Grilled Birds started the game in a 2-5-3 formation, whereas A.C. ZIBIDO lined up in a 3-5-2. ZIBIDO clearly preferred using their utopian (19) ability to attack in the middle today. Slack defending gave Grilled a chance to take the lead with 8 minutes played, but Hwang Teck Fu's cross from the left flank was met gratefully by the opposition who cleared it to safety. With 9 minutes gone, Jordi Vivet suddenly found himself completely free on the right wing when a counter-attack by ZIBIDO caught their opponents by surprise. Only a great save by the opposing keeper prevented him from scoring. Grilled took the lead 14 minutes in, after Gandhik Chitre's awkward, but ultimately successful, shot from the right. 1 - 0. Chia Kwang Tse increased Grilled's lead to 2 - 0, connecting with a hooked ball from the right. The away fans are claiming handball, to no avail. Grilled's Chia Kwang Tse was delighted to score as he saw his shot go between the legs of the advancing keeper and into the net, following some good attacking movement on the right wing. 3 - 0 after 20 minutes. 3 - 0 was the score after the first half. Grilled did a good job holding on to the ball, with 63 percent of possession. We'll be back after these interminable commercial messages.

After 46 minutes, the Grilled coach wanted to see a new face on the field, waving Chan Ze Han off. Joe Reece took his place. As Chan Ze Han left the field, the coach signaled to Aw Keng Chuan to start taking the set pieces that occurred. 夏 (Ha) 其材 (Qicai) should probably have put his team up another goal after 50 minutes, but some great goalkeeping by Gennadiy Babeshko kept the visitors in the game. After a play down the right 51 minutes into the match, Grilled's Gandhik Chitre unleashed a ferocious shot that smashed into the roof of the net - after going over the crossbar. As the 60 minute mark approached, the ZIBIDO manager decided it was time for a substitution. Brás Afonso de Jesus reluctantly made way for Lars-Håkan Lundling. 60 minutes into the match, the referee signaled for a ZIBIDO substitution. Gionata Segaricci came on for Tero Lunnas. With Tero Lunnas no longer on the field, Hannes Holzgräber was the new set pieces taker. Coming in from the right, 夏 (Ha) 其材 (Qicai) almost managed to score another goal for Grilled, but his header was kept out by the lightning fast reflexes of the visiting keeper. After 77 minutes, Lim An Keng put Grilled ahead 4 - 0 when he rose to head in a hooked ball, the result of an effort from the right side. ZIBIDO's Salvatore Antonioli was shown a yellow card for standing over the ball and blocking an opponent's quick free kick after 79 minutes. Mohd Marzuki Khairul gave Grilled supporters even more to cheer about when he increased the lead to 5 - 0 after 81 minutes, following a good exchange of passes on the right that the away team failed to deal with. With the clock showing 85 minutes, the fourth official held up the substitution board. Brian 'Was Born' Reddy looked to see that it was his number in red, so he made his way over to the sideline and swapped out for Paulino Trindade, though he would have liked to continue. It was announced by the fourth official that he estimated stoppage time to be around 2 minutes. This meant there could still be an extra attack or two left in the match! The match ends 5 - 0. Let's go to the Twittersphere to see what the fans think of the game so far! says Grilled's top performer was clearly Gandhik Chitre. You can tell it was nickel beer night yesterday at the local bar because Dimitris Germanakos seemed to stumble all over the pitch. Elmer van Wegen performed admirably for ZIBIDO. Good thing Liubertas Kandzerauskas isn't a horse, because he'd surely be sent to the glue factory after that performance.
