Match Highlights

FIRST Half


-HOT-Tempered start to the match!!! Within minutes of the kick off, tackles were flying in and the referee had no choice but to dished out some yellow cards to control the situation.

-A quick counter-attack down the left flank saw Samuel taking the ball past 3 players before chipping over the GK. However, the ball rebounded off the bar but fell nicely for Hak Liang who after shaking off the defender, placed it into the corner of the net! 1-0

-A cross in from the right was flicked on by their defender to Raymond! His powerful volley however lands the ball well wide of goal.

-A quick throw-in to Raymond was followed by a cross into the ball! The ball was headed in in spectacular fashion but by the opposition after some good work by Valentino who gave the defender too much of a problem! 2-0 up!

-Just before the break, a cutback by Valentino was received by Samuel who instead of having a 1st time shot, decided to take the ball round their defenders only to get intercepted after the 4th player!

SECOND Half

-Right after the restart, we were back into attacking mode! Valentino released Kenny down the right but his cross failed to be met by Samuel and a glorious chance was wasted!

-The lack of concentration result in the opponent sneaking behind the defence to put one pass Ka Shing. 2-1

-After that wake-up call, we went in search for more goals but was dealt a blow as an unlucky deflection off one of our players denied Ka Shing the save and the opponent had a simple tap-in to level the score! 2-2

-That was how it stayed as the remaining attacks saw many offside calls.

-Man-of-the-match: Hak Liang! First goal for the team!

Match Highlights
FIRST Half
-
After some passes within the midfield, the ball was release out to the right for Valentino. Taking the ball pass the defender, his cross was met by Kenny and with a glancing header, we're 1-0 up!

-After taking the lead, we were pegged back to defending for the rest of the half, allowing the opponents another 3 goals!

-A corner from the left by Samuel was headed into goal by Joel but the referee blew for an infringement and the goal was disallowed!

-A long punt forward to the right was again received by Valentino and he passed the ball back to the on-rushing Vincent only for the ball to be blasted high up into the fence!



SECOND Half
-Within minutes of the restart, the opponent scored as a perfectly delivered cross was headed
down by their striker for their teammate to slot into an empty net!



-ATTACK was the only solution and we did all we could! The addition of Sheng Jie resulting in a fresh pair of legs ensured we attack!

-Through balls was send for the strikers but the delivery was hard as the opponent's GK managed to get to the ball first each time.


-A foul on Kenny just outside the box resulted in a free-kick. Without waiting for the whistle, Samuel send the ball just above the bar!

-GOAL! Or so we thought so. A corner-kick from the left by Samuel ended up in goal by once again we were to be denied by the referee as he blew for an unknown infringement!

-A long ball forward by Joel found Sheng Jie and as he went one-n-one with the goalkeeper, his shot rebound off the post and was cleared by the defenders!


-We had another few more chances but we cant convert. Instead, our chances were chances for the opponents too as they went on the counter attacks to score 4 more goals to condemn us to our heaviest defeat ever! 1-8!

-Man-of-the-Match: Valentino Khoo
