Team Goat 4   STAR CF 4

YES! Its time for us to stop living in the dream and starts waking up from it! Today saw us put an end to our winning streak. It was really a bad feeling for the team because we all knew that we could have easily won it today! Now it is close to the end of the season and the points on the table is not looking very pleasing for the team in red. With 5 games left and now on par (games) with league leaders Zespol, we are still trailing 2 points and the remaining games that we are going to play is not going to be a breeze. With Star CF, Thunder, Zespol, Swee Swee 1 and VNPNUS to face us in the upcoming weeks it is definitely going to be a tough road ahead for us!

Right now (no disrespect to other teams) it looks like there are only down to 5 teams chasing for the title namely Thunder, Swee Swee, Zespol, Tour d'France and Us. We are still to face 3 of them who are going for it and these 3 games would be crucial for us. So i would really wish all key players to be present for the last 5 games if not it would be pretty hard for us to push the converted division 1 trophy! We have also played all the teams in Division 1 and we should have already know what are their strengths and weakness so in each of the upcoming games we will have to tackle those weakness and make their strength weak!

To the game....

Goal!!!!! yes it was just 1 min from kick off and a goal has been scored but it was from Star CF after a mis-kick by Sean from left back which gave opp the ball to drive into the box and put a shot to me.I parried it but the punch was not hard enough and dropped to the other side of the goal to let the another player have an easy tap in. Speeding up, a battle in midfield was formed everyone was flying around trying to get the ball and kiong managed to find his way to the ball. Faking left and right to avoid the defender, kiong puts a left legged pass down the middle for Jackson and yes a cool tapped in by our captain again. 1-1!

Not so long after Jackson's goal, Team Goat's goal was under threat again but Liang got in with a crucial tackle and won the ball. Running up, he made a lob passed to Kiong and the opp centre back was too slow to react with the situation resulting to an easy tap in for kiong. 2-1 and 1st half ended.

2nd half was pretty much a mess-up situation where 5 goals were scored in this half. 2 long throw in have helped Star to get 2 easy header on target and into the net resulting in a change of scoreline. From a game we were leading, we were actually losing. But Yiwen with his new pair of boots reacted quickly to the situation and was in the right place at the right time when a free kick was swung in. Getting the rebound he fired the ball into the net. 3-3

Here comes the mess up part. Star was awarded a free-kick and the ball came in in-swinging and WeiMing (we all now know it was u!!!) push a striker who was going for the ball. Penalty! As i could not do much to avoid the goal it was 4-3 to Star. But soon after Yiwen Equalised again with a corner at the exact spot where he scored his 1st goal. 4-4

Many chances were created by us but all did not came fruitful. Many free-kicks, corners and 1 on 1 chances were wasted. Not to mention, Jack who have the last kick of the game who almost went in. It is just one on these days that we just do not have the luck. But i still feel that this game came just in time to wake us up from the dream as we might be getting a little complacent from winning 4 games in a row. With this draw, i hope everyone would be on their toes and more effort could be put into the next 5 games to help us secure the title!

MOTM: Yiwen

Need i say more? By playing 30mins in the game, he has shown his goal scoring prowess by scoring 2 goals and what was important was his ability to be at the right place at the right time to tap all the ball into the net! Kudos to you and u definitely deserved it. Like i said before, beware all Player of the Season contender, Yiwen is BACK!
