Dave was playing with a star-studded team, arguably the best team in the world at the moment while Mateo was playing with Unique FC, an average team in Bilbeth Premier League.
Unique FC were currently ranked at number three hundred and fifty-two in the UEFA rankings while Barcelona was ranked second just behind Real Madrid.
Dave had the better team by a far margin but Mateo was dominating him so far, he was bullying him to be precise.
The winger had put one goal into Dave's goalpost just five minutes into the game, video game time and he had done it in the coolest way he could.
A smooth cross from Carlos from the right wing and a wonderful bicycle kick finish from the video game version of himself.
"I haven't really scored a bicycle kick before, but it's nice to see that he can do it which means that I can do it too." The winger said after scoring the goal.
The video game time was showing thirty-eight minutes and still moving fast and so far Dave had been unable to do anything reasonable with all the stars with wonderful stats in his squad, it felt like Mateo knew every single one of his moves and was always there to stop him.
"Why is this so hard compared to the last time I played it?" Dave said with a frustrated look on his face.
"Maybe your skills have gone rusty just like you suspected," Mateo said.
'Shut up Catherine.'
"Yeah, but didn't you see all those chances I created for Fred, Carlos, and even Minino and they missed it?" Mateo said.
"No, you missed them, you're the one holding the controller," Dave said.
Mateo was quiet for a while before he replied.
"I guess you're right in some sense, I'll try to share in the second half but trust me, you won't like it."
The scoreboard and statistics of the first half were being displayed on the screen and so far in the match, Mateo had managed to keep eighty-one percent of ball possession while Dave had only managed to get nineteen percent of ball possession.
Mateo had played twelve shots with ten of them being on target while Dave had only managed to play three shots and all of them were off target.
'You don't always have to state the obvious, Catherine.'
"Before we start the second half," Mateo said before turning his gaze to Dave. "I heard you and Emma are engaged now."
"Yeah," Dave said with a nod.
"That's good news, so when's the wedding coming up?" The winger asked.
"Umm...I don't actually know since I haven't really discussed it with Emma but I want to get it over with before next season so it has to be next month."
"Okay," Mateo said before turning his gaze back to the television.
"Wait," Dave said before he could click the continue to second half option.
"What?"
"My throat's a bit dry." The goalkeeper said.
"If you want something to drink then you're going to go get it yourself, my mom's not back yet," Mateo said. "The fridge is around the corner."
"Okay," Dave said before he slowly got up from the bed. "I'll be back."
The goalkeeper made his way out of the room and to the fridge, he was about to open it when he heard knocks coming from the door.
"That must be Mrs. Smith." He said before quickly making his way to the door and after opening it he could see that it was just as he thought.
"Hello, Mrs. Smith." The goalkeeper said quickly, putting on a smile.
"Dave? Well, this is a surprise." Martha said before quickly making her way to the couch to drop off all the bags she was holding. "Is Emma here with you?"
"No, I came alone," Dave replied.
"Okay, I guess Mateo is in his room."
"Yeah." He said.
"Okay." She said before quickly making her way to Mateo's room.

After getting trashed by Mateo in the game nine goals to one, Dave spent a little more time with Mateo and his mother before he decided to start heading home.
"8:30 PM." He muttered after entering his car and checking his watch. "Emma's going to be wondering where I ran off to by now, it's strange she hasn't called me up till now."
