We started the first 15mins with only 8 persons on the field, and had conceded 2 goals within this period. The opponents then loaned us 2 of their extra players, but we were still short in numbers. 10 vs 11.
We conceded another goal late in the 2nd half before Jeff and Boon joined in the squad to make it 11 with one of our guest players returning to the opposing bench. Mervin, who was goalkeeper earlier was then brought back in at the heart of the defence as the other guest player(Mr Kue) took into goal.
In the midst of reorganizing the side, another goal was conceded. As we settled, we drove forward in trying to reduce the score and Jack found a way through after some nice work down the left by Boon to make the score 1-4 at half time.
During the interval, a total reshuffling of the side was done. We were back in contention in the second half as we reduced the deficit further with another goal from Jack to make it 2-4.
But the understanding and corordination in play from the opponents was glaring as they gathered pace and scored from a corner before a 1 on 1 made it 2-6.
The spirit of the brave was still with us as we pushed to get another goal. But the final outcome remained intact as the refree blew the final whistle to set the Sun in the west.
Squad: Aston, Mervin, Marcus, Jeff, Lionel, Benny, Adrian, Jack(2), Jason, Boon.
Alittle note on the opponents:They were mainly made up of a former secondary school team players, and had been playing together for about 10+ years. They wear a light japanese blue top and white shorts.
