Nervous moment

Butterflies in my Stomach

When you're small, playing football against Napier makes you really nervous.

I was only 9 years old at the time and I was representing Gisborne to play against Napier. While we drove there my heart was beating rapidly and while we did the warm up I was even more nervous.

As the game started and  I started on the bench and then my coach told me “Billy you're going on now”. Now I feel like my heart is going to come out of my chest. I start at right back and then the ref blows his whistle for half time. My nerves have gone away and we're losing 5-2 and it's not looking like we're coming back. So when the second half darts I get moved to the right wing and I set up a goal but he missed by an inch, I'm so annoyed . I came off about ten minutes into the second half and there's only fifteen minutes left and we were losing 6-2. The game finished and the final score was 7-2 to Napier.

When I heard the final whistle I couldn’t believe I did because when you're small playing football against napier makes you really nervous.

Title: Bayern Munich football team is the best in the world.

Introduction  What football team is the best in the world? I think that Bayern Munich is the best team in the world because of the champions league titles, all their  trophies and all of their fans worldwide.

Argument 1  Firstly, there is the champions league where all of the best teams in the world go against each other. They won the champions league this year and now tied 3rd of most wins in the champions league titles in the world. They won all of their 14 games in the champions league and scored 42 goals and closest to them had only in the whole of the tournament 25 goals and only 2 of Bayern Munich players had 24 goals.

Argument 2  Secondly, Bayern Munich have won 70 trophies all together and have 12th most trophies in the world. They won 8 league titles in a row from 2013. They have won the most trophies in their league ever.

Argument 3 Lastly, there are fans. They have 291,000 official members. With 4,433 fan clubs with over 390,000 members. They have the 5th biggest fan base in the world and have an average 1.5 million shirt sales a year. The amount of fans they have in a game is 75,000 and the value of their club is $2.3 billion.

Conclusion Therefore, I think that Bayern Munich is the best in the world for all of these reasons and because they have won the champions league this year with all the best teams.

White Rhinoceroses

White Rhinos are the second largest land mammal after the elephant. Rhino is not the scientific name it is Rhinoceroses and comes from Afrikaans. There are only 5 species of Rhinos 2 in Africa and 3 in Asia and their group name is called crash.

White and black rhinos are actually grey even though they are called black and white rhinos. An adult white rhino is the same height as a Asian elephant at 2.5 m-4m and weigh 500 kg-2500kg. Rhinos horn grow 3 inches a year and most ever was 5 feet. The horn is not actually connected to their skull and they have squared lips.

White rhinos live in northern and southern Africa and both northern white rhinos are female.

Since rhinos have square lips they can pluck leaves and fruit off trees. Female white rhinos use their horn to protect and males use it to fight. Rhinos actually have a very good hearing and smell. Some rhinos can reach upto the speed of 40km per hour. I have learnt alot about white rhinos and I think people should stop killing the rhinos so they can live like they used to.
