The kid who is always on the bench, sentence 0

Sam in Leeds sits on the bench all match in his kit, getting colder, and asks «Did I even play?»; coaches pick for many reasons (positions, who trained, who's played most), so sitting out once is not a verdict on you.

Who acts: Sam, coaches, many reasons · What happens: sit, get, ask, play, pick, train · To what, where: match, bench, most, verdict · Speech: someone speaks here
