Surge And Crash

The second day of the Trophy of Legends had Grilled Birds win with seven goals scored in their first two games, only to fall in the third. Polish VI.193 champions Surge Polonia came first, and were put down by a Gandhik Chitre masterclass; Roman Spica squeezed in a header from the barest of touches in the 62nd minute, for their only consolation in the 7-1 drubbing.

Swiss Division Three side Québec FC improved if marginally on that with two late goals banged in by imposing Ukrainian Number Nine Ruslan Abashin, but it was otherwise all going Grilled's way in that 7-2. German II.4 recent Smaragd-Pokal winners Motor Altenburg would finally be the Birds' match, with Wilbert Marchsteiner putting them ahead in the third minute on a delectable two-pass slice through the centre. Chad Thach and Hwang Teck Fu fought it back to 2-3, but it ended 2-5 to Altenburg.

Farmer Bunnies refused to concede anything on the second day of their Heroes of 2014 Trophy adventure, and recorded goalless draws against Peruvian V.1 entrants Alianza Jallime and then Swiss V.18 participants FC Draft. Lim Guang Qiang had two early chances denied by the barest of margins in the first, while Ong Li Jing missed the connection on Amaya Ravula's near-perfect waist-high cross midway through the first half, for the latter.

Victory would then be had against Russian IV.7 relegatees Smol67, who gave the Buns a right scare in the sixth minute after a through ball trickled to Viktor Alenchikov. The striker put it narrowly wide, however, and after several efforts were saved by Spanish goalkeeper Isaac Puchades, Arturo Rosano finally put it past him from the spot in the 50th minute, after an infringement in the box.

Grilled International would impress with three big whitewashes in their Heroes of 2017 Trophy commitments, starting with a 4-0 over Italian Division Six side Balda Team, which had Snæbjörn Sigfússon's fourth minute free kick give heart. They then went one better next against Rome's CISCO ROMA, with the VII.565 club hit with braces from Sazwan bin Hj Muhd Salleh and Umut Koza - and this after Waldemar Gołata had gotten himself sent off in the 21st minute, for a silly second yellow.

Not to be stopped, International then upped their output a second time, with Brazilian V.136 runners-up Corinthians Parnaibano coming under fierce assault from the opening whistle. Redhuan bin Mohd Aleshahfezan put International ahead in the third minute after a defensive snafu, but the pick of the lot was probably Hardi bin Besar's 50th minute incursion, following Luiz Rodrigo Tiziu's miscontrol on the right.

Chua Jun Long hailed this as one of International's best days in recent memory. "If we play like this next season, I won't even care all that much as to our final league position - well, maybe a little. Merry Christmas!"
