The Mighty Shuaidenamoji 2- Light BLues 2
Sunday 1 july 2007..
Shuaiji prepares for a match to regain some confidence after a humilliating 4-0 loss to SIM varsity team. However i assure you our opponents are no whipping boys.Pressed to our max and pushed to our limits , A draw was probably the best results as both teams were equally matched in many areas.
MATCH REPORT:
With our fullbacks back after a one match hiatus , zak installed back in center mid and (thankfully) a new and upcoming goalkeeper by the name of Benny. This was quite evidently the most balanced and talented shuaiji side to take to the field in the past few matches. Louis partnered Zak in the middle of midfield with JJ and kim Liang playing slightly ahead of them. The formation took on a different look in midfield , a wingless formation, with key player (the mean and nasty) Ah Beng as a target man and Ah li supporting. A change in formation suggested by Louis and approved by manager Guang zu for the match.It started surprisingly well as louis and zak held their own in midfield and the defence line pushing up as a collective unit. It was austondingly organized. SHuaiji atatcked well with long balls to beng to hold up waiting for the mid to support.
Howeevr halfway thru the 1st half, louis's naiveity playing in the center showed as he gave away dangerous fouls outside the penalty area. ( i was owned by the Duck rice ok.) The Light Blues summoned a viciously swerving free kick which slightly defected of beng's head and into the goal. The keeper had no chance.
Shuaiji finds themselves behind yet again.Their careless foul paid to its fullest extent. Then JJ, finding the wings not his favoured position changed wif law and shuaiji reverted to a winger formation. pressing hard once again, shuaiji laboured and dominated in search for a equalizer in the 1st half. From the left, law floated a free kick and beng brilliantly backheeled towards Ali. Ali had a chance for a sweet volley as the pass caught the defender totally unawaresbut contrived to scuff the ball. once again another wasted chance.
The central defence held up superbly, knowing their height disadvantage, they played a high line everytime we were in posession. Gerald and junsiong had hardly put a foot wrong the whole day and were unfortunate to find themselves behind. Complains throughout the team began ringing yet again of junjie's procrasination in his release of the ball and louis's positioning on the wing. surely an area which has to be ironed out soon in the next few matches.
The at the 40th minute mark, someone sent a brilliant ball Ali right in front of the goal and unfortunately his toepoke flew over the bar. Beng also had another chance nearing the end when a spectacular cross from the right was missed completely. Shuaiji clearly dominating play in the latter part of the 1st half... showing some intent for what was to come in the second.
2nd half. Law, suffering the misery of volunteering to sub himself out due to the conditions of his bowels made way for ah niao. the second half started less promisingly as shuaiji were on the backfoot as the opponents had two shots on target, on coming from a hearder resulting from a corner and a shot from one of theier attackers. Brilliant keeping from new keeper Benny had the shuaiji backline squirming in delight, this was surely the best performance by a keeper since farmer's import Liew Shi Xiong. seemingly goal bound shots were acrobatically denied by what seemed like grace from ballerinas with ogre proportions.
Foul throws dominated the day as the count probably reached double figures from shuaiji, cheaply giving away posession. with time ticking away and the attack desperate for a goal, kiam and beng manufactured wat seemed like a well worked set-piece. Brilliantly floated into the twelve yard box, beng broke the offside trap with only the keeper to beat. and with a sweet loft, ITS A GOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!! ala luis boa morte's last goal for west ham, it was brilliant finishing by what was until then, a misfiring shuaiji forward line.
The substitutions came, JJ for kim liang, whom for all his hard work and hard running, found himself neutralized by the opponent's left back. The opponents had rolling subs and they brought on an extremely speedy winger , exploiting shuaiji's lack of speed on the left. with good results too, as from a corner, within minutes of the equalizer, the defence failed to clear the ball in the penalty area, with substitute Bang one of the main culprits, the score was yet again shuaiji trailing 2-1.
with passion burning brightly in their bellies, shuaiji and their new invited players din drop their heads and pressed on for another equalizer. yet again the Kiam Beng combination almost paid dividence. another floated ball, dis time beng made a decoy run as Gearld made a lung busting run from defence to meet the ball, sadly his shot cld only make the side netting.
With time slowly ticking away. shuaiji abandoned the defence and the defenders, for all their combined height of 6 meters began searching for that equalizer. and with 5 minutes to go, Beng summoned what was to be a fantastic day in attack with a deft header, once again beating the offside trap and it was a GOOOOOOAAAAALLLLL!!!!!.
Today did not see much of the NY connection as Ah Li yet again cldn't find composure on his shots despite being in glorious positions. surely another area which needs improvement.
and with a few unpromising attacks to follow, the game soon came to and end. The result, despite pleasing neither team, was probably a fair result in terms of posession and ability.Surely a promising match for shuaiji, with the unearthing a brilliant keeper and zak's growing dominance in midfield and beng's stunning return of 2 goals. Ang and his motley crew of the "SHUAIJI BACK FOUR" once again proving size does not matter..
Man of the match: A toss up between Beng and Benny.If Benny shows up
for the next few matches and performs just a brilliantly, its needless to say,It should be him. But wif Beng Excelling ever so prominently in the role of target man after being so inspired by "Drogba". The award goes to him ( IF IT REALLY MEANS THAT MUCH TO U) Ang deserves special mention too, pity u're a defender..... strikers get all the glory. :s
Moan of the match: Personally it was the duck rice, Even the toilet bowl at AI din want to
swallow it... ( a word of advice to all, never eat a heavy meal 30 minutes
before a match, especially if ur position requires alot of running.)
Special mention: Bang, despite his blunder for the goal, provided touches nothing short of
exquisite..
surely kiam's 2 assist puts him up there for the MOM award. No? -kiam
a hat-trick of goals accompanied with yet another world peace-keeping performace. MOM no doubt belongs to Beng - lots of love
