Final Score: Main Match 4
Francis Charles - 3
Matthew Lim - 1
Wei Li - 1
The game is considered a good test. We are actually able to attack and defend well and had decent chances that should have been converted on our side. The malay team had actually lesser chances and opportunities than us but they took their chances well.
Opponent Team Score Timings:
1st Half
1-0: OFFSIDE!!! But was it not? The ball was cleared long from the opponent half and there were actually 2 players offside, one was walking back, the other turned and attacked towards the long ball. All protests were in vain. Joh.Stead did a good block but it bounced over his body and a simple tap in.
2nd Half
2-0: A splitting through ball fed the forward through and M.Angelo kept up with him, jostling for the ball. Joh.Stead came out but dived to his left. The forward pushed the ball away to Joh.Stead's right and M.Angelo couldn't slide in time to block the shot.
3-0: Corner to opponent. Joh.Stead could only punch the ball as he has to cope with a defender and a forward trying to head the ball infront of him. The ball lands to an opponent who half volleys the ball straight into the net, right hand bottom post area.
