Before the match had even started, the tension between the two teams was already palpable, mainly because the other side was too good at putting on a show. After all, they were all spirited young men. Who would back down from a challenge?
The Yunhai Group players were dressed in white jerseys, while their opponents wore blue. Once the midfield kickoff took place, the blue team skillfully passed the ball around, quickly moving it away before any defenders could approach.
Soon, the soccer ball reached near the penalty area, and a forward from the opposing team lifted his leg and unleashed a fierce shot. The ball flew out like a cannonball. Ma Bian, the goalkeeper, dived to save it but was a split second too slow and missed the ball by a whisker.
The ball struck the net!
After scoring, a player from the blue team arrogantly said, "How about that? Do you bunch of rookies admit defeat?"
"No," someone replied defiantly.
"Hmph, just wait, we'll thrash you next."
