The Famous Story of Obiba J.K (Red Lions and Green Hawks)
Do you remember the Famous Story of Obiba J.K (Red Lions and Green Hawks)? Let us take you back on memory lane with this masterpiece of old.
One day, Tana Red Lions wrote a letter to Duaso Green Hawks. They wanted to play a football match with them.
The captain of the Red Lions was J.K Sasraku. His supporters called him Obiba J.K. He was a good player.
The captain of the Green Hawks was also a good player. His friends called him “Football Doctor”.
The Red Lions and their supporters went to Duase at 3:00 pm. The Green Hawks were already on the football field.
There were many people on the field. The chief of Duase and his elders were there. The teachers and their pupils were also there to witness the encounter.
Soon, the referee of the day came to the field with the two lines men (assistant referees). The centre referee blew his whistle and the captains of both teams ran to the centre of the field.
The referee tossed a coin. The captain of the Green Hawks won the toss.
The linesmen went to their ends of the field where they would be assisting the referee throughout the match. After that, the captains called their players. The Green Hawks wore green jerseys and white shorts. The Red Lions wore a red jersey and white shorts.
The players stood at their positions for the start of the match between the two teams.
Soon the match began.
Many people cheered, “Obiba J.K” and “Football Doctor”.
They were good players. The score at the end of the first half was Red Lions 2, Green Hawks 2.
In the second half, the Red Lions played a very good game. Obiba K.K played very well, but Football Doctor and his team were very strong.
They played and played and played, but there was no score. No team was able to score after the 2 all draw of the first half.
The goalkeepers of both teams were very good.
Then Adamu of the Red Lions had the ball. He was near the Green Hawks’ goal area. He quickly passed it to Ata, Ata too quickly passed the ball to “Obiba J.K”. Obiba J.K kicked it hard into the net. It was a goooaaaaaaal. The supporters of the Red Lions cheered and danced.
Soon, the referee blew his whistle. That was the end of the game. The score was Red Lions 3, Green Lions 2.
The Green Hawks lost the game to their opponents. The Tana players won it. They went back happily to their village.
