Adjust the support: Let learners use word help or Level 1 if needed. For a challenge, compare the wording in another level. This activity is not a proficiency test.
Answers to the 2 questions
The question numbers match the student worksheet. Each answer includes a reason and the clue learners can find in the story.
How many times did Liverpool go ahead?
Correct answer: B — Twice
Why: Liverpool went ahead twice and Fenerbahçe responded each time.
Clue in the story: Liverpool went ahead twice, but Fenerbahçe scored after each goal. Mason Greenwood and Archie Brown got the first two goals for the home team.
Who scored the winning goal?
Correct answer: A — Vedat Muriqi
Why: Greenwood and Brown scored the first two home goals; Muriqi then scored the winner.
Clue in the story: Vedat Muriqi then scored to give Fenerbahçe the win. It was the Turkish club’s first victory in this season’s competition.
The open question: accept different answers
Ask learners: Describe the result and explain why Muriqi’s goal was different from Fenerbahçe’s first two goals.
One possible answer: Fenerbahçe won 3–2. Its first two goals answered Liverpool’s goals, while Muriqi’s goal put Fenerbahçe ahead and won the match.
This is an example, not the only correct answer. Look for a relevant idea, a reason and the learner’s own words. Learners can answer aloud or write one or two sentences.
Grammar to discuss
Frequency with twice
Liverpool went ahead twice
Twice means two times. It counts how often Liverpool took the lead, not the final number of goals in the match.
