I think your exposure is good.
My problem is I don't really know what the photo is about. Is there a story? I don't understand the title, and the kids in the foreground have their backs to the camera. The background people are standing in a clump... what's going on? I gather that the girls are looking at the boys, but the boys don't seem involved in the same story here, & if it's just about the kids, then the people in the background are a little distracting...

All right! It is necessary to know a little history. In the foreground, young boys hooligans (look at their clothes, it's a little torn, steam coming from his mouth, as the smoke ... and the girls with the "other world" they are afraid of them, so look this (funky and tried their push off) .......... Although you're right, must not have a picture of the international division, he should understand it .... I had more girls to the front ... Thanks to your help and comments, "truth has triumphed." ..

It just goes to show how we're all different, because I like images that make me think or invent wee stories as to what's going on, because it's not obvious at first glance.

For this one, I thought the tallest of the lads, had forgotten to zip up his flies or something, the way the two taller lasses of three were looking over.

I do agree the crowd scene in the background is a little distracting, but there was no round that for this shot. Perhaps a half inch crop on the top edge and a little burning in would help.

All in all I like it, something different, well done.

Ah, I get it.. it is the "girls are always attracted to bad boys" theme. I need another coffee to get the gears spinning enough to figure this one out.
