Score 10

LÊ VINH |

Imagine, a football match ends and all players of a team get a perfect score of 10...

Or a little more modestly, only about 7-8 players receive a score of 10. Will the football world admire, or will people look with skepticism at an unimaginable anomaly?

It is definitely unusual. Because, in the movement of all things, there is no absolute perfection. No matter how destructive your team wins, even if the goalkeeper runs over the goal to score, small scratches of position or tempo still always appear.

If the opponent is too weak, a score of 10 becomes meaningless because no measure can prove true class. And if the opponent is strong enough, no force can completely overwhelm from beginning to end so that everyone can reach the perfect peak. With top football, a score of 10 is a luxury privilege, only for outstanding moments.

Speaking of scores of 10, the education system has just witnessed the story of an unusual score of 10 at a high school graduation exam council in a mountainous province. The "student players" played a perfect match, bringing scores of 10 of affirmation. But in the end, the rain of scores of 10 did not make the education sector happy, but on the contrary, it was a bad feeling in public opinion.

When "opponents" - that is, exam questions - are not too weak to turn the national exam into a joke, then in the end, behind that performance, after that rain of 10s, there are tricks for the purpose of seemingly beautiful but in the end not beautiful, even directly affecting "student players". When perfection is granted "according to the policy and direction", it suddenly becomes cheap and loses value.

Occasionally, people see Lionel Messi or some star getting a score of 10. In theory, in a national exam, there may be many scores of 10, but they are scattered, reasonable and based on real ability, not thanks to negativity. Messi does not live forever with the score of 10 of a match. His value is his career journey. Similarly, the current scores of 10 of the "student player" have not - and cannot - define the future path.

Only (adults) like achievements, like that trap-ridden perfection.
