Fooball Academy (first readers)

A Special Training

A nasty defeat, lots of arguing, and a crazy training plan

What a disaster: Yao and his team have lost badly—five goals conceded! Goalkeeper Max slams his gloves onto the ground, Amanda wishes she could disappear after scoring an own goal, and in the end everyone is pointing fingers at everyone else. The mood is completely ruined. And then the math test comes back—full of mistakes.

But the coaches have a plan, and it’s quite something. From now on, everyone has to train exactly what they’re bad at. Fiete suddenly has to shoot with his right foot, Maria practices running backwards, and Yao works on controlling high balls. And sure enough, with every training session they all get a little better—both on the field and as a team. But will the trick work for math too?
