Useless (2)

Link-Up-Play

Short chapter today due to me being busy, hope you all enjoy anyways

20 people on the pitch, brisk winds hitting against their face, with adrenaline flowing through their veins, Team 3 gets kick-off, all ready to kick-off for the match.

The high pitched airy whistle blows for kick off, match begins starting off with Michael... the main playmaker of Team 3, gets the game started by passing the ball to one of the attackers that's having a hard time controlling the ball...

''That was a great pass, how is he having a hard time controlling it?'' Michael questioned in his head ''He's fucking my play up''

One of Team 1 defenders easily regains control of the ball after the attacker from Team 3 struggles to control Michael's pass. The defender didn't know who to pass to at first, saw Joe coming back for the pass.

''Pass it to me I'm open'' Joe demanded the defender

The defender eventually passed to Joe after walking a couple steps to find his feet first... ball was passed with terrible accuracy it almost didn't reach Joe at first, but he ran for the ball with electrifying speed.

''What on earth was that pass'' Joe mused ''My grandpa can do better and he's got arthritis in both his legs''

With a pass that nearly went out for a throwing, it was a total miracle how Joe even manage to get to that. Joe wondering who's open he saw Ruben with a glimpse from his right eye running down the wing.

''Fuck I got no other options, gonna swing this one to Ruben''

Quick without hesitation passing it straight down in the direction of Ruben, pass was going north east with wind blowing the ball more towards north...

But...

John coming out of nowhere, jumping gracefully around 30 inches in the air... heading it away from Ruben... going straight down to Michael.

''The attack is so shit, I'm just gonna go on my own''

Having obviously no lucky with the forwards... Michael decided to go forwards on his own using his technical skills... manoeuvring around that defence of Team 1... making the defence looking like a circus.

With the goalkeeper being the clown of the show, coming out of the box to try to stop Michael... With the goalkeeper obviously off his line, Michael chip shots with smooth precision flicking the ball off the ground with the shot curving slightly to the left.

Over the keepers head, the defence was all over the place still trying to figure out where Michael actually is. Couldn't stop the ball from bouncing straight into the bottom left corner...

Thump... Thump... thump, thump

Michael celebrated with a jumping fist pump and went straight back to his position of central attacking midfielder

1-0 to Team 3

With Team 1 devastated from not being able to stop that from happening... they start kick-off again, but without any success the same things kept on happening...

Joe trying his best to pass to Ruben and it just kept getting intercepted by John or Dean which they passed it to Michael to make it...

2-0

3-0

Team 3 were three goals up already...

Nothing was working out for Joe today, his passes just wasn't going through to Ruben for some reason the passes kept on getting intercepted by Dean and John... that rock solid defence was no joke.

''Why are my passes not getting through?''

''Are my passes bad?''

''It's fine we can get a goal back'' Ruben spoke with a slight lack of confidence

''It's all my fault'' Joe was stressing out in his head

''Why am I not good enough?''

''Maybe I'm just''

''Useless''
