Wed FC received a thrashing but ok mah!

KL Wed fc received a real thrashing today after Kajang Africans dominated play for much of the time.

Clear instructions was given by coach cum player Waynaldo to defend en-mass and exert pressure once they cross over the midfield line. Things got of well initially but off a through pass their left winger easily slotted the first goal after some 5 minutes of play. Undaunted, the defence line marshaled by Bullet Lee effectively closed down every gap and chances the Kajang team has. They ended up resorting to long range shooting which did not threaten Eric much. Wed FC could have equalised in the closing stage of 1st period when Dive Master Jason Lim let fly an American football style field goal in his attempt to shoot. 1-0 it ended.

Second period saw the introduction of President Long together with Boss Jason and Kepong Siong. The floodgate really opened up in this period as mistake after another saw Kajang African scored 4 more goals. As the juncture, a special mention to the official returned of our long lost son , Zitan Tan. Zitan was there to replaced fellow ACL Club member Waynaldo Lee mid-way through the second period. It has been 2 long year absence from football action for Zitan. Fireworks were exploding here and there signalling the return of the prodigal son. It was indeed a very touching scene and i thought i saw a few teary eyes around me or was it the huge dose of sweats dripping down the forehead of my eyes???

Zitan was quickly involved in some action and a few fake jump and header here and even a 20 meter bust down the right flank saw his made an unsuccessful cross. He has definitely not lost his competitiveness!

Third period started with us behind 0-5. With Bullet decided to call it a day, Gaga Sia and new partner Luan Luan Jao stand strong in the heart of defence. Although they did let in a goal, their partnership certainly need to be seriously considered for our next game. Who knows, this will free up Bullet thus allowing him to finally play his dream position of "freemen".

Eventually, we lost 6-0 but hey, this is not bad at all, our worst was a 9-0 thrashing earlier this year! Half a dozen only mah! As for others who read this piece, this Sunday marked the beginning of our Airplane league in Agro Bank. Manager will be Alan and Lingam. They will give you a call for match details.

Alan, do your work man! Show us what you got!.

African Nation Cup month

Well, April month was the month of African Nation cup for KL Wednesday FC. And why do i say that? For the obvious reason that we have play 4 different team of African ethnic background.

The first was against the Help Uninversity, followed by Serdang Africans, LimKokWing University and then yesterday Red Munich. Guess what, it wasn't surprise that we loss despite putting up a fighting performance. It was simply a case of David vs Goaliath for us. Regardless of the score (which was quick significantly big margin, average 4 goals a game with only the first game we lost by 1-3), we were outplayed in terms of skill and speed. The only department we easily outmatched them was our talks. Haha.

The old guys was just complaining to me why the hack we kept organizing matches against these kind of opponents, where we were simply dominated by them. Well, my kayu friends, it is now very difficult to find teams to play and when i realized we can easily get so many African teams, why not i save the trouble to make so many calls?

For a panadol relief to those who have develop African phobia, we have now managed to organize a game with MIB for next Wednesday. So, no more excuse that you can win. OK Kayu?

Wednesday 1-0 Ipoh "Not" Veteran

It turned out that either our friend ah Ong was blurred or the opponent purposely misled us on their age. What to be expected as a friendly between veteran players became a young vs mature game. Yes, we are not old enough to be called old..in pornographic movies term, we are deemed to be "mature".

The slight drizzle at Kajang did not dampen our spirit for a great work out. By the time i reached there, we already have 11 very eagered "mature" guys wanted to play. Despite the fact that on the other end of the pitch we saw a bunch of young, fit looking guys warming up for the game, we continued to do our routine hisap rokok, blow water talk, all the while waiting for the refs to turn up.

The pitch condition is bad and dangerous to "mature" players. But what to do, we have reached there, might as well continue lah..

All in, the summary of the game was this: while the opponent seemed much faster, they lacked ideas on how to attack. As for us, we lacked the speed but compensated with good brain. So the game was a sea-saw battle concentrating major part of the on field action in the middle part of the pitch. Our only hope of taking the lead was wasted when Luan Luan Jao's John header found it wasy to the goalpost. Other than that, not much action.

One note to the game is the injury sustained by twin ah Chuen, he was injured when he wrong stepped himself and fell painfully on his left knee. He was in a lot of pain and had to be carried off. Initial suspicions could be his ligament or meniscus. We pray for speedy recovery for ah Chuen and will miss his service in the midfield.

The only goal of the match came off a combination of quick passes and intelligent thinking starting from ah Bao who pass to Waynaldo, who then whacked in a quick pass to Alan Lau, who then cleverly sent in a well weighted pass to Willy. Willy used his muscle power well to waived off the on rushing defender and scored in a one on one situation.

Here is the field report.

Friendly game at Kajang Stadium

There will be a friendly this Sunday night at Kajang Stadium against a IPOH veterean team. See u guys there.

KL Weds 0 - 0 JLJ

As usual, our young opponent who's average is 23 came at 4pm and were already started to warm up. Fyi, JLJ is currently playing in the top division of the KLFA league and has qualified to the Quarter final round. There were about 22 of them in attendance. Before our match started, a slight drizzle help to cool off the weather and ground making the ground a bit too soft.
We were equally ready for a big match as well and the new look team, led by newly SELF appointed coach a.k.a The Special One , Waynaldo was there to drill the players into top notch condition both physically and mentally. The emphasis from the 4-5-1 formation was apparently to absorb the expected waves of attacks from JLJ and relying on fast counter attack to score. Ball possession with patient build up were the keys to succeed in this game. The players were all motivated after hearing the pep talks from the special one and were eager to go out there and achive a good result.
The match started with JLJ coming to attack our defense line with venom. However, thanks to the teamwork and fighting spirit displayed, our guys were doing very good to contain them. In fact, we were equally dangerous whenever there is a chance to attack. Long man upfront Kenny Dog-lish was working his ass off giving chase to every ball like a mad dog. His display truly inspire his compatriots to work harder to close down on any gaps or space. JLJ found our defense too hard to break down and were only relying on long range shooting for luck. Certainly no luck for them and keeper Eric were having a somewhat easy time just looking for the ball to went too high/too wide off the goalmouth. 1st period ended 0-0.
2nd period resumed with the same script and our president shouted within a minute of play for substitution. We thought who made him angry and wanted to change so fast? Well, well, well, apparently the old joint of Tailoong got misaligned and causing him needed massage treatment from Pusat Kesihatan KL Wed FC in Seri Kembangan. Tailoong went off and Soonteck came in. We continued to play well as a very cohesive side and JLJ could do nothing to score. We have more chances to score in this period but several chances were wasted due to poor finishes and hesitation to shoot.
3rd periodl was the same old story as above and we managed to end with 0-0. Post match statistic from Gaga Sia indicated our total possession was 51% as compare to JLJ's 49 only.
The guys quickly wash up and head straight for our tema annual dinner at Sg Long..and what a night it was. Certainly great news for those going to Hangzhou in May. More reports on this trip to come..



Attendance: Wayne (coach), Jason (manager), Loong (play 1 minute), Biawak/Bullet, Xiam (the other biawak), LLJ, Bao, Er Eric, Ong, Twins (1 play only), Sia, Stanley, Leks, Soonteck, Soon, Bill, Cikgu, Kenny DOG-lish, Fat boy Chun, Jeffrey. Supporter: Richard Phoon.

First victory for the year 2011

Following our losses to Warriors on Sunday, we were back to our feet again today after beating KDN (Kementerian Dalam Negeri) 2-1. Despite the heavy rain and thunderstorm at 4pm which threaten to wreak havoc to our match, the rain somehow subsided and by kick off someone up there just turn off the tap (nearly) and it was game on.

The match didn't start until 6pm due to the whether condition. Funny thing is many of our younger generations didn't make it and what came was our golden oldies, a rough count before the game saw nearly 80 percent of the attendees being in the upper half of the 40s. A once in a blue appearance of Mr Jeffrey Yap was one of them.

As usual, the old engine need time to warm up and we took nearly 20 minutes to get settle down. We were lucky to not concede any goals as KDN missed a golden chance to score when defender cum midfielder Stanley failed to clear the ball early and was robbed of the ball. As the guy went one on one with Er Eric, his shot was managed to parry away by the extended arm of Er. We sort of woke up from the action and Yeo dully score off a beautiful lob catching their goalier off guard when he was way too far off the goal line. 1-0. Young boy David could have opened his scoring for KL Wed FC but his shot went straight to the goalie.

Second half resume with 4 substitution being made and this time the younger replacements in the twins , Ang and Jas were there to give an extra pair of lungs and legs to our team. Their addition bolster our fire power and in one of our fast break (and with the help of a pool of water), Kenny 88 was able to skip past the onrushing keeper to score in a wide open goalmouth. 2-0. KDN was trying hard to reduce the gap and they managed to pull one back.

We should have kill off the match with 2 goals but LLJ's header was flying wide while Twin ah Chuen was a second slower to follow up on a second ball to tap it in off a shot from Kenny. In the end, we won 2-1.

Attendance list:
1) LLJ 2) Kenny 3)Bullet 4) Cikgu 5) David 6) Stanley 8) Jason Lim 9) Jeffrey Yap 10) Ong 11) Eric Er 12) Yeo 13) Durian 14) Twin How 15) Twin Chuen 16) Ang

KL WEDS 2-3 Warriors

Sunday game report ;-

Good turn out and our opponent this time is the SSL Div 1 leader Warriors FC led by MP Lim (member of Parliment Lim, Thomas lah tu..). According to MP, his team is resting several key players and blend in with a few new players for selection.In theri rank is a top Kazakstan player named Dembayev.

Match were held at Kolej 10 UPM. Nothing much to write about this match as it was a lazy afternoon that kind of affected the mood and concentration of our guys. Warriors were more adventurous side and they were awarded with the opening goal in the first period off a lapse of concentration in the defence. 1st period ended with that score and second period resume with 9 new faces coming in. Play was better and more organized and we received a penalty when i can't remember who was fouled in the D box. Bullet stepped in and alamak..first time i saw him missed a spot kick . He drove it low to the right side only seeing the ball hit the lower post and bounced out. As we continued to chase the game, those at the outside were having some fun going for a 50 meter sprinting bet (Kenny, Xiam, John and Sia)..who won ah? We managed to level the score when Zul curled in a beautiful free kick. 1-1 second period ended.

3rd period ended with Warriors scored 2 more goals before we replied another through Xiam kia with a beautiful cross in goal.
