Anyone knows what happened to Zaibacul? He's supposed to write the match report but has since been MIA. Lazy bugger. Your petulance will be rewarded with a place on the bench tomorrow. For the full 90 mins! haha.
The thing about writing match report so late is that you tend to forget some details of the match itself. Ill try to recollect as accurately as possible.
We scored another empet goals in our last game against Prem's friend's team, who have yet to get themselves a name. This newly-formed team without jerseys jolted us from our laidbackness and complacency in the opening minutes by grabbing the lead through a corner. Zai bacul failed to clear a cross coming his way when their unmarked rightback power-volleyed the ball into the net. Admittedly shoddy defending by Skopet.
But the goal proved to be the turning point in the game with the Skopet players stepping up a gear and showing greater intent and urgency with every move. The introduction of a fasting SopPet into left wing created more penetration and balance in the attack while Syahir gremlin's influence in the right flank is beginning to show.
After a string of chances, Prodigy syaf finally equalised with a well calculated freekick which got us on our way to a comfortable victory. Syahir gremlin combined well with Evan/Toyol and scored a beautiful goal off a series of one-twos.
Myself added another before the break by capitalising on the miscommunication between their keeper and last man. Elsewhere Toyol had a glorious chance in front of goal but missed after deciding not to try with his left leg. 3-1 at half time.
Zai came on as a striker in the second half and was unlucky not to score. Still yet to score as a striker for Skopet. Will he ever break his duck?
Attacking midfielder Evan came agononisingly close to scoring a super goal from Sop's cross. The midfield was superbly dominated by Prodigy Syaf who neutralised the threat of the opponent's best player. Syaf stamped his authority and class on this frustrated player by winning the ball fairly and keeping his cool despite being shackled countless times. The lesser player than turned his attention to Evan who unfortunately did earn a yellow card in the end. hahah.
Sop pet fittingly scored the 4th goal with a thunderous kurang ajar volley into the roof of the net to wrap up another convincing win.
Kudos to the defence who closed up shop immediately after the first goal. Boyboyan was fierce as a last man working with Jiaming, Husni, Fish and and Ahmad who stopped all the opponents' advances. Rudy as usual was making class saves everytime a shot was on target.
Man of the match = Syaf - stabilised the midfield in his DM role and ran and ran till he had to be subbed. haha.
A rather long match report. Better appreciate it.

Good job for this game friends.
While it may be true that Zai did contribute significantly, we must bear in mind the following:
1) It was a genuine mistake
2) He came down to DEFEND our corner on his own accord; collective defending is something that I have always been harping on. On that occasion, he should be commended and emulated.
I am pretty sure that his commitment to defending is not a one-off incident. I am sure the rest will follow suit. Else the defenders and I would be disappointed
I meant:
"...contributed significantly to the goal we conceded...."
yes everyone must help defend. even strikers.
