1-5 and then 6-1
Due to the regular convectional rain in the afternoons, last week's game against Raffles JC team was cancelled and BPFC maintained their 100% unbeaten record.
And so we wished.
Truth was that we succumbed to our first defeat of the year, and a really heavy one. BPFC was whacked real hard, being exposed in all areas for the first time. Outmuscled, outpaced, outplayed. We lost almost all aerial battles and the ball hardly moved out of our half. Their left winger time and again made full use of his pace to run riot at our defence, scoring 4 goals along the way and made our defenders looked non existent.
"Our defenders are lacking match experience and it takes time for us to learn and improve." Xing
End of the day, the scoreline reads RJC 5-1 BPFC. And so which hero scored the one?!
Ang scored his first goal for the club and added yet another kuku goal to his soccer career. He prefers to call it the striking instinct, being in the right place at the right time. Playing at a right midfield role, he perservered and closed down the opponent all the way into the penalty box. His determination was paid off when opposing defender was given no space for a proper clearance as he was charged down by speedy winger Ang. The ball hit the shin of Ang and fell to the back of the net. Excellent finishing. Fortuitous goal? I beg to differ as we should always look at things from other angles to gain new perspectives.
Look at the traits in red. It makes us wonder why Ang has never represented Singapore before.
Alright back to the game at Kranji Sec.
Ang and Kel returned for club duty after representing Faculty of Science for soccer in the morning. Just let me vent my frustrations since i don have a personal blog. It was heartbreaking moments for the 2 BPFC veteran defenders as they missed out narrowly on a spot in the semi finals. Level on points, level on head-to-head record, level on goal difference, it all boiled down to the goals for component. The last game between SDE and Arts proved decisive as any score lesser than 3-0 in a 30mins game would meant that Science would advance. Life sucks and it wasnt meant to be. SDE 3-0 Arts. WTF.
Goalkeeper Kai withdrew from the team right before kickoff as he was cruelly tied down to school work at NTU. It left the team with no goalkeeper and 11 outfield players. Kelvin bravely volunteered for the role even though that position was fiercely contested by Ang as well as both of them were already suffering from cramps.
Opponents were a sea of green yet again. With all of them donning the TEAM TJC colours. It feels like we have just registered ourselves in this year's Nationals A divisions, last week playing RJC and this week playing TJC.
And so kel started in goal and there werent much changes in other departmens of the team. We started the game with no substitutes though Jack and Ali did come later in their volleyball attired with no boots as they had only intended to be spectators i guess.
The game started fast and furious and Yuhao scored within 5 minutes. Making his presence a nuisance in the opposing defence, he managed to win the ball and created for himself a one on one chance with the keeper which he then converted. 1-0.
Kel also gave the team an early scare after he dribbled the ball out of the box when instead he could have simply used his hands to hold on to the ball.
Not too long after, Steven's curling inswinging corner deceived the Keeper's hands and it again fell to Yuhao to put it to the back of the net. 2-0 BPFC.
You sometimes wonder why Mark Hughes and his Abu Dhabi counterparts are willing to spend 32.5 million on Robinho when they could have paid just 17.5 million more to pry Yuhao away from BPFC. For obvious sporting reasons, Gaffer Ang would definitely not hesitate to accept the deal. If thats the case, our team fund of $47 would then read $50,000,047. How impressive is that.
It was brilliant play from BPFC throughout as we dominated the game and converted our chances.
"You want to go attack the corner?" - Shengjie
"You go lah, I don want." - Ang
Ang's high level of benovelence proved crucial and another inswinging corner from steven was headed into the goal by Shengjie. Imagine the conversation changing to "you stay back, i go up". Then Ang would have gotten his second goal for the club.
Xing then scored a final goal in the first half after latching onto a long ball from Shuheng. Running down just at a speed slightly slower than the speed of light, you sometimes wonder if you should apply Einstein's equations of general relativity on Xing. He burst into flames and later on blasted an unstoppable drive that rocked the net. The field warden should be glad after the game that luckily there isnt any hole in the net. 4-0 at half time.
BPFC slacked off in the second half and the opponents saw plenty of the ball. They could have got one back early on when an open goal was missed by their attacker after an impressive stand-in keeper had attempted to punch the cross away in an acrobatic dive. They soon got a goal back to make the score 4-1 though the referee admitted after the game that the opponents were offside. So why did he allow the goal? How i know sia.
Ang then decided to sub himself out for Jackson as he was at the point where every single move will result in a cramp. This subsitution proved to be crucial later on.
BingXian's lobbing corner proved too much to handle for the TJCians as it fell to PengYong who slotted the ball home with the inside of his foot. 5-1.
It was again BingXian's assist for the 6th as Jackson's debut as an outfield player ended in a goal despite being on the pitch for only about 5 minutes. He converted the corner after a run in saw him totally unmarked. It just goes to show how much he had studied striker's movements during corners during corners. So much so that he is now able to replicate these movements and make himself useful when playing outfield.
And again, imagine the Gaffer didnt make this move to sub himself. It could have been Ang's goal.
And hence the scorers for this game should read:
Yuhao -2
Xing -1
Pengyong -1
Ang -2
hahaha.
Kelvin has now been named 3rd choice goalkeeper of BPFC after an impressive performance in between the posts. His sheer presence kept the opponents at bay as they didnt even dare to take shots. 3 cheers to the man of the moment, Kelvin Lin.

The fund now has a positive SGD47 after today's collection of fees. The club would also like to send a gentle reminder to soon-to-be PTE LIM HONG YUN for the owing of $5 for the game at bukit Timah field nearly 2 months ago. We hope you can find sufficient money to pay up soon.
How much is a Mikasa ball btw?
Also take note that a site hit counter has been added on your right!
