Our team played excellent soccer; the -82- were accurate and our players displayed such -83- that the spectators were not surprised when, by the end of the -84- they had scored three goals to nil. In the second half, one of our players was shown a -85- for a rough -86-. Although our opponents were awarded a -87-, our -88- was so smart that he did not concede a goal.
