Sergei: you often go to football matches, Alan?

Sergei: Well, you can see all the important matches on television, I suppose.
Alan: That’s never quite the same.
Sergei: I suppose, you’re right. Can I get you another beer?
Alan: Let’s get it after the game, perhaps. I think it’s time to go back.
Sergei: Let’s go then. And thanks for my beer, Alan.
