The First 3 Games

Our first 3 games together have brought about mixed results, but at the same time, a sense of hope and encouragement. As it now stands, the results now read Played 3 - W1 D1 L1.

GAME 1
Dressed in red, our only victory so far was played on Mother's Day, 13 May 07, 9am at Blk 367 Yishun Ring Road.

As it turned out, the domination of the opposition (blue) was rewarded handsomely with 3 goals. 2 in the first half by WanYuan and then Kai Loon, who also netted his second and the third goal in the second half.

The final result was a 3-nil victory that marked the birth of Team Sunday.


Squad: Boon, Marcus, George, Aston, Mervin, Adrian, Jeff, Steven, Jason, Kai Lun (1), Anthony, Jack, Wanyuan (2)



GAME 2
Location: Nan Hua Sec Sch.
Date/Time: Sunday, 27 May 07, 9am
Colour: White

The opposition (red) in this game had a similar make up, but they probably had a lower average age.

They were well balanced in all departments. The only exception was their inability to control the centre of the park, and were by-passing the centre midfield during the game with long balls and lots of wing play.

We held on in a battle that tested our resilience, the highlight being the penalty save by Steven that contributed to a deserved 0-0 draw.

Good work Guys!


Squad: Steven, Aston, George, Mervin, Jeff, Adrian, Jack, Jason, Benny, Marcus, Ricky



GAME 3
Location: Tanglin Sec. Sch.
Date/Time: Sunday, 10 June 07, 9am
Colour: White

This was a 2nd leg encounter with the team we played in Game 2.

The familiarity between both teams had little seperating us until an untimely lack of concentration in the defence cost us a goal.

We were 0-1 down at half time. However, the fight was still on, and our control of the second half showed the determination of the players. But the Gods were not with us this day, and we couldn't get the elusive equalizer.

Perhaps next time when we play each other again, things will be different.


Squad: Benny, George, Seah, Kai Lun, Jeff, Mervin, Adrian, Ryan, Jack, Jason, Boon, Marcus
