The sun beat down hard as Musab Kheder jogged back into position on the right side of the pitch. Sweat trickled down his temple, but his focus never wavered. The game was tight, the score locked at one-all, and every tackle counted.
“Musab, watch their winger — he’s quick and tricky!” the captain shouted from midfield.
Musab flashed a determined glance. “Got it. I’ll shut him down.”
Just then, the opponent charged down the wing, ball glued to his feet. Musab matched his speed, staying close, forcing the winger to hesitate.
With a perfectly timed tackle, Musab won the ball cleanly, immediately pushing forward to launch a counterattack.
“Keep it moving, Musab! Let’s turn defense into offense!” his teammate yelled.
Musab nodded, his energy surging. “This is our moment. Let’s make it count.”
Relentless and sharp, Musab Kheder was in his element—ready to take his team to victory one sprint, one tackle at a time.
