MATCH 3 Evergreen Utd 1-2 MCU

Third match of our league game was againts a team called MCU, which is a Hong Kong based team which i didn't played as it was Simon our first choice keeper's turn, but surprise to us, it was pack with Aussie players, including a Colombian ex-National Youth player...

As the score above probably have stated there that we lost the game, but wasn't to a un-fruitful one. We was bombarded by a series of controversial and unprofessional refereeing, and as a result a free kick from the top right of the penalty box, MCU scored as our first choice GK couldn't handle well the ball that was coming in and as a result the opposing player managed to tip in a goal. After a short while, yet another free kick was presented to them at the exact same site of the penalty box's top right angle. Diago, a Colombian ex-National Youth player, whip in a perfectly angled free kick and claim the goal. And for the whole first half we were pressured by them but was in no means of worse than them.

Second half started, and we started playing alot of through balls and counter attack from the middle. On the record we have 5 one-by-one chances by yet Lady Luck was on their side as none of them was converted to a goal. But anyhow, on the last 10 minutes, the pressure was on our side and we managed to hold them on their own half of the pitch while bombarding them with crosses and passes, and Frank prove to be a winner with a swift run into the penalty box and a cool finish ended it. More attack was put out by us and we managed to get a cross which resulted with Frank connected with a header on goal! Sadly the ball hit the bar and did not went in as a result. To be honest, the goal was a bit shorter in height, and the bar was crooked that it literally just hangs down on the middle, means the middle was the lowest part of the bar, should its a straight line it would have been 100% a goal. But sadly, unlucky is what hit our team today.

The point where i say it wasn't un-fruitful, was that even though we were againts all the odds today, they have better player, they have kickers, well organized, but still we were still able to bombard them with attacks and chances as well. It doesn't mean that, if overall we lose to them, it doesn't necessarily means that we've 100% lose, this is what football is, its never a thing that can be measured in percentage, it keeps on changing. What i am really proud of is that our team didn't even have the urge to give up, and that we're always on the move. We could have turn the tables around but clearly, unlucky~

Numbers of minute un-scored: 0 (but still a 70 for me)
