Win called his coach while Joss was still speeding to get to the stadium.

"I'm almost there"

"Yeah that's good. Your friend is doing a pretty good job here"

"What do you mean?"

"Oh you'll know", the coach said and ended the call.

"I'm sure Off is doing something dumb", Bright said as he had heard the call.

"Okay! We are here. Go go go! And GOODLUCK. I'll see you two at dinner tonight", Joss said, stopping the car in front of the stadium.

"I gotta go. I'll see you guys after the match", Win said as he squeezed Bright's hand before running out of the car. Dew and Bright ran behind him, looking for their friends. They then saw someone dancing aggressively in the middle of the stadium. Someone was too familiar.

"That crazy ....", Bright mumbled to himself and chuckled as he saw what Off was doing. Win got to the coach who handed him his bag which had his jersey, shorts and boots. He changed quickly and got to the stands where the rest of the team were waiting for him.

"You forgot something", Nanon said as Win got to the front of the line.

"What?"

"Here", Nanon replied, pulling Win's arm to tie the Captain sleeve on him. "Let's win this Captain!"

The team did their group cheer and waited for the announcement to come on. The players walked to the ground and the people in the audience were cheering for their respective teams. When the handshake and side choosing was done, the players got to their positions.

"We can win this", Win shouted loud enough for his team to hear. He looked around the stands and saw Bright and Dew, watching him carefully. The referee blew the whistle and the game had begun. The first half was filled with intense action. The scores actually had gone up to 3-2, Win's team in the lead. But they had to maintain that for the rest of the game. They cannot afford to let them tie the match towards the end. The boys used all their power to keep at it and started playing defensive now till the half time whistle went off.

"They are so aggressive!", Chimon said, panting and collapsing on one of the chairs.

"Yeah. They are know for collecting red cards in most of their games. Don't let them injure any of you okay. Don't let your guard down", Win said, handing everyone their bottles of water. The half time break went by quickly and the players went back on the field. The second half seemed much worse, probably because everyone was getting tired now.

In the 74th minute, someone from the opposition team scored a goal which was a problem now. They didn't want the game to move on to penalties. They had to get one more goal before the 90th minute. The seniors of the team instantly got fired up and went all out. They all thought about the same thing, this was their final match for the school. They had to win this. It sure was hard, but all the practice sessions they had, it had to be worth it. But as Win mentioned earlier, one of the players skid across Saint's leg to make him fall and he hurt his knee and a loud gasp came from the audience's side. 'This can't be happening', Win thought to himself.

Win and Nanon ran towards Saint to help him up but he was in pain. His legs were wearing off much earlier but he didn't stop playing for the sake of the team and now it's just worse. The medical team had to get him out of the field with a stretcher. Win was now waiting for the referee's decision on whether their team gets a free kick or not. They have to.

The referee came on back to the field after discussing with the organisers who were observing the match and granted Win's team a free kick. They had only 15 minutes for the match. If they score this one, they will be in the lead again and then they can play defence for the rest of the match.

"Who is coming in for the free kick?", the referee asked.

"I am going", Win said and looked at his team mates to know if they had any objections which they didn't have. Win was the best at this but he was shaking now. Not because he was nervous. He was angry and tired. He had been running around all day and his team mate is injured because of a petty move. He cannot mess this up. A lot of people had gone out of their way for him to get here, right now. He looked at the audience side and saw Bright, smiling at him. He noticed that he was wearing another T-shirt now. It looked really familiar.

'Wait is that my jersey?', Win thought and on cue Bright nodded. As if he knew what Win was thinking. Win smiled brightly at the boy and now focused on the ball in front of him.

"This is for you", Win whispered to himself and charged towards the ball and kicked and the audience screamed to cheer for him.

"The score is now 4-3", the announcement stated. This was perfect. Win turned to his rival team and glared at them, still angry about what they had done to Saint. His team now played in defence and the time was going extremely slow. They were exhausted, they wanted to get it with.

3...2...1... and the final whistle went off and the boys collapsed together on the ground.

"We did it. We actually did it", Win managed to say, panting like crazy. The junior boys started tearing up as it was their first win. The coach ran towards the boys with bottles of water and tried to help them up. All their hard work paid off!

"Win you were on fire today man!", Off said as he went to the player's room with Luke and Dew.

"Thanks guys!", he replied and was looking around.

"Bright is on a call he'll be here soon", Luke said knowing what Win was looking for.

"Did you show him your jersey yet?", Pff asked.

"What's wrong with his jersey?", Luke asked.

"Look at the back", Dew told Luke and Win turned around to show them what was written.

'Bright'

"What cringe"

"Well of us wrote our crushes names on our jersey's", Saint told Luke.

"For real?", Luke exclaimed with disbelief and checked out all the other jerseys. "Y'all are so cheesy"
