hey dudes..... here it is.....the long awaited match report....... brought to you by Mian...
it was a superb match to say the least..... 7-4..... eleven goals in all.... definitely a goal fest for all neutral supporters...( not that there were many anyway...) the score line is so shocking that even Mr Kadir was forced to use vulgarities... "eh don't talk cock" were the exact words he said..... ( he must be cursing his luck/ lack of luck for missing out on an opporturnity to fulfil his long term goal.... his ultimate objective in life that is keeping him going.... the botaks send their condolences to our beloved Kadir.....and wishes him all the best in future matches against the team..... that the botaks beat 7-4....hahaha )
firstly.... i must put the match down as a lucky break for us.... and complacency for them.... perhaps kadir has conditioned the viets to think that any team introduced by kadir must be free frag..... ( we cannot really blame the viets now can we.... not when u see the same person playing in 5 different teams trying really hard to score against them.... perhaps they were expecting the same....) but anyway... it was definitely not the best team they fielded that day.... so lets not get our heads so bloated and dizzy with this victory.... moreover..... luck was on our side.... as the keeper was off form that day to allow many of our goals.... lets see.....
izac's first goal: who take who score larh.... haha.... the stupid wall was trying to defend the out line that day.... perhaps they didn't want the ball to fly too far if we mis-kicked it....
shaun's goal: we were all turning away with disappointment.. especially shaun... who let out a disgusted cry "blah" and a constipated face... only the optimistic mian looked on.... and BEHOLD the virtues of optimism.... the keeper scooped the ball behind himself like he was scooping water from a well to splash on himself....
mian's goal: can i not be humble here??.....haha...... a well taken free kick meant as a cross.... by some mystical means the ball floated into the net... incidentally... it was the only free kick mian took that day.... also incidentally... its the mian's 2nd direct free kick goal for the botaks..... also also incidentally.... it was juz passed the half way line...hahaha
junquan's goal: finally... he scores a not so clear cut chance.... acting on instinct to head to ball instead of doing something else.... perhaps the Choo should act more on instincts next time during one on one... don't think so much juz wack... maybe its more effective that way... ( i have to comment that the choo doesn't score easy chances... i think he finds them too chicken feet... can only score more difficult goals.... ) the keeper got a hand to it tho...
andy's goal: set up from the mid field by a zidane like pass.....( haha i must stop bragging )..... i believe the thru ball was meant for keith... but andy chiong all the way... out sprinting both the defenders (and keith) to get to the ball.... finishing with a cheeky poke..... andy bellamy chong is really becoming a team asset.... with a 2 match 2 goals strike rate.... irresistable form from him....
dillion's goal: the magician... weaving his way thru after a nice cross from izac... using his famous soft but deadly touches... he manages to chip the keeper and send the ball rolling at an agonizing pace into the goal.... ( agonizing for the defender.... who manages only to sweep the ball into the net )
izac's 2nd goal: to round the match off.... izac closed the scoring after benedict's rioting run and pass..... a shot from outside the penalty area..... somehow izac has the uncanny ability to make the keepers miss the ball above their heads and straight thru their hands.... was in actual fact a central shot but the keeper juz couldn't do anything about it...
so u see dudes..... there was much luck involved in our highest goal scoring record to date.... so we shouldn't really be too proud of it..... ( well...maybe juz be a little proud of it larh..... not too proud....haha ) now to comment on our defence... we were good in snuffing out most of the attacks.... and the goals we let in were unfortunate... and i must... on the botak blog.... official commend YU CHONG for an outstanding performance during the second half!!!! he was brave in coming out to catch many of the balls.... which saved us quite a bit.....
but again.... we have to work on our defence AS A WHOLE.... i know Jain and Liang and Nich and Ben and Alex Sim all worked their asses off for us that day..... but we are still far off from our clean sheet.... so midfield try to come back as much as possible.... i know its difficult... but we all have to try.... there weren't any major lapses in defence that day.... but i must say that the liang deserves a 2 match ban for un-sportsman like behaviour...... he was disrespectful to the ref..... uttering many sacarstic remarks...... that is not wat playing soccer is about....... and the botakgang will not condone such acts of lack of integrity...... also..... he deserves another 10 match ban.... for joking around when we were leading in the match.... and neglecting defending duties for personal glory.... this placed the team's interest in jeopardy, which is the main reason for proposing the 10 match ban....( unless of cos we get a marche treat....-grin- )
All in all i guess we didn't really play that well to deserve the big score line..... i mean we all know it when we play well... and this was certainly not one of those times..... hopefully the davids match we will play better..... as our opponents are now the VJ players..... we cannot afford to do anything silly in that match.....
for now... lets relish our 7 goal victory......
