At night like at 7:00 p.m it’s very dark, cold, sparkling and very cloudy. I’m walking inside the stadium. The stadium lights are so bright that we can see the game very clearly. The stadium is in Stockton. Fans ,coaches, refs and the players were here. When people first got there, there were a lot of people in line trying to get inside the stadium. This is place in Stockton. They are trying to find their seats in time so they wouldn’t miss the start of the game. Everyone comes early so they can find their seats and get something to eat before the game starts so no one will miss anything. When everyone went to the food court it smelled nachos, pizza, and popcorn and some desserts like churros, cotton candy. When everyone got their food they went to find their seats , when they found their seats everyone sat down and started eating because the food looked so good, when people got a slice of pizza the cheese was cheesy it was so good! The players were warming up, the coaches telling the players the plan, players running, passing the ball, practicing their free kicks, stretching.The kick off started and the first thing that happened in the stadium were people cheering, whistling and chanting to give the players more motivation. The players are focused on winning the game, once the players scored a goal all the players started celebrating. They were all happy they started doing their famous celebration, jumping up and down; even the fans were cheering. The sounds that were going on were the coach giving their players advice, the sound of the ball when they kicked it, and the players yelling at each other. After the second half they subbed in new players because some players were very tired. Their faces looked very sweaty, exhausted. After the game ended the score was a tie 2–2. Some of the players were mad because they wanted to win, all the fans started leaving. It was very crowded and everyone was trying to leave. After all this was a good experience; I really enjoyed the whole game. I really liked how I got to see the players play in person. I can also see what I wouldn’t see on TV. After all, I would recommend coming to a soccer game.
