arms reached out...

Dare to challenge me?

a certain goal?

the power strike

on separate ways

dodging the tackle.

the agile Man...

sandwiched...

can not recall the referee penalized the reds...quite some standard of refereeing...

Match Resumed!

our photographer is back!
and after losing a week ago, QRE87 lead in the league has been cut down to one point,
another important match!

Our First defeat in League this season

0-2 to J-Bulls.
The taste of defeat was bitter, but it was also an opportunity for us to look at what went wrong. How did we concede the 2 goals?
Why couldn't we score?
The referee might be lousy in the match, but just as any other matches, the referee could go either way.
We must however respect our opponents that since losing to us a few months ago, they have reconsidered their strategy, particularly in defense and despite holding possessions during the majority of gameplay, we couldn't find that equaliser.

Good time to reflect.

After having our 1st win of 2-0 vs J-Bulls, tmr match will be a real test of our ability against a totally new opponent.
Go! QRE87! Go!!!

rushing to the rescue.

The ever so youthful U-Kit.

The wall...again

our opponents got another chance outside the penalty area for a free kick...how come Man could suddenly shift his position?

anticipation...

sliding tackle.

wilson has displayed some of the most successful sliding tackles in recent matches. Ball out of play! threat neuralized!

rivalry!

notice the earlier clashes between these two as well...

mid-air still.

the WALL.

seems that our opponent did a very powerful freekick here...

the striker's dance!

only way to catch our dancing striker was to catch his arm! Go! Chifu! Go!

the signal

in anticipation of an onslaught...

great to see the return of one of the strongest centre back for the team!!!!

in Strong Competition.

a tough contest between the two...
btw, Elbert, how come your socks are always down?

Flying tackle!

quite a move...did you get a card for that?

and made such a contrast against those flowers in the background.

winning possession.

defend with your body.

use your body to prevent your opponent from snatching the ball from you.

Competition between the black & white!

I believe no. 21 is Wongkit? their no. 80 was physically quite strong as I remember he had a few chances during the 2nd half to bring the ball into our penalty area. Horace was competing for the ball valiantly despite the fact that his hand was clearly held by our opponent!

matching STARS!

for a misty day, the ball from J-Bulls really added a better dimension to the game...especially when it matched so well with those on Elbert's!
BUT...about this throw..I remembered Elbert threw in thrice and our opponents captured the ball thrice!!! we must move around in the field to give the thrower options!

with the Jump.

The ball is with me.

our goalkeeper in his latest skin tight outfit! intimidating!

Before Kick Off.

rarely do we have so many players at the pitch 1/2 hr before kick off. This was definitely a good start to the season!
hey, zoom in and see who's been partying the night before!!! (just kidding, haha!)

New Season!!! New Team Gear!!!

our first game for the season, and we secured a victory 2-0 versus a competitive opponent, the J-Bulls. More on the game later.

new team shirts and our first time to wear light blue. Almost the entire team is here except: Hei, Felix, Mathieu, Hamdi, Kiu, Dicky, Ngting, & Myke.

This is going to be interesting!
