5TH win.. 1st 07/08 pre season match

After a long break for members of ashburton fc,(mostly due to the majority who's taking o/a levels) we kicked the new pre-season friendly with a 5-o win over skills that kills.(tkss np sec3)
Ashburton fc has made a slight improvement and progress in the futebol world.

The match started out evenly and there was a tough fight and competition from both teams..
The referee however was abit kayu..
The 1st half seems like it will b a goalless encounter..
However in the dying minutes of the first half, Johnathan Kum, our new loan signing, shot for the goal..
Despite using a weaker left foot, the ball deflected our opponents defender and it went in the net, sending their goalie the wrong direction..

HALF-TIME BREAK!..

And then the 2ND half begins..
Things are getting much more exciting then..
This was due to majority of our players getting cramps on the pitch and had to be stretched out of the field occasionally..
However, although we were cramping, we managed to score much more goals this half.
Haikal, our star striker and maybe the lone striker for that day made it 2-0, 3-0,
4-0..
Making him our evergreen top scorer as he made his hat-trick this time round..
Shafie, our "captain" attacking mid then scored another goal to make it 5-0 to ashburton..
His goal was fabulous as he shot from the edge of the penalty box from the right..
Following the shot, he shouted "cramp". Oh what an example for a celebration.
HAHA.
Charles played left wing this game and he contributed much to haikal's goals due to his superb accurate crosses.
However he did not help the left back and he needs to improve on that.
Other new on loan signings such as RAUNAQ and Zairil played quite well too.
And our stand-in keeper, Farshad was fortunate enough not to let in any goals this time round..
His first clean sheet perhaps.

After the final whistle was blown, we shook hands with the opposition and the referee too, before paying the sum we had to pay for winning the match..
Here was the lineup for ashfc:

Farshad;
Syafiq, Raunaq, Syariff, Shakur;
'Ammar;
Zairil, Charles;
Shafie, Johnathan;
Haikal.

More update on ashburton futebol next time round.
Goodbye!
