Henry Cissel

In a long ago, far away land in a place called Unicorn United, a boy named Billy lived. He loved soccer so much that if you would ask him how much he loved soccer 1-10 he would say a million.Billy's nickname was mini Messi because of how good he was. That's how much he loved the best sport ever. In 3 weeks his school the Unionville Unicorns, would play there rival school the Patton Penguins. It was the biggest rival there ever was in sports history. Billy played striker on the school team and he was number 23. But Billy's best fried Steve was the star goalie on the team and he was number 1 and his nickname was the brick wall. The team cheer was beat the Patton Penguins.But the Patton Penguins also had a good player his name was Michael and he was the best player in the league and he was number 18. So those were the details for the biggest rivalry in sports history. The very next day Billy's best friend Steve came over and they had a great time playing soccer in Billy's backyard. Steve and Billy always liked to have penalty shootouts in Billy's backyard. The score of our shootout was 4-4 If Billy made the shot then Steve would have to buy him a milkshake at Becky's Dinner.Becky dinner was for was famous for them everybody called them mighty milkshakes. When Billy took the shot he kicked the ball into the bottom left corner and Steve dove to the right and it bounced off the post and in. Then Billy went GOOOOAAAALLLLL!!! and did a double backflip and then slid onto his nee's. After Steve's immense and tumultuously celebration they walked into town and got milkshakes. When they walked in they saw David and Jack on there team sitting in a booth and going them. Once they all sat down they started talking soccer and David mentioned, "Did you see Messi's 360 bicycle kick goal last night?" they replied, "No." "Well you guys really missed it because it was so nasty that I fell down like a tree getting cut down in the wild." A week later the team was a practice doing a passing drill while Coach Joe warmed up Steve. After we finished the passing drill Coach Joe said that it was time to scrimmage and that got a big cheer from the team and the chear was so loud it sounded like a lions roar in the wild. Two minutes later Jack had the ball and gave Billy A perfect pass and Steve was on a break away and then Steve shot the ball into the bottom right corner but Steve dove the same way and made a great save. The only thing was that Steve hit the ball out so it was a corner. David took the ball and got it ready for a corner and then he sent the ball in and Steve jumped up and yelled KEEPER! and punched the ball away. But the only problem was that he jumped on Jack and flipped over him and landed on his ankle. Nobody noticed Steve laying on the ground grabbing his ankle. Finally the team noticed and ran over to see what happened and then Coach Joe called the Emergency room and his mom. That was the end of Practice for the day and the next day Billy went over to Steve's house to see how he was feeling. Steve told him that the doctor said he would be out for a month. Joe thought to himself on the walk back home wear would the find a new goalie? The next day Billy, Steve, and Jack were walking to school to play some soccer. Once they finally got there they saw a kid playing with his dad and his son was in goal. His dad shot the ball into the bottom left corner and it was sailing into the corner but the goalie got there in time. They all decided to watch for a couple more minutes and as they watched it made all feel that he was good enough to be the goalie for the team while Joe recovered. 2 minutes later they walked over to introduce themselves and the boy said his name was Rico and he just moved here from Brazil and there favorite news was that he would love to be on the team. So they next day they showed him to coach Joe and after seeing him warm up he agreed. The four of them jumped up in the air like people trying to block a free kick. One week later it was the the biggest game of the year for both teams. Billy was practically bouncing off the walls so much it looked like they were actually bouncing balls on the way to the game. (TO BE CONTINUED) Marking Period 2 10 minutes later they were out of the car and walking over to the field. Once they finally got to the field, Billy walked over to his team and his parent went to sit with Joe 's parent's to watch the game of the year. But you probubly would be wondering where Joe was sittinng, he would be sitting on the teams bench. Once Billy finally got over with his team it was time for warm ups. After warm up coach Joe gave the Team a pep talk and he said Come guys this is the game we have all waited for and see the other team over there they proububly want this as much as we do. He last thing he said was play fair, score first, and most importantly have the time of your lives out there. After that the team did there cheer beat the Patton Penguins. Their cheer was so loud it soundend like 10 bowling balls hitting the ground at the same exact time. ??? The Coach Joe said'' Wait wait and the words that came out of him mouth was everybody cover Michael because that's who they are gonna give the ball to. Then coach Joe sent the starters on to the field and the biggest rivalry ever began. Five minutes into the game a Patton Penquins named Justin gave Michael a great through ball and he placed it perfectally into the bottom corner. Michael came running down the field screaming so loud it sounded like a cannon went of there. So the Unicorns were down 1-0. Thirty seconds after the tap the Penquins were very close to scoring again but Rico made a very good save. 20 minutes later David gave Jack a great pass and then gave Billy a great long ball and Billy then shot the ball and his shot hit the crossbar then went in and it was a GOAL!!! The Billy was talkeld by his teamates so much you could not even see him. ???  Then is was the end of the first half.

At halftime the things Coach Joe said was  good playing guys but you guys need to do a better job getting back on defense. Also I do not want you guys making any stupid plays so they will get a goal But on the good side I think you have done a good play marking Michael except for that pretty trough ball. My final thing is that no matter what happens I have loved coaching you guys this season''. Now is was time for the second half and both teams second half starters took the field. The exciting moment was 5 minutes into the second half was when David tried to slide tackle the Penquins biggest defender named Trevor and missed the ball completly. Once they both got up David tried to aplogize but Trevor wanted no part and through David to ground like we was a football. The ref came running over and and gave David a yellow card for his bad slide tackle and Trevor got a red card for throwing David to the ground. ???  But by the look on Davids face you could have easilly seen his anger at Trevor for that cheep play. David also looked like he wanted to run Trevor over but Jack and Billy were holding him back. So for the rest of the game the Penquins would be playing a man down. Since a Penquin player was fouled, which ment they would get a free kick. Thirty seconds later Michael was getting ready to take the free kick. Then Michael ran up and kicked the ball it went perfectally over the Unicorns three man wall. There was only one problem with the kick it did not go in it hit the crossbar. The ball went right to Billy and the he started dribbiling up the field. One defender tried to steal the ball but Billy just hit the ball through his legs. But then another defender tried to steal the ball from Billy, and he did a double scissors. The move was so nasty that he made the defender fall down. Then it was just Michael and Billy. Billy then dribbeled up to Michael and did a rainbow over Michael's head. So that's how Billy got bye the last three defenders. Then it was just Billy and the goalie. Billy was sprinting down the field so fast he looked like a car going 100 mp. ???  Once Billy got close to the goal he shot the ball and the ball went off the post and in. When Billy got back up the field he looked like he was going to pass out. So a lot happened in the first five minutes of the second half.

So five minutes in to the second half the game is 2-1 with the Unicorns winning. 10 minutes later after some great diving saves by Rico. The Unicorns were finally able to give Rico a break by trying to score with only 15 minutes left in the game. So this is what happened after Rico passed the ball to Jack who passed the to the ball to the teams smallest, but fastest player, named Drake. Then Drake passed the ball to David who passed the ball to Billy, who passed the ball to a wide open Drake who chipped the ball over the goalies head and it was in. ???  Then Drake ran up to Jack and did a shoulder bump with him. It was Drake and Jack's celebration when ever one of them scored. So the score was 3-1 with only 15 minutes left in the game. Once everybody regroped the Penquins did the tap and then passed it to Justin who was the teams best passer. Then Justin passed the ball to Michael, who passed the ball back to him. They kept passing the ball back end forth till they got all the way up the field. Then once they got up the field Justin gave one last pass to Michael right in front of the goal and it was a easy open net goal for Michael. That play took about 3 minutes, some there was 12 minutes left in the with the Unicorns winning 3-2.

Marking Period 3

So after the the penquins were instintally got the ball back they were like hungry wolves looking for food. Since they were hungry wolves they found their prey the soccer ball. Once they stole the ball Justin passed the ball to Michael who did a maradona and meged Jack. The move was so nasty Jack fell down. Once Jack got back up he wisperd to him self and said  I will get you back for that play. But Michael still had the ball and was all the way in the corner trapped by Drake and Billy. But some how he got out of the trapped corner by doing a quick rainbow over their head and sliding through the legs of Billy. Then he gave Justin a perfect cross and Justin hit the ball with his head into the back of the net. Rico tried to make the diving mid air save but it was just out of his reach. So now their was only 10 minutes left with the score 3-3. So it was not looking good for the Unicorns right now. Michael and Justin were looking so good it looked like fire was coming out of them because that's how good they were playing. They were playing so well it looked like it was Messi and Ronaldo on the same team. Michael and Justin left off right back where they started right back off where they started. But their was just one problem Rico was in their way. They got up the field and Billy shot the ball and the ball was about to go through his legs. ?  But Rico put his hand back behind him and in between his legs and grabbed the ball and then rolled the ball to Jack who was just outside the 18 yard box. All that action took about 5 minutes. So their was only 5 minutes left in the game. Jack new he had to hurry up in order to get up the field in time.He finially go up the field with only 3 and a half minutes left to go. So now Jack had the ball and was dribbiling up the field with it and did a very nice cut on Justin. Now he was just about up the field with only 1 minute left in the game. Then Jack gave David a great through ball and Jack got the ball right back after a great run of the ball. ?  David was up by Pattons goalie and just tapped a pass to Jack again but the ball was just out of his reach and he trield to slide for the ball like a baseball player does when they are running towards home plate. No their was only 45 seconds in the game with Pattons goalie with the ball. If you were in the eyes of the Patton goalie you would see the whole unicorns team crowded around you and the Michael wide open, so as his instincts told him he threw the ball to the wide open Michael. Then of course Michael started sprinting up so fast it looked like a race car was on the field with the ball with now only 30 seconds left in the game. Now it was just Michael and Rico, with only 25 seconds left in the game. Now Michael was going even fast and their was now only 10 seconds left in the game. Since their was only 10 seconds left Michael faked like he was going to shoot the ball once. Then on his second attempt he shot the ball and it barley got by Rico and it was not looking good for the Unicorns. ?  Now the ball was about to cross the line. Then out of the blink of an eye Jack came out of the middle of no where and decided to slide and knock the ball off the goal line as time expired. The refs reviewd the play just to be sure. But the call was correct the game between the Unionville Unicorns and The Patton Penquins would be going in to over time. With the score being 3-3 and Billy having 2 goals and one assist. But Jack has had the best play of the game so far. Everybody on both teams were exhausted from 2 halves of very hard a competitive soccer. The game was so intense the fans were even tired from watching the extrodinary game go down. 4 Marking Period

While the teams got their breaks the fans decided to cheer so loud it sounded like 30 little girls where screaming at the same time. Each tam got 5 minutes to rest before overtime. Now it was time to discuss the plan for overtime. The exact words from coach Joe were  First of all great playing out their and Jack great slide you saved the games for everyone''.  The Plan is Billy you Drake,and David will get the ball at tap and go up to the corner and pass the ball around their and Drag Michael toward you guys. Then You guys pass the ball all the way back to Rico and then Rico comes up the field and shoots the ball. But this part goes toward everyone. You guys all need to be ready to get the rebounds and if the Penquins get the ball just foul them,but not in a way to earn a card''.  The final thing is Rico if the other team has the ball get back in goal as soon as possible.  Sorry guys I just have one more thing to say  No matter what happens you guys are still great soccer players''.  Now starters take the field . Now it was time for overtime to begin and oh I forgot to say that overtime is 10 minutes long and if the score is still tied we will go to a penalty shootout.  Now really lets play says coach Joe. But right before the game they had to do a coin toss. Coach Joe sent Drake and Billy and the other team sent Michael and Justin. But this is when things get ugly. The bad thing happened at the coin toss. The bad thing that happened Drake and Justin got into a fist fight about who would get to call the coin toss. Drake karate kicked Justin in the stomach and then Justin went up to Drake and Rkod him to the ground then he bit him in the leg. Drakes leg was so bloody it looked like a waterfall was coming out of his leg that was full of blood. Then the ref finially was able to pull them apart. Then the ref gave both of them red cards. (If you do not know what a red card is it a card A player get for bad play on the field. Then the player has to go off the field and can not return. Also the team has to play a man down for the rest of the game.) Now it was time for the game to actually begin, with the Penquins getting the ball first. In over time The Penquins got the ball first and passed it around in their own half and then one Penquins player made a bad pass and then passed the ball right to David and that terrible pass put David on a break away. Everyone was screaming their heads off saying stuff like shoot keep going and don't screw up and now David was just about to shoot the ball but then the Penquins goalie came out and got the ball. Then the Penquins goalie passed the ball to Michael who beat Billy by doing a double scissors by him. Michael was still dribbling down the field with the ball, with only 5 minutes left of overtime. Michael was about to shoot the ball but NO! He facked everybody out and then he had a clear shot just outside the 18 yard box. Then Michael shot the ball and the ball was about to go into the top right corner, but instead Rico made a fantastic save a punched the ball onto the the crossbar and then out of play. Now their was only one minute left of over time and the Penquins had a corner kick. Everybody was so excited they could hardly stay in their seats and it looked like they where on trampoline because that's how excited ,they where. Michael was the corner kick taker and he then kicked the ball into the air and then Jack jumeped out of the air and cleared the ball away using his head. Now that was the end of overtime. Now it was time for a penalty shootout. Each team would get 5 shots wich ever team had the most goals would win the game. The order that the Unicorns would be taking their penaltys is Daivid is first,then Jack,then Rico,then Ryan and then Billy. The Penquins penalty kick order is Griffin would go first, then Jamie, then Evan, than Chase and to finish it off it would be Michael. Now it was time for the penalty shoot out to begin. The Penquins would get to shoot first. Griffin lined up to shoot the ball and ran up a kick the ball and was aimming for the bottom left corner, but Rico made a great diving save and knocked the ball away with his right hand. Then he jumped up and screamed LETS GO BOYS!!! Even after one penalty shot the fans where into it and they where screaming so loud it sounded like 10,000 horns where getting blown at the same time ,but out of everyone Joe was the most excited.
