1st up, we finally break the streak! Ended the season on a high! Good job! Weather was humid and it looks like it’s going to rain any minute. Our opponents look intimidating (as usual).

A couple of changes to the side as Jack’s friend fill in the right mid role while Simon slots in at left back pushing JH up to left mid. Roy partner CJ in the middle of the park. We started off on the stronger foot with JH straight away charging down a back pass to keeper, with an empty net at his mercy Collin’s shot was blocked by some last ditch defending. After a few probing through balls finally one make it onside for Joel to put in the 1st goal of the game. We pinned them back for the most of the 1st half with our 2 battling center mids and score the 2nd eventually from Joel, assisted by Collin; his 1st ever assist. Unfortunately, they took their chance on a lucky break get one back before half-time.

They decided to attack us in the 2nd half and put more attacking players in. But we managed to get the crucial 3rd goal with some nice work by Joel down the right, leaving his marker to cramp while he squares the ball to Collin for an easy tap in. Then things start going downhill with Roy’s knee sprained. JH was the one and only sub at that time so he had no choice but to play through the pain in his aggravated injured hip in the 1st half. They were throwing everything inside the box by then and got a 2nd goal but we held on and secured the victory to end the losing streak.

We found out that Sean and Wee Hian have a great understanding in their center defensive partnership. Roy is good at center mid which provides another option. Jack’s friend at right mid looks comfortable enough. Simon has yet to find his best position.

Joke of the day – Wee Hian kicking the ball into the construction yard.

Winter break till Jan, see you guys at bishan park!
