VIP Class Notes (Jesse) [W]

Writing exercise

The football game between Spain and Island captured all the attraction of people. The Spain which the team has Messi should won it normally, but it didn’t. With “Messi apologize†being the hashtag as hot topic on Chinese social medias overnight, people always can’t accept the legend making any mistakes, poor Messi. Although I have no experience about football games, the way I felt I joined was that bought the lottery to pick the winning team. God bless, I forgot to pick the Spain yesterday. The day before yesterday, I won the lottery between Iran and Morocco because I referred to the advice from my friend cycle in WeChat. Tonight, I will pick the dog fall between Germany and Mexico, best wishes to me!
