Killer Tomatoes 5 MOB 0

MOB's winning run of 3 games have been ended in empathic fashion by a Killer Tomatoes team that basically outclassed MOB, both physically and chemically. (?)

Game started off late at Bedok Reservoir Field bcs of the late referee..things didnt take very long to heat up. KT was attacking alot, and MOB was not very used to that bcs it is usualy the other way round. But the defence coped well, with CB Shaun coming in as a very stable central lynchpin defender for the make-shift MOB team, missing 1st team players like Sam (who missed mass..scolded by daddy), Yisheng, Irvin(stil out with ankle injury, expected to be out another 2 wks) and David Lee(will be returning from a fractured wrist in a week or so).

So MOB was playing the usual 4-5-1, starting Raymond, Mitch, Shaun and Aloy at the back 4, and a not-as-strong midfield of Zhi Yang, Zac, Gary, Jon and Brian. Yiming was placed alone up front.

KT was playing a very strong side, and they were getting very physical. Things reached the climax when the oh-so-noisy Wilson lashed out at Gary's tackle and punched him. Gary respectably kept his cool and didnt retaliate. Wilson was sent off for the rest of the 1st half. And it was only 5 mins recorded on the clock. serves him right anyway. field was pretty much quieter. Thank god and thank Ref.

MOB didnt attack much and failed to get balls to Yiming who was having a very quiet half. The only highlight was when thr was a small defensive glitch and Zhi Yang found space for a shot, but delayed and missed a golden chance.

MOB played a dangerous offside trap wich was breached by the KT striker and that was when they scored the 1st goal. Otherwise, Shaun and Mitch was commanding the defence very well. Ppl make mistakes, so dun worry too much bout it.

MOB didnt have man chances, off-form's Yiming's shots scuffed wide, Gary's drive tipped over by e impressive KT 'keeper. Zhi Yang also had a weak shot saved.

Basically, MOB's offsides failed and KT was able to capitalise on these failures and score another 4 in the second half to send MOB to a crumbling defeat. MOB was not playing at the top of the game, and as mentioned earlier, were outclassed in physical aspects. Mitch was already trying his best at the back, and these demoralising goals that kept going in is sure to get to the CB soon, and commitment sneaked away.

KT could haf easily been up 8 goals but they were very arrogant and very complacent, leaving chances for other players when these chances could haf been put away easily.

MOB was lucky to have left the match at 5 goals and with every1 walking stil alive on 2 relatively unhurt legs.

Guys, take this defeat as a lesson. Losing is part n parcel of soccer, if u cant lose(like Arsenal), then u cant win.(ALSO like arsenal.). I think that we've been put against the Killer Tomatoes too early in this stage, bcs we are stil finding our way as a team. But it has also been a very very good wake up call, humiliating as this defeat might be. It has shown us that even though we go about beating teams 7-2 and 5-1, there are stil many many teams out there much beta than us. So this is an inspiration, a call for us to wake up our ideas, put more commitment into the team, and let the passion for soccer wid the MOB take over you, and GO KICK BALL!!!!!
