Did I accidentally left anyone out?
So it's 7-a-side. Team B scored first to make it 1-0. Then Team A equalized 1-1. Team B again went ahead 2-1. Team A cancelled that out to make it 2-2. It's see-saw and Team B again went ahead 3-2. Again Team A equalized 3-3. Team B 4-3 up. Team A drew it 4-4. Team B won with golden goal classic Ah San header 5-4. Basically, Team B punch Team A, Team A punch back.
I had a groin strain. I woke up from my sleep Wee Zheng calling me for breakfast and I'm ok. At least Cher Siang is putting effort to play. Wee Zheng was as per normal. Javier showing rustiness but still a good player. Glen too much showboating. David knows where to position himself. Alex is the all-round midfield player.
How Meng appeared after a long absence. A little rusty. Kang Xiang moving from defence to attack with no frills. Once In a While Guy making that right-back spot his. Uncle Justin is still masterful but not like last time. Shyong Ming likes to play just in front of the midfield. Ah San seems to be bothered by something. Chris is the most skilful among us. Having a slightly above-average game. Jeff again full of vigour.

Did I accidentally miss anyone out?
Team B had too much firepower for Team A. Anyone in Team B can score. The 14 goals were shared around by all players of Team B. They play as a unit.
Even defenders like Keith, Kang Xiang and Wee Zheng know when to go up and down the pitch. Kang Xiang scored a nice goal with a flying backheel. Alex sits well in the middle of the park surrounded by capable players. Glen and Chris were terrorizing the flanks. Shyong Ming was on one of his best days. Scoring a thunderblot that no keeper can save. Definitely Goal Of The Match.
Team A on the other hand, is just not up to the mark. I saved a few shots acrobatically but I just couldn't save 14 of them from Team B. Javier and Ah San are not up to it on this day. They seem to have problems in their minds. Nicholas was cool as usual. Uncle Justin too not having a good game. David did what he had to do.
I made Alex bleed when I played outfield for a while. Maybe I should just be goalkeeper. I am reckless. Like that girl at The Cage said,'That guy in the Chelsea jersey tackle people anyhow.'

Did I accidentally leave anyone out?
Alex had an overall good game but in the match we were trounced 9-1, we had no striker. Shyong Ming doesn't want to stay up and wondered in the middle of the park. For all of my saves as keeper, I could do nothing with all those shots raining at me.
Kang Xiang likes to go up and down. In the middle of the field we are prone to counter-attacks. David is smart holding the ball and releasing it to his nearest teammate. He knows where to position himself for a shot.
Wee Zheng do pass the ball often but he loses possession many times. Last match my team were leading 5-3 and Tang Yao demanded the match continue. It was already dark when Lionel made it 5-5 with a header.
Cher Siang and his brute force. Uncle Justin really played well. He plays like a professional. Chris was amazing. He is the reason why I lost matches. There was once I saved his shot, the ball hit the post and went in.
Daniel again more shots off target than on target. Ah San seemed rusty. I don't know what's on his mind. Keith on his favourite position right-wing. Why you people don't want to mark Lionel? If he is given time and space, he can score.
Nicholas is a dangerous centre midfielder. Ah San's son played for a short while and he scored.

Did I accidentally leave anyone out?
The problem with Team A is we don't have striker. We cannot do a 4-6-0 Spain formation. All my saves, switching to left-back, all the defenders' hard work(Tian Ting, Tang Yao, Cher Siang), the industry of the midfield(En Rong, Wee Zheng, Spectacled Guy, David), Chris terrorizing the wings...no striker to finish it up.
Team B did well to go up 3-0. Once In A While Guy and Glen on the right-wing combined well to deliver deadly crosses. Kang Xiang was again breaking up attacks. With Ah San helping. Javier did well as DM. Alex again pulling the strings. He managed to slide past tackles and spray passes. Daniel was poor though he did score a goal. So Team A came back to make it 3-3. It rained and we stopped.
I went on my own later to watch Hougang United lose at home to Gombak United. I think we are better than them. I don't think I will be playing when H8FC joins a private league. Because of medicine, I have poor stamina. I'll be just an average manager. Maybe 2nd choice keeper if Tang Yao is injured.

H8FC Street Soccer 30 June 2012
Syahrein, Alex, Kang Xiang, David, Wee Zheng, Shyong Ming, Keith, Kevin, Tang Yao and Cher Siang made a return to our street soccer court. At first we were playing with a few Malay boys. The unlikely team of Syahrein, David, Tang Yao and Cher Siang win 2 tough matches in a row.
We re-team and play among ourselves. Then came the challenge of 4 Chinese boys. I didn't look at them because I thought they were gangsters. I don't stare at guys looking for fight. I stare at pretty girls and hot moms. Then I realized these guys played with me at the court many, many years ago. Maybe they are sad I left them and played with us at field. Kang Xiang was fired up and fired on all cylinders. I think in one match, he scored all 3 goals.
Thank goodness there were no gangsters challenging us to a match. I think we are fully prepared for private league. I'll be the player-manager. We just have to wait until you all become working adults.
