The audience roared, the emotions were high. Pride is at stake here, as the physical and the mental strength of the players are tested. To play in front of a crowd of 30,000; the pressure is unbearable.

The striker attempts a shot from a difficult angle. It looks like its going in but the fine reflexes of the keeper manage to put a stop to it. Quality save, superb keeping. But wait! what's going on? I think I just saw the goalkeeper scores an own goal, with the ball into his hands, back into his own net. What a terrible, horrendous mistake! The supporters are not very happy with what they are seeing. Horrible, horrible, It's just not his day! No 1. Javier cannot afford to make such a mistake in a big game like this. Let's hope we can see something better from him the next time he plays. Players like him falter in the big games. Fine lad, I think he just need more experience and exposure.
