The boys who probably were on Sofian’s team and some girls who supported him cheered and carried him shoulder high to celebrate.

When it was Sofian’s turn to play against Kenyatta, the short boy played to Kenyatta’s right. By the time the goalkeeper went down to catch the ball, it had already passed into the post.

The children, including the commentator, jubilated and again carried Sofian. Before he allowed them to carry him, Sofian walked to Kenyatta beating his chest with a frown, probably telling him that he rules the football game in the community.
