Our run continues...

We have won again!!!
Believe it or not, the once-proclaimed-to-be-losers-GYFC has risen from the ashes and broken our 8 game losing streak. Not only that, we are on a roll right now with a 4 match unbeaten run... What a turn of events.
We have now gelled as a team and have gone from strength. Though some attribute it to the new jersey, some say it's the Abdul Malek GK jersey, some say it's because Dave is giving us lousy opponents, it does not matter. Let's just hope that this streak continues for GYFC.

Highlights of today's match:

Final score: 4-2 (2-0)
Handicap before KO: +0.5 (because we have no subs today)
Handicap at KO: 0 (because our opponents looks overweight but the fact is we still do not have subs)
Referee: Dave
Venue: Old Police Academy
Time: 1530
Weather: Cloudy
Supporter/Physio: Suinan's gf. A pretty lady that has been here for the past 2 matches to grace our wins. However, her presence seems to cause some distraction to our centre back SUI Campbell.

Zhirui - ML

18min 1-0 : Own Goal but our opponent, headed into the net beyond their own keeper. ROYnaldo CLAIMS he put the defence under immense pressure

27min 2-0: Pinpoint cross from the right floats across everyone to the far post. ZI RUIberto heads the ball beyond the keeper for our 2nd goal. Our opponents are utterly humiliated.

51min 2-1: Opponent lets fly from 25m out. Ball goes into the top right corner. Lucky... Nothing but sheer luck.

58min 2-1: Opponent (named Patrick) gets 2 yellow cards in quick succession to get himself sent off. LOSER!!! But being a gracious team, we let them have another player come on in place of him. But only bcos he was a fat ass.

67min 3-1: VINCENZO Iaquinta receives the ball on the left and lets fly a curling shot that the keeper has no chance in reaching. The 2 goal margin is restored.

76min 3-2: Opponent springs the offside trap and bears down on goal on the right. He produces a shot that is just beyond our keeper's reach and goes in off the upright. LUCKY again!!! How lucky can they get? GYFC begins to wonder if lady luck has deserted us and wants us to lose.

83min: 4-2: A moment of magic from VINCENZO Iaquinta as he embarkes on a mazy run down the left, cuts in, and produces a Paul Konchesky effort to beat the keeper. The game is safely in the bag. After the match, VINCENZO claims that he intended to lob the keeper but the team decides that it looks more like a typical POHdolski effort.

Match of the match: It was thought to be a close fight between MAXi Rodriguez (for driving the midfield with his endless energy) and VINCENZO Iaquinta (for his 2 goals) but in the end, it turns out to be dark horse Jing Shen (simply for his commitment to being the keeper for the full game).

Of note: It was highly commendable for CSC and Fabio KOKnavarro to have completed the full match without being substituted (simply becos we had none) or getting carried off the pitch. CSC had a cramp towards the end but it was just a simple cramp, NOT MORE THAN CRAMP.

Our winning run goes on and on.....

Next weekend's fixture might be postponed due to ZI RUIberto and MAXi Rodriguez being on international duty with the Thai National team....
