BPFC 1-1 Orange Budget
Scorer: Alan
Assist: BX
Few of us were carrying injuries and illness, but we fought for a comeback. Things got even worse when Xing did an Owen very early on, pulling his hamstring and had to be taken off.
The play in first half was totally unpenentrative. We were losing balls in midfield area like nobody's business, tempers were flaring, esp from a certain number 10 who shouted at our own men umpteenth times. But true enuf, from a centreback position, we were just like trying our luck, it doesnt seem like anything will happen.
Even tho they had more possession, Jackson hardly got anything to do until the goal. Caught too flat and miscomm, a good header from their striker lobbed the ball over the onrushing Jackson. Just for the first time this year, we were trailing at half time.
Like Yun said, first few minutes of second half we were equally crap. But as the game go on, we began to get a better foothold. Song's excellent pass found Alan with an open goal. A bouncing ball it was, he whacked it against the crossbar when it was easier to put it to the back of the net.
We had waves and waves of attacks thereafter. Im sure those on the pitch can feel the adrenaline rush and the desire to win, at least i did. Most of us were running like dogs, chasing and putting pressure, hoping to get the equaliser we so much desire for. We were hungry for the goal. and it was a collective effort i must say.
And the goal did come. A throughball from BX put Alan free on goal, this time round, he placed his shot and equalised. The best word to describe my feeling then:
"YEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeAAAAAAAA!!!!!"
1-1. But we were not stopping from there. A nice interplay saw BX feeding Shengjie on goal after excellent shielding from goalscorer Alan on the defender. Toe Poke, Zham, place, whatever except an extra touch, its probably at the back of the net. But no. He took that extra touch. It fell to the keeper, and then needlessly sliding in on the keeper and that nearly resulted in a brawl from both sides.
First timer centreback Ang was lucky not to concede the penalty after bringing down Mr Singlet in the box. The fall was deeemed a little too theatrical by the referee who booked him for diving. Well, cant blame the ref, the entire team thot he dived too besides shuheng who actually saw it.
Tho it aint easy game, but i enjoyed it.
Alan made full use of the chance to go to the top of the scorer's chart in Yuhao's and PY's absence. BX went on to extend his lead on the top of the assist chart, 2 away from the nearest competitor Oon. On the uglier side, Shengjie has joined Kai and Shuheng on 2 yellow cards.
Team fund: +$59 (Nxt game likely to be a free game)
The board has decided to veto Steven's MOTM last week because only 4 pple voted. Even tho Steven got half of the votes, that pathetic 2, because of a small sample size, it was deemed to be an unfair test. As a result, last week's game as no MOTM.
The red uncles might have gathered their firepower for the rematch, lets not take them too lightly. We must win the game handsomely as this will be a farewell match for beefy attacker Song who leaves for Istanbul on the tuesday after the game.
