Task 1
I wanted to look for a player called karl brown as I wanted to know more about the player. I searched karl brown and it gave me too many searches for “karl brown” which some weren’t relevant. So i had to look for the relevant link and as soon as i found my link i clicked on it and it gave me the information that i was looking for.
Correct Link
Task 2
I wanted to buy a ticket for a match. To buy the ticket i went in the ticket section but i found an issue and it was that i needed to make an account with them before i buy the ticket. This process wasted a lot of my time. After that i entered my bank details to get the ticket.
