5th August. The Day We Shone

Sunday. started the day off waking up at 7.30am, meeting up with the other 7 members of the team for the tournament held at Sports Barn, PJ. the tournament was for the Piala Wong Sai Hou, and the winner of the tournament represents the district (i think) in the upcoming futsal tournament.

hear me now. 24 teams. the top two of each group will qualify for Piala A, which is the main prize, and the bottom two of each groups will go to Piala B. so what're the prizes like?

the trophy aka fake world cup, rofl.

here's the results of our matches.

Group stage

first game : walkover (opponent overslept i guess) opponents : Kenanga FC
second game : 1-0 (win) opponents : All Blacks
third game : 2-0 (lost) opponents : Wannabes B

anyways we qualified for Piala A. for our quarter-final match, we played against Sky FC. we were dealt a blow when one of those dickheads elbowed our teammate Kenneth in the ribs, causing the game to stop in the last few minutes in the second half. He was then sent to University Hospital by our sponsor mr G.T, leaving us to go on to win the game 1-0 scored earlier in the match by me HAHA.

down to semi-finals, we had a game against M.U. no, not Manchester United, but Malayan University, bunch of tough malay fellas in light blue jerseys which looked a lil gay. we lead the game again thru a goal (me again omg), and then our opponent equalised through a mistake we made when they had a free kick. at 1-1, Chee Seng brought sexyback to us by scoring to make it 2-1 and brought us to the finals as we all went wild going to our second finals under the sponsorhip mr G.T!

FINALS

Hazel FC vs MICB (group of indian kids). respect to them, they defeated the defending champions in their semi-finals match. they were one bunch of speed demons, although pacy but according to our goalkeeper, their shots lack the power. both teams had many chances to lead the game, we were a lil pressured at first, and i missed two goals haha. we took a lead through Kenneth when he took a shot from in their half of the field, aiming at the near post with all the confusion going on as the keeper failed to see the ball until it hit the back of their net. after that, we played our defensive strategy and cleared the balls and went in for tackles. at the final whistle, all 8 members went crazy and roared out with joy, claps coming from every direction as the game ended. it was an exhilarating and tiring run to reach where we were, but it was well earned.
