For Adam, it was the perfect day with the ideal conditions in which to play his first match in England. The weather was gorgeous that afternoon. Blue skies, no wind, ambient temperature—it was more like an absence of weather. The usual autumn coldness was absent that Tuesday.

the West ham Stadium was millions of perfect grass strands as eager for the start of play as the fans who had already brought the stadium to light. Adam could hear their loud cheers fueling his eagerness to perform. But at the same time, he was a bit overwhelmed by the atmosphere. It had been a long time since he last played in front of a crowd.

Adam stretched his legs and watched the west ham. players march into the other half of the pitch. Their gray training kit that seemed kinda dull to Adam.

As they took the field in perfect formation, a slow, steady booing filled the air. The West ham home fans were already giving the Newcastle fans hell even before the match started. Although the stadium was only a quarter full, the cheers of the fans were deafening.

"All players stop the warm-up exercises and head to the dressing room..." The assistant coach, Peters, yelled as he moved around the half of the pitch occupied by the Leeds united

Adam found the dressing room in a state of chaos. Hoots, hollers, and laughter sounded back and forth through the air, ricocheting off the lockers like metal bullets. Most of the players were slowly putting on their blue t-shirts and white shots. That was the official away jersey of team Leeds United.

"Adam," Marcus, called out to him after seeing Adam standing by entrance .The coach had named him as one of the forwards for the game.

"Your jersey is there," he said, pointing to one of the hooks beside a locker.

"Thank you," Adam said before picking up the jersey. Since Adam was not yet officially on the team, he received a numberless jersey for that match and only the words strong on the back.

Coach and his assistant soon came in. The room fell into silence. The Newcastle under-19s, dressed in their full jerseys, turned their focus on to the coach.

"We'll play the 4:5:1 formation…" He started explaining the tactics right away while inscribing the squad on the whiteboard fixed to the wall.
