Grilled Birds would end the first half of the season on a miserable four points, as Club Dinosauria toppled them 5-0 at The Cooking Pot, with less than thirty thousand of their dwindling faithful turning up. Bhavya Panigrahi would be sorely missed despite Aw Keng Chuan doing a passable job in defence - for the first half at least, with Teo Chuan Yong taking over dead ball duties only to be shut down by Florea Răducu.
There would be league full debuts for Dimitris Germanakos and Mohd Marzuki Khairul, with Bilal Mohammad Harun also marking a 150th league start, but there will surely be better days for the lot of them. As for Club Dinosauria, they do still retain a midfield that may possibly soon become the core of the national side, and despite Abd El Rahman hitting some recent lows, this was still far more than enough to school the likes of Marzuki, Chad Thach and Lim An Keng at this point in time.

Not that the Birds' younglings actually fared all that bad to begin with, actually. In fact, they would wind up holding the slight preponderance of possession, which might be a feat against opponents of such stature, although there was a start difference in what was done with it. The visitors were never in much real trouble, with the exception of an incident in the 19th minute, when Enrique Baena appeared to drive a cross against Alejandro Pérez Ponce's arm, with the latter mid-jump and turning just inside his penalty area.

Belgian referee Rudolf Houtman would go by the letter of the law there, to loud agreement from the Birds fans in the vicinity, which had Teo line up the penalty with regular taker Bhavya Panigrahi suspended. The 34 year-old had taken a fair few in his time, that acknowledged, and he did his usual standard run-up before knocking it hard and low to the bottom right corner... but not quite accurately enough, with Răducu having guessed correctly too. The blocked ball would fall to Christoph Koren, who immediately hacked it behind.

That was as close as the Birds would come to breaching Răducu's goal today, and the rest of the half would have their midfielders especially running about diligently, but to little end product. It was instead very much Koren's day, as the Austrian defender again found himself in the right place at the right time, though at the other end of the pitch in the 27th minute after a corner. His feinted strike took him neatly past Lim An Keng, before an actual humdinger out of Dimitris Germanakos's reach.

Paulino Trindade would arrive in the second half for Enrique Baena, with Tian Yonghang apparently counting on Trindade's robust approach, but the substitution would only go badly for Grilled. As it was, their entire team would slow markedly, having overexerted themselves in the first half, and Faust Salvans would make it 2-0 with only his second career goal against the Birds. Moey Xin Seng would try to shut Cheah down before he released the pass, but could only catch his trailing leg - and a booking.

Teo would be offered a chance at redemption in the 72nd minute, but even that would go very wrong for him. Chan Ze Han had been all but shut down against Deinos' back five, and it took all his wiles to earn a free-kick at the head of the box, whilst hemmed in by two defenders. Actually, Teo's curler to the top left corner was quite excellent, but Florea Răducu had again seen it coming, and the save would transition into an all-out counterattack through the middle - duly converted by a gleeful Koren.

Well, Koren would not have it all his way as he got warned for half-removing his jersey in his celebrations, and would then be carded for snapping at Moey's heels overexcitably on the restart. The Grilled skipper never gave up, but he would simply not have enough in the tank to physically threaten the Deinos backline, with Chew Long Hock doing an incredible denial job as Grilled poked about for a face-saving consolation goal.

There would be two more goals to come in the final five minutes with the Birds' defenders totally spent, and Gilbert Webb might be reassessing his employment, after Abd El Rahman and then Salvans got their shots off entirely too easily. Even Chan Ze Han looked out of sorts as José Luiz Velho came on for injury time, which saw Ong Chao Ah nearly steal another one - and Cheah booked for a probably uncalled-for late tackle on Chad Thach, as if the match were not sour enough already for the Birds.
