As a prelude to the AFF-Suzuki Final, our guys all 22 of them came to receive their brand new Red KL Wed jersey in style. The unveiling of our new jersey came coincidentally with a friendly match against a group of Indonesians. They are students in UKM. We were kept waiting for them as most of them were having classes till 5pm and could only made in after that from the campus..

Guys were buys having a small kick-about just to fill time and around 550pm came the students in their bikes. Around 16 of them turned up and without wasting time they quickly "pasang kasut" and trooped onto the field to get ready. We picked our line-up based on who came first and 11 early birds got to start for the 1st period. Swee D, Bullet, Kenny, LLJ, Sia, Ong, Yeo, Soh, J Lee, CW Loh, Alan L.

Well, i would say the guys were somewhat uncomfortable to dress in red and our played was really nothing to shout about..to many times we hang on to the ball for too long and opponent who were much faster have ample time to close down any space. If we could play simple one two touches, and spread the ball early it will be a much opened game. We were quickly down 0-2 in the first period and heads were low as if we have lost the match. Came second period and with introduction of 9 new players there wasn't much improvement of the play either. We went further behind 0-3 after the 2nd period.
Then, in the 3rd, finally we managed to find our rhythm and this time we saw how players were running to create space for each other and quick passes were exchanged between our players. This certainly have kept the Indonesians at bay and from all the raids down the flank, we scored all three goals to level the score. LLJ achieve a hat-trick. He could have added a fourth only for his powerful header went inches wide.
Post match comment from Swee D and Big Loong - play the ball up fast and don't hold on to the ball too much as this will allow your opponent to close down any space. Possession football is necessary in case your opponent is faster and dominating play. Pass the ball faster when u see your friend has space.
