our opponents was the champion for the A-League, and there was a definite distance between the 2 teams.
...important thing was we managed to score some very nice goals and neutralize their attack at times.
if the whole team play as one, I think we can get there one day.
Of the 5 goals we conceded, summarize as follows:
1. Penalty (controversial)
2. Striker beating our defender
3. Long distance shot towards top corner. (GK momentarily failed to react)
4. Long distance shot outside box, and we were too late to close him down.
5. Defense mistake in controlling the ball instead of clearing the ball at penalty spot.
all 5 we might have avoided...
will start posting photos of last week game, taken by your part time photographer, me.

in somewhat a perfect posture before delivering a kick.
after playing for 6 years in Chiking League, we have decided to go for new challenges, and opted to join a NEW league - the Active League.
QRE87 is going to have a new team jersey this year in about 2 weeks time. Let's have a recap of our RED shirts bought 3 seasons ago, appearing in one of our friendly in January this year at King's Park.
and yes, it's that same guy with moustache again! But Duncan was strong in resisting the challenge.
How many players are there in a team?
only one defender left before reaching the goal, did Wongkit score? Go! Wongkit! Go!
one on one, there's little problem for a sharp striker/ midfield...
when sandwiched between opponents, to break free requires huge amount of stamina, speed, and skill...or with a little help from your friend...
breaking free and leaving behind two opponents.
The pink no. 32 was about to receive the ball. Harry, our Centre Back ran in and prepare to do an interception.
Sensing the urgency, instead of capturing the ball, Harry decided to ruin our opponent's possession.
still not able to neutralize the situation, Harry has already renewed the tackle. Pls note from the 2nd photo to the 3rd, you need to have immense agility, one key aspect of being a defender in order to do this.
