Although the boys are clearly having a conversation about football (or soccer in US English), and the meaning of individual words or phrases is not important, it would be nice to ask some football-mad members of the class to find the meaning of words such as defence, fan, semifinal, final, kick-off, match, score, striker and supporter and teach them to the rest of the class. We also have the first use of the word sorted!, short for sorted out!, which means that everything has been organised. Sorted! is at the time of writing an extremely common word among YNS, but these things change. Historically, the only English YNS word that has gone from generation to generation is cool.
