Sports Package Article

http://www.goal.com/en-us/news/enough-with-the-barcelona-talk-its-time-for-philippe-coutinho-to-/18l62vyqihg7n1tuf26q13fzwt

In this article where they talk about the soccer player Philippe Coutinho and how he was gladly received to the club Liverpool after being denied into Barcelona. The article does a good job explaining that Coutinho, a native Brazilian, had the ambition and skills to play up to the Liverpool level. The crowd cheered him on once they put on the field after substituting Emre Can. The article was able to put information of why Coutinho was a valuable player and how he connected and fit in well with the team.

The article was bad at explaining exactly why Barcelona didn't accept Coutinho in the first place. They could have elaborated more on that part to improve the article as well as get insighgt of how he has helped the club improve and what skills and strategies he has brought to the team. The article could have also interviewed Coutinho and given his opinion on the club and on his relationship with the resto of his teammates.

What I would take from this article is that it gives me the idea to do background research on a team on a specific player. Try to include interviews from other players as well as coaches. If there a specific player that I am writing about, I would want to interview that player as well. I would also include live footage of the player while they are in action. That is what I would do for a sports article.
