Explanation:

- I. Even though I broke my arm during the game:

- This phrase is appropriate to form a coherent sentence that maintains the original meaning, as it shows contrast and allows for both actions to be linked: breaking an arm and scoring a goal.

- II. My broken arm during the game:

- This phrase is incomplete and does not logically or coherently connect the two actions. It merely states the fact without implying any relationship.

- III. Having managed to break my arm during the game:

- This phrase incorrectly suggests that breaking the arm was an accomplishment, while the original context implies scoring a goal despite the injury.

- Option 1, Only II:

- Incorrect as only II is incomplete and does not connect the ideas properly.

- Option 2, I and III:

- Incorrect since III does not convey the intended meaning.

- Option 3, Only I:

- Correct because I provides a complete and coherent sentence: "Even though I broke my arm during the game, I managed to score a goal."

- Option 4, II and III:

- Incorrect because neither II nor III properly connect the sentences.

- Option 5, None of these:

- Incorrect as option I is valid.
