yeah, we know we can’t make it. We thought 12-0 drubbing was bad enough, this time we let in 17, yeah, that’s seventeen goals !!! To console ourselves, at least we scored two. I scored one on the night.

After a great performance last week, it all fell apart as we tried to rely on individual skill instead of effort - unfortunately we don’t have much.

A stupid early own goal from Kevin put everyone on a downward slide and the ref starting the game bang on according to his watch which seemed a bit early to everyone else, meant that the six players were up against it from very early on. There was a lot of movement from the Matador players and tired old legs from BarCap just couldn’t keep up.

Lessons learnt from this and let’s hope that the one week break can settle us back down to burst back on with some more players returning from injury and some new faces.

Great play from Matador and hope to have some fresher legs next time we face you!

Man of the match to late opponent as no-one really stood out and it was our only real chance! Special commendation to Ian but I think we’ll get bored of awarding him MOTM soon!

Full match report, as usual, in ESPZen site.

My blog is starting to resemble Soccernet with an update of my soccer game every week. This week, we were scheduled to play against BNP Paribas Futsal Club. With more people playing this week (which means more substitutes), we were able to finish the game with a more respectable scoreline. After a twelve goals thrashing two weeks ago, and seven goals deficit last week, this week, we reduced that to only two goals. In a way, we improved by five goals each week. If that is not improvement, I don’t know what is. We hope that will continue to become positive three next week.

In our third outing together, the team looks much better. There were visibly better understanding around the team (though multiple times my passes went astray, not knowing where my team mate were). I also opened my account by scoring one of the three scored tonight, yeehaaa !!! My manager scored the other two, noticeably better goals than mine.

No match report yet, but soon it will be up in ESPZen site.

It’s my ball, don’t come near it
