Liam was an ordinary boy. He was 16 years old and loved football, but his family was very poor. LiamÔÇÖs father had died when he was 10. So, he bought his first football himself by working as a helper. One day, He went to the park with his older brother Max. He was playing football when his brother told Liam that he was going home. After a while, as Liam was playing alone, a coach walking by saw him. He was very impressed by LiamÔÇÖs skills and asked the boy to join his football club, but Liam said he was poor and couldnÔÇÖt join the club. The coach told him, ÔÇ£DonÔÇÖt worry, I will pay for you.ÔÇØ This made Liam very excited. The coach told him to meet on Monday at the park.
Filled with enthusiasm, Liam ran home to tell his mother the good news. And on Monday, Liam went with his mother to the park. The coach talked with her, and she was very thankful. Then, the coach took Liam to the club. At the club, Liam became sad when most of the managers didnÔÇÖt accept Liam until one coach said he will accept Liam in his team. Hence, Liam joined Manchester United. Although he missed many goals during his practice, he became better and better with every passing day.
One day, a senior coach came to visit. And to LiamÔÇÖs surprise, he said he will choose one kid for his club. Liam wanted to join, so he gave his best, impressed the coach, and got accepted in Real Madrid. He also won his first trophy, playing for the very team and went on to become the best footballer. Still, his only dream was to win the World Cup.
Some time later, when it was his last chance, and he had already lost 2 World Cups, he managed to pass all the stages, the quarter-finals, the semi-finals, etc. Now, it was the moment he had been waiting for, the World Cup Final. It was France vs Sweden. Liam was France’s teamÔÇÖs captain and Zlatan was SwedenÔÇÖs captain. Zlatan took the lead. And Liam told his teammates not to give up.
In the match, Liam scored first; then, it was time for penalties. Liam scored, and then, Zlatan scored. Again, LiamÔÇÖs teammates scored, but ZlatanÔÇÖs teammates missed. Finally, Liam won the title. His happiness knew know bounds, and he knew that he couldnÔÇÖt have done it without his teammates, so he appreciated and encouraged them all. In a nutshell, LiamÔÇÖs untiring efforts earned him the title of the GOAT.
