Match report #33 (5 Sep 10): Strange to comeback frantically against OVA

How often do we get to play teams older than us and what's the probability that they have to play with 10 for much of the match? If that was amazing, what's more astonishing was the way we contrived to go 1-3 behind after drawing 1-1 at half time. Doubtless OVA had their imposing striker to thank for his 1-man 5-star contribution plus luck on their side when the ref awarded a soft penalty for them to go 2-1 up. We were punished for a tentative display that lacked ideas in attack against a deep-seating defence or was guilty of trying to play elaborate passes when simple ones will do - which explains how our goals came about. Chye's penalty and straight-from-corner goals sandwiched Kok Hock's header off Chye's corner delivery. All from dead ball situations that sum up a rather static, unsatisfying 3-3 draw.
