The clock is running down. I need someone to take the ball and win this game for me. The question remains, who should I…

All soccer fans are about the same. At one point in our lives, we all wish we were representing the colors of our nation, dating supermodels, and playing for the elite in Europe or in today’s game, $hina. We all know the stars, the history, and the records. We love to be part of the game because soccer is as much as about the passion of the fans as it is the movement on the pitch.

teams, you could feel the pressure in the air. I felt like my heart was getting out of my chest as we scored each point. After 40 minutes of breathtaking match, "EIS" had won 1 set and us 2; the fourth set was going to decide each team destiny.
