Being a soccer player was not easy, especially when it came to displaying sportsmanship with opponents. This was Paul’s biggest weakness. He was benched during his last game. He got so bent out of shape over it. What did he expect when he caused a player to fall down and start heaving on the ground. He got so irritated when things didn't go his way. He burst out when he was tripped from behind. He added fuel to the fire when he decided to scream at the top of his lungs and pick a fight with the other team. In the back of his mind, he always seeks to cream his opponents. However, Luca, a player on his team, was on his back and urged him to break it up. Paul’s team always finds themselves in hot water and the coach was up in arms when he got dismissed from the game with a red card and no substitute could replace him. Paul broke out and went into the stadium to take a deep breath after all the mess that he caused. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wafa-damlaj/support
