Grilled 3 - 0 Hazard
e 4205 fans in attendance at
The Cooking Pot were roasting in the hot sun.
Bernhard Heesen was the appointed referee with assistance provided by
Roberto Speyer and
Heinrich Merkur. Grilled decided to use a 4-5-1 set up. Lineup: Seng - Ross, Bacelar, bin Ahmad, Bakhtiar - 力勇 (Liyong), bin Mohd Kassim, Ying Lee, 勇航 (Yonghang) , Bellamoli - Shaahee.
Hazard tactics involved an interesting 3-5-2 combination. The following players had been chosen: Andreasson - Hazard, Martin, Sousa Leite - Botín Ríos, Miller, Kidney, Johnson, Harvey - Gaymon, Runcie.
Today, Grilled's strategy involved concentrating on the flanks for their attacks. At 5 minutes played,
Mohd Safri bin Mohd Kassim came in from the right with the intention of giving Grilled the lead, but his rocket of a shot rattled the crossbar. Some great play up the middle by Grilled led to a chance for
田. 勇航 (Yonghang) to score after 13 minutes, but the shot hit the crossbar. 25 minutes into the game, Grilled seemed to suffer a certain amount of confusion and they fell to a
inadequate level of organisation. Slack defending gave Grilled a chance to take the lead with 27 minutes played, but
梁. 力勇 (Liyong)'s cross from the left flank was fumbled in front of the goal and easily dealt with by the opposition. With 30 minutes played
Hilal Bakhtiar">
Hilal Bakhtiar almost put the home team one ahead on a cross coming in from the right, but the shot went just wide. Halftime score was 0 - 0. Grilled had most of the ball, with 62 percent of possession.
The Grilled players spent the break getting a rerun of the team's tactical organisation and regained a
solid organisation when the game started again. 46 minutes into the match, the referee signalled for a Grilled substitution.
Colby Awyong came on for
Hilal Bakhtiar">
Hilal Bakhtiar. Grilled broke through on the left 50 minutes into the game, with
Chow Ying Lee firing in from an acute angle to give the home side a 1 - 0 lead.
Shiya Shaahee's technique was perfect on this sunny day and led to some breathtaking tricks that bamboozled the defence. Content with how the game was proceeding, the Grilled coach let
Leong Wan Kang replace
Shiya Shaahee after 65 minutes. Grilled's
Chow Ying Lee increased the lead to 2 - 0, after he saw his shot go between the legs of the advancing goalkeeper following some good play down the right wing after 67 minutes. After this, you could see that the players of Grilled were more interested in killing time than scoring more goals. Grilled managed to extend their lead to 3 - 0 when
Walter Ross cut in neatly from the left side and struck a fine shot past the away team's goalkeeper. It was obvious that Grilled had instructions to attack on the wings instead of in the middle.
Walter Ross left the field with a smile on his face as he was substituted 80 minutes into the game, as his team was in the lead.
Sandy Fu was the replacement. With 80 minutes played,
Mohd Safri bin Mohd Kassim could have brought this one home for Grilled as he charged up on the left, but his hooked ball went just a bit too high. Hazard had to make a substitution after 83 minutes.
Carlton Runcie limped off the field and was replaced by
Lieven Caenen. Grilled enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 67 percent of possession.
The most dominating Grilled player was without a doubt
Rashid bin Ahmad.
Dan Seng on the other hand, had a terrible day. Most important Hazard player was
Lieven Caenen. On the other hand,
Silvério Sousa Leite's play was disheartening. The match ends 3 - 0.
