Gosu 4-5-1!!


We're proud to bring to u /S MANUFACTURING CO. Every player produced by /S eats football and sleeps football and look at how they wear their boots and place their boots? INVINCIBLE /S MACHINES!!!!(FYI this pic is not posed)

Team /S 3 (Kingyau x 2, Yuda) Team Grey II 1

Ok with someone breathing down my neck trying to snatch my rice bowl, I better try to do something about it lolx.

Team /S’ new pre-match preparation…9 jugs of Tiger the night before the match seemed to enhance Team /S’ performance. Or could we have done better? As the pre-match preview had stated, this is the first time /S is having a striker crisis. But at the bottom of everyone’s heart….they know they still have a true striker in /S….he used to be called ‘Jiu Hao’! This time Team /S came up with an invincible strategy….a strategy that can fully utilize all the talents there is in /S….and yes….it is “4-5-1”! Due to the absence of the MAN, we have to use the ONE >.<

Team Grey II looked like a very good team made up of average aged skilful Malays! And once again Team /S went….oh shit….that’s our opponents. But as ky puts it, “It’s better to over-estimate the opponents then to underestimate them!” Words of inspiration from the rice bowl stealer lol.

And so we went into the match with 11 players! Team /S started extremely disciplined and organized on all areas of the pitch, hardly allowing Team Grey II to have any space to mess around. The first scoring opportunity bounced off the underside of the crossbar after ky put a low cross in towards a closely marked yuda who managed to get a flick on the cross but only to see his golden opportunity bounce off the woodwork. Bad omen for Team /S striker T_T. The first goal came from a freekick on the left flank, looks like it was going to be a cross but tricky ky decided to go for it and it paid off! Something only Laurent Robert would go for! 1-0! With Team /S still keeping their shape extremely well, ky once again made space for himself at the edge of the penalty box to put another shot pass the keeper! 2-0! What form this guy is enjoying! Half-Time remained 2-0.

During the break, everyone knew what they were not supposed to say. NO ONE IS TO SAY THE WORDS “CLEAN SHEET” cause the team captain is extremely superstitious lol. Indeed, there was no half-time team talk. Everyone knew what to do. The newly appointed striker also gave a heart to heart talk to our current on form midfielder ky, “Just play me the through balls….don’t bother where I am.”

In the early stages of the 2nd half, that was exactly what ky did. An ambitious through ball was run onto by yuda who finally managed to slot the ball pass the oncoming keeper! 3-0! Moments later, a similar through ball found yuda in yet another similar situation but this time he put the shot wide. In the midst of the game it was as if we could hear one another’s heart…clean sheet….this time sure can…..letz get the clean sheet! BUT ONCE AGAIN, a lobbing through ball got the better of the defence and with kerk staying on his line, the opposition’s first attempt at goal rebounded off kerk but they made no mistake in converting the parried shot! 3-1! If u guys haven’t noticed…..every goal we let in seemed to happen the same way…lobbing through ball….john chasing down the striker….striker gets the better of him….kerk left helpless…..Goal….Some things are just not meant to be…..and that’s the final score..3-1.

Nevertheless, it was one of the best performances by Team /S. Solid defence and plenty of scoring opportunities. This was the uncut version of Toeharee Paijand’s comment “'No striker? Just put yuda. Confirm outrun the whole team. But can he score?” He had so many chances he could actually do a double hat-trick T_T.

"If you're in the penalty area and don't know what to do with the ball, put it in the net and we'll discuss the options later." Bob Paisley
