Weather conditions were pretty good for football today. They fielded: Assirati - Naouali, Werpin, Bachrouche, Laâmari - Bidarra, Saïdane, Khémissi, Gabteni - Amir Moezi, Kiziroğlu.

The following players had been selected: Germanakos - Himadas, 其材 (Qicai) - Reddy, Thach, Keng Chuan, Teck Fu, Trindade - Kwang Tse, An Keng, Khairul.

The teams had chosen different formations for the match. The home team, Gantoise Keerken, went for a 4-4-2, while Grilled Birds has decided to play a 2-5-3 lineup. Grilled clearly preferred using their divine (+8) (28) ability to attack in the middle today. Almost all the way down at the corner flag, Grilled's Paulino Trindade somehow managed to get a perfect pass into the middle, impossible to miss for Lim An Keng, who scored for 0 - 1. After 3 minutes of play, Mustafa Kiziroğlu evened things up for Gantoise with an impressive goal coming up the middle. 1 - 1. Grilled had a good opportunity to attack on the wing, but remembered their instructions to go for middle instead. Down the middle came Raúl Himadas, making a fantastic play that nearly saw Grilled take the lead after 13 minutes, but Leandro Assirati preserved the tie. 18 minutes into the game, Mohd Marzuki Khairul had a great chance to put his team ahead, but his kick from the left went wide. Leandro Assirati looked great 19 minutes in after stopping a shot by the visitors' Chia Kwang Tse. Grilled had several good opportunities to take the lead, especially 27 minutes in when 夏 (Ha) 其材 (Qicai) found himself alone with Leandro Assirati who managed a block. 1 - 1 was the halftime score. Grilled did a good job holding on to the ball, with 54 percent of possession. We'll be back after these interminable commercial messages.

1 - 2 was the score after 53 minutes, when Grilled's Raúl Himadas cut through the central defense and pounded one in. Grilled's Lim An Keng made it through the home team's defense on the right hand side 55 minutes into the match. After rounding the keeper, he only had to place the ball in the unguarded net when a defender slid in and cleared the ball off the line. After 66 minutes of game time, Brian 'Was Born' Reddy had an excellent opportunity to add to the visitors' lead, hitting a cross from the right with a half volley, but Leandro Assirati was in the right place and tipped the ball to a corner. It was obvious that Grilled had instructions to attack in the middle when they directed a break on the wing into the center of the park. Brian 'Was Born' Reddy came close to extending the visitors' lead when he found himself completely unmarked in front of the goal after a pass through the middle, but his attempted chip over Leandro Assirati just kept rising and landed in the relieved crowd. With the match clock reading 75 minutes, the inexperienced Grilled team fell into disarray. Amir Bachrouche pulled a rabbit out of his hat as he wove through the guest's entire central defense and put the 2 - 2 equalizer away after 76 minutes. 89 minutes into the match, the referee signaled for a Grilled substitution. Damian Hutter came on for Aw Keng Chuan. The referee decided to let play continue for an additional 1 beyond the regular 90 minutes. After 89 minutes of play, the free-spirited Damian Hutter decided to aim straight for the goal as he struck from the corner of the field. The ball deflected off a defender and went out of bounds. An opportunity to take the lead after 89 minutes was wasted as Grilled's Raúl Himadas missed a penalty, firing wide of the mark. The match ends 2 - 2. Now to our celebrity commentator for a hot take. Over to you, Snoop! Gantoise's top performer was clearly Abdelhak Khémissi. You can tell it was nickel beer night yesterday at the local bar because Moufid Naouali seemed to stumble all over the pitch. Most important Grilled player was Lim An Keng. Even six year old fans were wincing at the poor play by Dimitris Germanakos today.
