Clouds darkened the skies at the stadium today. The following players had been selected: Frisenna - Svensson, Fitzmaurice - Fuzzey, Vandeburie, Zijp, Vald�s, Simonsson - St Clair, McPhee, Casson.

Starters: Germanakos - Keng Chuan, Hutter - Reddy, Thach, An Keng, Khairul, Parada - Reece, Ming Xin, Tokarz.

The coaches were in sync today, as both teams lined up in a 2-5-3 formation. After 29 minutes, Grilled's Chad Thach made his way through the middle and nonchalantly placed the ball out of the keeper's reach, putting the visitors up 0 - 1. The home crowd was not impressed when Joe Reece came in from the right, shooting hard to score after 34 minutes. Grilled were now up 0 - 2. After more pushing and shoving than a pack of helicopter moms trying to get the last appointment for their snowflakes to see the Easter Bunny, Grilled's Phua Ming Xin finally got himself booked for a foul. Some fine one-twos on the left led to a Grilled goal with 36 minutes gone, making it 0 - 3. Joe Reece was noted down as the scorer. Phua Ming Xin increased the visitors' lead by volleying in a pass from the right. 0 - 4. Grilled came close to extending their lead as Federico Parada delivered a low effort on goal from the right but the angle was too sharp, and the shot was destined for the side netting. The teams went for the halftime break at 0 - 4. Now to our celebrity commentator for a hot take. Over to you, Snoop! Brian 'Was Born' Reddy looked around after sending his opponent to the ground to realize he was the last man. That's called denial of a goalscoring opportunity, and the Grilled player was sent off after 50 minutes. Alex Frisenna got a fingertip on Joe Reece's shot from the left 51 minutes in, and managed to keep the visitors from going up another goal. Orest Tokarz of Grilled received a yellow card after 70 minutes for unsportsmanlike behavior. With the scoreboard showing that 73 minutes had been played, Grilled nearly put themselves up another goal after Chad Thach came through on the left. Fortunately for the home crowd, the keeper made the save. Shrimp's coach was furious with John Simonsson after he picked up a yellow for saying one too many words to the ref. The referee decided to let play continue for an additional 2 beyond the regular 90 minutes. The match ends 0 - 4. Well, look at this! Cardi B is on the Enormotron in naught but giant sunglasses and a Never2L8 tank top. I've not seen anything like it before. Shrimp's best player was Jany Vandeburie. Speaking of stinking up the place, Billy Fitzmaurice sure smelled like the bottom of Batman's shoe after a night of crimefighting in Gotham. The most outstanding Grilled player was without a doubt Federico Parada. I can't remember Damian Hutter ever having a worse night than he just had.
