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.
