Friendly Match Report 18 December 2005

We were up against the champions of the tournament ( JV FC). They were like a kampong team, meaning full of support from parents and families. I know they are a very good team, but to me its better that we lose today and make them over confident when they meet us. I have always preferred to be the underdogs.

In the first half, we were down by 3 goals. It was basically the defence fault. With the absence of Raimi and Reza and Fariq, the team played with one stopper and me as last man. Saw played as a stopper and he was totally outplayed by his opponent. As the team in the first half consisted of mainly trialists for the club, the midfield failed to support the back line and it was too much for me and Saw.

In the second half, the team was more stable with the inclusion of Fuad as defensive midfield and Fariq at left back. Though we did not score, the opponent failed to score either.

Overall it was a good match with a worthy opponent. Its time to go back to training.

Training will now be conducted every Tuesday and Thursday. Be there!!
