Winning the season opener just feels great!

Started off with one costly mistake from our team causing the opponents to lead 1-0.
Our team had never play together for quite a long time, so no surprises for our errors.
But the fact that we still got the touch and can play quite well is a a deserving surprise.
Minutes after we had went down, shafie who played as a right-mid then, gave our team a hope as he equalized.
Subsequent attacks saw shakur connecting well with charles in the left wing, whom released a low cross straight to haikal's feet.
Haikal then made no mistake and tap in an easy goal for us to lead 2-1.
However when we thought we could hold to the lead, the opponents scored from a long shot giving them a 2-2 scoreline.
It was attacks after attacks, corners after corners and eventually goals after goals.
Charles and hazim claimed the next 2 goals, giving a 4-2 lead to ashburton.
Just before the interval, the opponents once again tried to score pass izhaq.

HALF TIME: 4-3 to us.
During the break, syafiq gave a very good motivational talk to the team.
He was rumoured to be our new captain as he has the best and most experience coming from a TKSS and MJC school team background.
He told us that we can trash the opponent as the defence didn't have much to do in first half.
It all depends on the forwards to make something magical out of it.

So the 2ND half starts with the opponents handing a long shot over to izhaq.
Luckily izhaq made no mistakes and saved it comfortably.
Second half saw more attacks from the opponents and that make our goal area vulnerable.
They kept taking shots from afar and eventually 3 to 4 goals went in.
However we were determined to win and did not wish to let our team down.
So we fought back from losing 7-6 to winning 9-6.
The earlier two goals after first half was scored by haikal and hafiz.
Haikal as usual tapped in an easy goal and hafiz scored as he went up for corners.
It was quite tyco.
And one of the opponents goal was quite controversial as the ball had actually went over the bar, but they assumed it went pass the hole at the top left hand corner of the net.
The other three goals contributed by hanif and charles was brilliant if not marvelous.
Both players took their chances as they just try to shoot from afar.
Hanif scored two goals through long-shots from the middle of the pitch.
Charles however made a lob from the left wing side of the field.
Their goals had save the team from shame and brought us to glory.

FULL TIME:9-7
We are currently top of the new 2008 season table, with likes of Manchester United, ac Milan and Barcelona below us.
HAHA. JUST JOKING.
That's quite all for now.
See you guys around next time for more heart-thumping action in our matches.
