career is looking glaring

So today been the 8th of April, I went out today after staying at home for almost 3 weeks since Asuu has compulsory a stay at home lockdown for the students based on the strike. The secondary school I graduated from hosted a football competition for their student and a space for the alumni to come to play also was created. The alumni were asked to play against the teachers which I was part of the alumni too.

At first, when I passed the information to the alumni group chat, no one turned up and so I decided to tell my set that we both graduated together to pick each other and play against the teachers. They all turned up and we picked ourselves and agreed to play but unfortunately, I received a call from a brother yesterday that how many of my guys are playing with the teachers, I am like but I sent a message and no one turned up about it. So he said some of his friends are coming and they will also like to play and I said no problem. I sent him the names of those playing including my name too.

To my surprise when I got to school today, I met several people from different sets that want to play too cos they are also part of the alumni. Those who graduated last year are also claiming alumni and they also want to play😅😅😅 and nothing can be done about it. So I met the senior ahead of me and we make arrangements on how we can shuffle everyone into playing. So some agreed to play the first half and some agreed to play the second half and that's why we settled it. We have to chance those that just graduated last year cos they are not yet strong to face the teachers.

So I agreed to play the second half even though I was part of those that choose the team. We started the match late despite telling us that we will start very early in the morning. My guys were all angry at me and the organisers because it was very late before we start. The organisers told me 10 am but I told my guys 8 am cos I know they will want to practice African time. 8 am became 10 am and before we knew it, 10 am becomes 1 pm but at last, we started the match.

The match started around 1 pm and we were lucky to see a beautiful chance but we lost it. Before we know it, they played the ball in the hand of one of my teammates inside the box and a penalty was awarded to them. They played it and scored, so the teachers lead with a 1 goal lead till the end of the first half. So the second half started with the same set of people but after 5 minutes, they were all removed and another set of people entered which I was part of them. We entered and played for like another 5 minutes and our player was fouled in the penalty area and a penalty was awarded for us too, one of the junior sets to my set played it and scored. That was how we equalized the goal with the teachers and everything was back to square one.

We played draw till full time and we were asked to play penalty shoot out, we started by scoring and they also scored too. We played another one and scored but the teachers lost theirs, our keeper catches it. Our keeper catches 3 of their ball out of 5, while we lost 2 balls to their keeper. I was the one appointed the last ball to play as per captain 😅😅😅, I took the and positioned it very well before you knew it, it has entered the back net and that's how I scored the winning goal. If I had missed the ball, we would have continued playing but it wasn't like that. My teammates run toward where I was and carried me and I was feeling like a superstar.

We the alumni won and our teachers were put to shame 😅😅😅, we were dancing all around them and mocking them for their loss. It was all fun though. They gave us our medals and that was how today went. My football career is now looking glaring now cos I have once written an article about starting a career in football and I think is never too late now 😅, here is the link if you want to read about it. The article will tell you how I receive the calling 😅😅, I know many will laugh at me but I will not reply to them, they will only beef superstar like me.

This is how I spent my day and I am glad I was able to share with you all.

Thanks for reading 🥰🥰🥰.
