Match #17 (8 Apr 2012): Double Comeback Win

Some things we couldn't achieve on good Fridays or every Sunday - this time we finally did it. A team bearing some semblance to MS, all Chinese saved for 1 outstanding Malay, but that's where the similarities end. Are there no above-40 teams out there? Another young team, another challenge for MS to overcome - and we have been doing a rather decent job of it, betraying the age of the team.

Unicef Yellows started brightly, keeping possession well, speedy wingers tearing down the flanks. A cross from the left created confusion and led to their first goal with a well-taken finish. On the other end, their failure to clear convincingly allowed Rock to score a rare and nonetheless beautiful goal - sweeping a looping shot over the entire defence as he was falling on account of a heavy b***! UY took the lead again just before half time when their winger again took the ball down the right. At full stretch, his fortuitous cross skidded on the surface and eluded everyone as it slipped in through the near post from an acute angle.

Good interplay epitomize our second half as all three goals were well-created. Starting the moves from our own half, we worked the ball out of it, wide to the flanks before superb finishing was applied to the crosses and knock-backs. Gan equalized with an assist from Wah. He then turned provider with a deep cross for Chye to slid in, making up lots of ground along the way. Chye then headed an assist for Wah to extend our lead. UY scored a late goal to make substitutions decisions harder but we prevailed 4-3.

Let's hope a new run is started!
