You play a team sport with some friends. Last week, a memver of the team had an accident and wasn't able to play with you at the weekend. You decide to write to him in hospital, telling him about the match. Write a letter to your friend. In your letter, tell him which team won describe the conditions on the day say how you felt about the match

Dear David, I am sorry I haven'
t
written to you since the
last
week. I was waiting for you to feel better after the unfortunate accident you had
last
Saturday. I am writing
this
letter to keep updated you on the latest game which was organized in the university's playground. I have to mention that we couldn'
t
be a team without you and your positive perspective in games.
Hence
, the game results were disappointing, and, unfortunately, we lost in the competition. The new player who took a role on the corner didn'
t
familiar enough with the rules so we lost all the chances we had to get a score.
Also
, other members were scared of possible accidents and couldn'
t
focus well on the game.
Therefore
, we all look forward to the
next
games where we will beat them. I hope you will get better ASAP and join the team to reach better results. Yours, Dorna
