Team /S 4(Trav x 3,Ky) Team Refugees 1

Inspired by a rampant Man Utd the previous night, Team /S stormed to an awesome victory over Team Refugees.

The odds were against us as we only had 11 players which meant that we didn't have any substitutes and since the 11 comprised of Jy and Kerk, it meant that there were plenty of doubts as to whether we would be able to finish with 11 players.

Kerk started in goal and Nicholas from NUS made his debut for /S on the leftback position. The first goal was scored by Travers when a throw-in from the right was not properly cleared by the opposition defence. Ky (or somebody) flicked the ball on and Travers put the ball into the net at the near post position with a one touch volley.

The second goal was a header(i think) from Travers amidst a defence all out at sea. Ky appeared to have the final touch, but the goal was accredited to Travers. 1st half ended at 2-0 to /S with Kerk keeping yet another one-half clean sheet thanks to the defence in front of him with the ever-solid Yoons making many a defensive header.

2nd half started with Les in goal as Kerk took over as rightback. A lesson was learnt the hardway for Capt Foo as with Kerk and Jy on the same flank, Yuda had to cover for them all the time against the likes of Victor from the Refugees.

A one-two from the opposition players found one of them almost through on goal with John chasing him, but miscommunication from John and Les allowed him to calmly stroke the ball into the goal. 2-1, game on.

Team Refugees started to put more pressure on /S as they sought for the equaliser, but Chengwei continued to show his party tricks even though there wasn't really any audience.

The ref told us that it was fulltime, but we decided to play 5 more mins to make it more exciting.
Cue mayhem as Travers completed his hattrick from a freekick that floated over the keeper. Ky got his name on the scoresheet following a cutback from Brendon.

A late rout and Team /S successfully had their revenge for a previous defeat the Refugees inflicted over a much-depleted Team /S.
