My first football match was in P.E.class when I was 10 at Primary School.
Our P.E.teacher divided the class into two groups-boys and girls.You may think it's unfair(不公平)because 1 might lose the match.But we were still children.We didn't realize the 2 between boys and girls.
Girls always did 3 than boys in primary school.We girls thought winning the match 4 be very easy.
However, things didn't go as 5 expected.The boys were so 6 and strong.As soon as they got the football, they kicked it directly 7 the goal.In a short time, boys had three 8 while we were still at zero.
Their laughing made us very angry.How could we be 9 by them?We got together for a 10 and came up with an idea that we'd hold a re-match.
11 a boy got the football, three or four girls 12 to him.Two grasped(抓住)the boy's clothes and the others snatched(抢夺)the ball.When other girls got the football, they 13 gave it to me, because I ran the fastest.I would hold the ball and 14 running.But when a boy wanted to get the football, he became surprisingly strong.
One time when a boy 15 the ball, I bit(咬)him.The poor boy suddenly began to 16 , I didn't think I had done anything wrong.So I went on.17 I made a goal.
The whole match was like a 18 between boys and girls.I was made to say 19 to the boy I bit, but it didn't 20 .We won, and they regarded me as the team's heroine(英雄).
Is it funny?However, the pleasure that the football has given to me is far more than that.
