Chloe: Hi, Steve. It's a pleasure.
Steve: OK. Let's look !
What was happening here, Chloe?
Chloe: This photo is brilliant. It's from a match . In the fourth minute of the game, a Liverpool fan the pitch right next to the Liverpool goal. At the same time, a Sunderland player with the ball. He kicked the ball -the football, I mean - it hit the beach ball and .
Steve: Really?
Chloe: Yes, really! The poor goalkeeper - at the beach ball or at the football!
Steve: The referee , did he?
Chloe: Well, I didn't think it was a goal, but the referee allowed it! Thousands of fans , of course. The TV pictures that the football went into the goal because it hit the beach ball.
Steve: No way! Didn't Liverpool complain?
Chloe: Yes, but the referee , and Sunderland won the match one-nil!
Steve: That isn't fair, is it?
Chloe: Well, maybe the referee , but you can't change the result after a match. Anyway, the Liverpool players . I think Sunderland that night.
