Weather conditions were fairly good for football at the stadium today. The following players had been selected: Yi Shun - Ghani, Limaye, Wei Hock - An Pin, Bhutia, Wee Chi, Mohammad Hazim, Dong - Sze Keng, Kiong Lee.

The following players took the field: Vadal� - Panigrahi, Keng Chuan, Webb - Ze Han, Xin Seng, Chuan Yong, Mohammad Harun, Kwang Tse - Mottl, Velho.

Both teams came out with a similar approach to the match, having chosen to start with a 3-5-2 formation. Chaser(R) used their outstanding (10) ability to concentrate their attacks in the middle of the field. Grilled showed off their creative tactics. 3 minutes into the game, Jos� Luiz Velho was a hair's width away from giving Grilled the lead with a shot from the left. A timely dive by Gan Yi Shun saved the home team on this occasion. Grilled's Chia Kwang Tse sent an early cross that saw the defenders caught out of position and the alert Prokop Mottl was able to pounce and roll the ball past the hapless netminder to make the score 0 - 1. After 9 minutes a combination in the middle resulted in a through ball for Bilal Mohammad Harun who increased Grilled's lead to 0 - 2. Grilled's Prokop Mottl received a ball slotted perfectly through the home side's central defense after 24 minutes, and chipped it past the helpless keeper to increase the lead to 0 - 3. The away fans won't regret traveling for this one! 29 minutes into the game, Grilled were awarded a penalty and Bhavya Panigrahi was able to increase the visitors' lead to 0 - 4, rolling the ball in off the right post. Grilled's Prokop Mottl made it through the home team's defense on the right hand side 38 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. Grilled already had the lead, so Chan Ze Han probably won't be too disappointed that his speculative shot from the right 40 minutes in fell wide of the goal. Halftime score was 0 - 4. Grilled had the upper hand in possession, maintaining an impressive 72 percent possession of the ball.

After 46 minutes, the Grilled coach wanted to see a new face on the field, waving Chia Kwang Tse off. Lim An Keng took his place. Jos� Luiz Velho was, after 64 minutes, almost able to extend the visitors' lead with a well placed diving header after the ball had looped into the center, but the home side's keeper Gan Yi Shun made the save. Chaser(R)'s Octavius Dong was shown a yellow card after 65 minutes for slicing down an opponent. With 66 minutes played, Grilled put themselves up 0 - 5 after an attack from the right, caused by a defensive blunder. The scorer was Chan Ze Han. Grilled made it 0 - 6 as Bilal Mohammad Harun knocked the corner kick to Lim An Keng who whipped a low drive in off the far post. Gotta love friendly woodwork! After the ball was lifted in from the left, Jos� Luiz Velho was on his own in the home side's penalty area and should have scored after 77 minutes, but missed, probably due to lack of concentration. With the clock showing 80 minutes, the fourth official held up the substitution board. Chan Ze Han looked to see that it was his number in red, so he made his way over to the sideline and swapped out for Enrique Baena, though he would have liked to continue. 80 minutes into the game, Grilled wanted to bring some new energy to their game. Jos� Luiz Velho gave Mohd Marzuki Khairul a quick hug as he left the field. Chaser(R)'s coach was furious with Rajit Bhutia after he picked up a yellow for saying one too many words to the ref. Gan Yi Shun got a fingertip on Mohd Marzuki Khairul's shot from the left 82 minutes in, and managed to keep the visitors from going up another goal. The fourth official announced that there would be 2 minutes of stoppage time, giving fans a slim hope that their team could get one more attack in before this was all over. The match ends 0 - 6. Grilled set the tempo, maintaining 69 percent of possession.

Chaser(R)'s top performer was clearly Ng Kiong Lee. Good thing Azri Ghani isn't a horse, because he'd surely be sent to the glue factory after that performance. The most outstanding Grilled player was without a doubt Teo Chuan Yong. Speaking of stinking up the place, Enrique Baena sure smelled like the bottom of Batman's shoe after a night of crimefighting in Gotham.
