Bhutan vs Sri Lanka

It was team Bhutan playing against Sri Lanka to decide whether she remains on the road to Russia in 2018. As wished by all Bhutanese especially the football fanatics our country maintained its stand on the road to 2018 world cup winning Sri Lanka 2-1 goals. The first match was played in Colombo where our country won by 1 goal.
     We were invited by our principal after the 7th session to watch the match live on BBS 2. The moment I joined my colleagues Sri Lanka equalised our country. There after the ball was theirs most of the time which made all of us clinch our fists and control our throbbing heart.
      Bhutan's team could revive its play after the half time break which radiated us rays of hope of winning. The stadium was fully occupied with both soccer enthusiasts and well wishers supporting our country. Couple of golden opportunities were missed yet almost at the last minute a well composed goal from our country confirmed our stand on the road to 2018 Russia. All could finally go home with smiles on face and pride at heart. Even we had forgotten our tiring times just by watching on a screen. The evening was refreshed, more refreshed with our country's win. Wholehearted kudos and appreciation to our national soccer squad. May the team amdassador our country and her GNH in many Yeats to come. May stars be born with the teams inspiration.
     With our country exposed to modernity only much much later, we have advantage over every change and development. We don't have to go through the whole process of development and change. In short time we could become change with all success and failures of the countries which underwent whole process of change and development. So is in the field of games and sports. Watching today's game I can conclude that the quality and manner of our team has improved drastically. The success of football could be the popularity of the game among our youth. Even most of the adults are football fanatics and watch and play the game greatly. Football fever is always on among our people with most watching popular matches such as EPL, champions league, LA liga etc.
     With that quality of play shown by our country's team this evening and with intensifying popularity of international soccer matches our country will not take long time to challenge internationally acclaimed teams. May our dragon's roar roar success n jubilation.
     Congratulations our national team.
