Match 19 and Match 20: Blues in the Eleven

Following the receiving of our Jerseys and taking on stronger opponents these days, we suffered 2 blowing mishaps in the next two games.

Our 19 match saw us strutting our stuff with my ex-colleague Allister who came with a team of youthful people who is super enthu and seemingly endless amount of energy. However, it was a good Free Kick From Rixian who send it over to Taran who connected with it and coverted it with perfect execution.

Chai went on to put us 2-0 up. However, there were some confusion at the back allowing the opponents to put 2 past us to be at 2-2. However, a Zong Hui Converted penalty and A exquisite strike from Zhen Qing send us 4-2 up and Zong Hui Added one in the end but was met by the equally competitive group of youngsters who did not stop attempting to attack and manage to pull themselves to a 1 goal deficit before they capitalise on our mistake to put themselves level.

Match 20 was a complete display of overrun from a very strong group of players who are rumoured to be playing professional soccer. They took the lead easily within the first 10 mins and extended their lead with a powerful header. But chai brought us back with a wonderstrike from the left and one leading on to a rixian free kick taran latch combo to equalise 2-2.

However, the opponents decided to put their strongest players and they started scoring freely with powerful headers and rocket shots before long we found ousrselves having to chase a 5 goal deficit. Down 7-2, the players are also all jaded due to the intense physical demand to play in such situations and extreme heat and all of us crumbling to the fatigue. Before the game ended, we stamped our mental resilience by reducing with a beauty strike from jumain. However, all was lost cause as we found ourselves overwhelmed by their simple and effective total football.

Its okay to face such strong opponents and get wallop. It tells where we stand and shows us how actually we show ply our trade. Please do not feel demoralise as the only way to improve is to get defeated and in the midst we grow up and learn.

Lets all hope for a good match next week.

Your Co-ordinator.

Match 18: 31/05/09 @ FuHua Sec

Finally we manage to don our new jersey and with a new jersey we have a new tactic this time round playing a 4-3-3 tactic.

Being Still unfamiliar with the new tactic we struggled to understand how it is being played but with the capabilities of our players they are more than competent to fit into any tactic. However, we allowed them to put 1 into our net. Our defence of Ah Fat, Zhen Quan, Tian Jun, daniel and Jin have proved to stand out in the occassion when needed.

Ta ren rixian and jumain lead the pack in attack and ke jang with zong hui and zhen qing probe their defence with their tireless run. However this game was marred with un-gentlemanly tackles from opposing team that cause a few injuries within our team. However we stood our front and kept our cool to play our own game.

In the second half, zong hui was tripped inside the penalty and he converted cooly from the spot. Chai came on later in the second half and showed what he can do but was unable to put us up with a few attempts on goal but fail to find net...

It wasn't long when Ke Jang found himself dribbling down the flanks and doing some of his trademark flip here flip there and manage to get pass the keeper and lobbed the keeper to put us 2-1 up.

Another sensational come back for the whinners again...

However like a few pointers pointed out by our players..... We need to accustom ourselves with the new tactic and our play recently have turned stagnant.. we need to up our game a bit...

Probably we might want to arrive at the pitch a little bit early for more warm ups and a few rounds of Monkey before we start... at least we can gain more composure on the ball...

See you guys... in a few hours time...:)
