5. I first became interested in football when I was nine. Now I play in my school team and join my friends for a game every week on a regular basis. It’s fun. My favourite footballer is David Beckham although I also like Ronaldo. They are both excellent and have great skills too. Apart from playing at school I go to sports school every weekend. I learn many skills there, such as passing the ball and scoring. I especially like playing on the wing like Beckham but being a striker is good as well.
