Ex-RV 3-0 BPFC
Lets start with the brighter things of the game. After a one year lay-off, Song returned to the pitch and started playing football again, despite playing cautiously. He 10-timed his previous playing minutes for BPFC after his introduction today on the 84th minute. It is also the first time that we saw a record attendance of 18 players, the only player missing out was unsettled left back Joel. Kai also made a Vidic clearance that drew jaw dropping comments from the bench. He stuck his boot right in the air to volley away a first time dangerous aerial ball.
We lost and we deserve to lose 3-0. In addition to what Yun has said, I just want to add that when we are losing, impatient attacks like today is not going to bring us anywhere. We all knew we were trying our luck and the goal wudnt come, though song yee came close to pulling one back. Perhaps we need some strategy when we are trailing and play more calm football.
It wasnt a disastrous game, because honestly, this is how we play every game just that we were punished today. And deservingly punished. Everyone just wanted a piece of the attack in the second half.
"I thought i was the striker but there are so many pple higher up front than i am" - Song
"What happen to your team? I was disappointed with your centre mid." Referee Devan
The defence was always seen with 3 at the back but there was not instructions to switch to a back 3 at all.
All in all, we had no shape and were waiting to die. Also, we need to cut down our over reliance on GX to control the game. The team just fell apart when our only 2 central midfielders left the pitch. It was like Man U against Barca, you just know that man u aint gonna create anything for that night.
Well, blame it on the bigger field, the numerous substitutions, at the end of the day, what we can do is just to keep playing and improve along the way, and hopefully, we don lose the joy we started out playing as a team and continue to play down the years, like the age of the teams that played after us.
Next game will be against them, the red team which Yun played for. 20th June 3pm at Yusof Ishak. See you there.
*Singapore pools had an all win because there was no option to vote for no goal. Will update team stats and finance the next time. I believe we have broken out of deficit and the finances are looking green again.
