The Match

The referee had blown the whistle

The game had started, the North Americans were facing the African countries, and right from the start, it looked bad for them

Mexico, the goalie was putting in a shift, repeatedly saving the team from the relentless attack

The main problem came from their Striker Nigeria, who was causing problems left and right, Dominican Republic was supposed to defend against him, but he just couldn't stop Nigeria who was way stronger physically, it had been 45 minutes and they were already about to crumble, luckily, it was half time and that meant going back to the locker room for 20 minutes and taking a rest

*WHOOSH*

As soon as he entered again, a bottle came flying at him, the source was non other than Jamaica

"Why can't you do anything huh? You are so useless, we had to do everything just to make up for your stupid mistakes" Jamaica looked so mad, and rightfully so, he had to constantly run back to defend which left him exhausted

But before the Dominican could say anything, he felt himself being slammed against the wall by Jamaica, which caught the attention of everyone else

Unfortunately, DR had a fragile ego, so he shoved back, and in a few seconds, the locker room was in chaos, all that could be heard was shouting and things falling, luckily they were seperated before anything else could happen

Haiti managed to calm his brother down and brought him to the corner to talk

"Domi, don't let your ego get in the way, you could've used that as motivation and try to prove him wrong. Look, you can't keep on hating him, you wanted to win the competition? Then you have to deal with him and he has to deal with you, forgive and forget Domi"

The DR had regret in his eyes, he demoralised his team all because he couldn't handle some truthful scolding, his brother was right, if he forgave Jamaica, Jamaica would forgive him, he had to put his ego aside and apologise, so he approached the Jamaican from behind

"Hey"

The Jamaican turned around and understandibly responded with hostility

"I'm not in the mood leave me alo-"

"I'm sorry for what I've done"

"Hoh?" The Jamaican couldn't believe it, the proud and rich Dominican Republic who only cared about himself had apologised to him, he couldn't believe it

"I.....I guess I forgive you?"

Their moment was ruined by Haiti who suddenly barged in to hug them both

"Nice to see you two making up" said the Haitian with a smile, he couldn't believe how much he had actually influenced his brother

But the other two eventually seperated and just stood there awkwardly, fortunately for them, the awkwardness was broken up as it was time to go back on the pitch, this time they were going to give it their all

The referee blew the whistle once again

This time, the whole flow of the match felt different, Nigeria couldn't get past the DR and Jamaica was using his speed to cause all sorts of problems for the defense

......

Egypt had kicked in a high pass aimed towards Nigeria, but DR leaped up with all his energy and used his head to put the ball away, the ball fell to Haiti who instantly ran forward with it, the Haitian was smaller in stature, but he was quick, and very speedy
