Instead, it shot away in a completely different direction – straight towards a Jaguar player.

The crowd groaned. His cheeks red with embarrassment, Tom spotted Zolin laughing hysterically. He gritted his teeth again. If I can’t play by their rules, I’ll play by mine, he told himself.

Tom didn’t have long to wait. The Jaguar team had seen that he was the weakest player. Their next attack came straight towards him. This time, Tom was ready. As the ball came hurtling towards him, he caught it on his chest. Letting the ball drop to his feet, he began juggling it in the air, just like he had before the five-a-side match.

“Hey! You can’t do that!” shouted Zolin.

“Watch me,” Tom grinned.

When Zolin ran over to try and grab the ball off him, Tom kicked it neatly over the boy’s head. Zolin went sprawling to the ground. The crowd burst out laughing. This made the young Jaguar Warrior angrier than ever. With a snarl, he picked himself up off the ground and chased after Tom.

Just as Tom was about to kick the ball to an Eagle team-mate, Zolin crashed into the back of him. Tom staggered sideways, the ball skewing off his foot. Instead of flying to his team-mate, it looped up high into the air. Holding his breath, Tom watched as the ball bounced off the wall and dropped neatly through the stone hoop. The Eagle team had won!

For a second there was complete silence. Then everyone in the crowd was on their feet cheering. Eagle Warriors ran up to Tom. Laughing, they lifted him into the air and carried him back towards Zuma and Mat. The two of them were hugging each other at the end of the court. Chilli was running around their feet in excited circles.

Over the cheers Tom could still hear Zolin’s whining voice. “But it’s not fair!” the young Jaguar Warrior was shouting. “He used his feet!”
