It was about 3 months ago when I had a visited a busy place. On the first day of July I decided to go to the stadium to watch a final match of the football competition with it’s one of my friends. Honestly at first I thought that there would be fewer spectators than the last year’s final match but I was mistaken at that time because when I arrived at the stadium it was overflowing with people. I was not good at that time as I had not expected such a packet setting. Also seats were being taken by people but we could not back to our home without watching the game as we had come to the stadium from a great distance. Before we decided to enter the stadium however while we were going towards the entrance we were stuck in the middle of the crowd and we could not move on. It was a kind of terrible situation even losing becoming a challenging task for us. Surprisingly the flow of spectators took us to the stadium and we had to stand during the whole game because there were not any free seats to sit. Fortunately at the end of the game my favorite club won and became a champion of the competition. As a time I was over the moon despite the problems which I had faced in the entrance.

It was about three months ago when I visited a busy place. On the first day of July, I decided to go to the stadium to watch the final match of the football competition with one of my friends. Honestly, at first, I thought that there would be fewer spectators than at last year's final match, but I was mistaken because when I arrived at the stadium, it was overflowing with people. I was not prepared for that situation as I had not expected such a packed setting. Also, seats were being taken by people, but we could not go back home without watching the game since we had come to the stadium from a great distance. Before we decided to enter the stadium, however, while we were going towards the entrance, we were stuck in the middle of the crowd and could not move. It was a kind of terrible situation, and even getting in became a challenging task for us. Surprisingly, the flow of spectators took us to the stadium, and we had to stand during the whole game because there were no free seats to sit. Fortunately, at the end of the game, my favorite club won and became the champion of the competition. At that moment, I was over the moon despite the problems I faced at the entrance.
