Owls In Towers
The Birds could well afford to be kind to their opponents after the practice match, and head coach
Eren Serpin would represent the club in presenting the visitors with a token of appreciation. "We understand that it's not easy back home, and if there's anything that might be helped with, please do remember us."
Teo Chuan Yong had some personal praise for his direct opposite number for much of the game, the 21 year-old Thiha Pyae Ko. "He did good in difficult circumstances, hard as it may be to make out from the scoreline. A few more years of development, and some really big clubs could come calling."
Farmer Bunnies prevailed 3-0 at home against Irish III.10 leaders The Roundtowers of Glendalough, who never managed to get past the Bun's defence despite the best efforts of Spanish veteran Laureà Silvestre. Instead, it was
Tham Leng Teck making the biggest impression on his restoration, as he proved surprisingly useful down the left too, supplying
Djoko Tambusai before scoring himself on a 31st minute counter.
The spate of clean sheets would be spoilt at the last by Bayswater Barn Owls' Elvis Halliday, as the Oceanian Division Three representatives got one back from a late long ball, after some very encouraging cohesion from the embattled Bruneian side.
Hardi bin Besar continued making a case for Grilled International's next attack to be built around him, as he absolutely tormented the visitors all day, culminating in a second-half brace.
