Khanal Lock
The few travelling Grilled fans would mostly be bewildered by how they were supposed to feel at this World Battle loss, from their later comments. "The team got the plan right, but it just wasn't working out for them in front of goal." one Tay Ling Huan said. "Perhaps it's just as well it happened today, instead of in the league or cup."
With this, the Singapore II.4 fell 1-2 to their United Arab Emirates counterparts, as Club Dinosauria continued their winning streak in the tournament with a 5-0 sweep of Arch Enemie, with two each from Faust Salvans and Ivo Mana - even if the latter would be sent off afterwards. Still no joy for Moeinsingapore, though, as they were whitewashed 0-7 by Mina A`Salam Fc.
Didi Reidenbach would be spared a probable roasting, as Grilled International rescued their home fixture against Al Khanal by the barest of hairs. Aayed Masoud looked to have won it for the visitors in the last minute, but
Tibor Atzenhain took on both central defenders and equalized for 3-3, right before the final whistle.
Still, Atzenhain would not forget his glaring misses in the first half that had left International in that prediacment in the first place. "It was the least I could do, after that." the German striker apologized. "Not going top as we should have stings, but then we are just one point off."
International indeed did not lose ground in a strange day filled exclusively with draws, with all the other contests ending one-all. While they should be favourites against Livius International next week, the Romanians would be sixty seconds from winning against The Mighty Lions, when former Iranian U-20 star Amir Ata Karbalaei levelled. Something to keep in mind for Reidenbach, then.
