Woodlands Sec, 1500 Hrs
YSOSRS FC 2 Purple Monkeys 3
(Santosh, Eugene)
One man to ruin it all
A healthy squad of 15 men gathered at woodlands secondary for the quarter-final clash. Gaffer sir moklex ferguson was unavailable due to unknown reasons and interim managers andre villas ws and syafiq conte stepped in into the fray. But sir moklex's pump, ball, tape, and scissors were greatly missed by the players.
With the likes of xavi ubai, dinietov and a certain neymar upfront it seemed to be a clear-cut game for the jokers. However the first minutes were tentative and the jokers struggled to grab a foothold of the game. It took a further turn for the worst when an early goal was conceded. Jokers were down 1-0.
Astute substitutions were made and the suddenly the jokers begin to impose themselves. Ronald-o, with an injection of pace, somehow managed to skip past a few of the purple monkeys and roll the ball onto Alvin-do. The ball was squared across the goal line and wonderboy santosh waste no chance to get the goal back. The jokers regained their confidence and many chances were created. Dinietov's glancing header was cleared by a desperate lunge at the goal line by the defender and Toshie's shot literally blasted the post. Half-time and the jokers were clearly having the upper hand.
Up to this point, the interim gaffer avws was having a superb game at the sideline. It should have been this way until the end. But it wasn't to be. Naive he was to sub himself in with about 20 minutes to go and immediately tables were turned. 2 soft goals were conceded from counter attacks, all stemming from mispasses by the interim gaffer. Confidence were low but the jokers were not accepting this cruel fate. A desperate fightback amounted to a goal by Eugene bale. It was a case of too little, too late. Players surging forward and a few goal line clearances later, the ref sealed the jokers fate with his final whistle.
All in all, a valiant effort by the guys. But bad avws! Bad bad avws.
