Bedok - The title really says it all. Despite a healthy turnout, the Emeralds were forced to play in a makeshift 8-a-side match as the proposed venue was deemed unavailable at the very last minute. In its place, the match against Hasan's Cousin's Team (NSSL?) was played in a field with dimensions of 90 by 90 yards.
Sparing the details, the match pretty much resembled a typical astroturf knock-around match of the good old RI days. Match ended with a 6-5 defeat of the Emeralds. Scores aside, what good that can be said of the match was the tight, close passing of the team in a pretty fast-paced match. What the team needs to improve on now is cutting out those long cross-field passes as well as the through balls in the centre.
The Emeralds now look forward to their upcoming match against Arsenal F.C.* next week.
Team Sheet: Sufian16, Farhan, Huzer, Adil, Zarir, Hidayat (Firdaus' Brother), Firdaus, Shaiful, Dedi, Syarif, Khairul, Hasan, Adib, Ashrof.
Quote Of The Day:
"Where are all the girls?" - Player "F", as he came back into the field after retrieving the ball in the carpark. When the team was down 6-4.
