Answer:Our football team had two injured players; we lost the game.

Explanation:One of the most common uses of semicolon is to join two independent clauses without having to appeal to a conjunction (such as "and"). In this case, we have "Our football team had two injured players" and "We lost the game". Both of them are independent clauses, therefore the use of semicolon is correct in this sentence.

Answer:

This essay does not have a stated thesis. What is Diaz's main idea? Write a sentence that could serve as a thesis statement. Where in the essay could this sentence be added? Should such a sentence be added? Why or why not? I believe Diaz's main idea is, be careful who you trust. I believe the thesis statement should be “It's hard to trust someone”. This should be added in the introduction. It is important that this is added because a thesis is the center of an essay. It should also be added because every paragraph in the body would support this statement.
