Vocabulary
Grammar
We use the phrase '(be) + going to' to talk about future plans.
For example: John: 'What are you going to do this weekend?'
Sally: 'I'm going to watch the match on TV'.
Can you think of 5 things that you plan to do this weekend?
I'm going to...........
Can or Can't?
We use the modal verb can to talk about a person's ability. The modal verb is followed by the infinitive form of a verb. The negative form is can't.
For example: Sally: 'Can you play the piano?'
John: 'No, I can't, but I can play the guitar.'
Can you play a musical instrument?

I think that Lucas was repressed at first, because it'a a new club, new people so he's embarrassed.
And about Bruno. At first, of course, he was dissapointed, because he wants to play but he was rejected by Lucas. But at the end, he was inspired of the inviting. And of course, the most important thing in this short story is that team spirit is more important than individual skils.

It's a good idea and something we are considering. There are advantages and disadvantages to both systems. If you have the latest comment first it's easy for you to find it, which is great but we would also like the comments section to look like a conversation between users on the website. In this case, it makes more sense if the latest comment is last. We will probably discuss it again :)

That's a good experience for Lucas. If there is someone else agree to join his team, he won't ask for Bruno again. And he judged Bruno just by his look. He asked Bruno when he had no choice to complete his team. I think when he lived in his old city, his behavior was similar with Rafael. Anyway, he changed his mind, so he will be a better friends in new place.
About Filipe, if I were him, I would request Lucas to admit Bruno. If he didn't, I wouldn't join his team.
