Corsairs Sunk
There would be a great whoop at The Pot after the final whistle, as the home fans beheld the team's most impressive result in some weeks. "It has been a tough period, what with us losing so many of our top strikers just like that." attending supporter Alice Loke beamed. "But the boys really did us proud today!"
Birds skipper
Ha Qicai had the same sentiment. "We weren't intimidated and took the game to them, which was half the battle won. Conceding that early goal would have crushed some teams, but not us."
The upset limited Singapore Red Dragons' perfect streak in II.2 to three games, which allowed Arcturules to catch up on nine points with their 2-0 over Joker 9 - admittedly from many more chances. newbies are newbies sit level with Grilled Birds on seven with Chen Meng Heng's penalty winner versus unlucky Glory Paradiso, while Bukit Regency got an unlikely 3-0 win at Queenstown MZKs, courtesy of a Almar Heideman brace.
Farmer Bunnies secured their first points in II.4 as they destroyed Pasir Ris Corsairs 6-0, as
Ho Ah Kian contributed two in the second half after a rare start. Before that,
Lee Yau Tong,
Ong Li Jing,
Amaya Ravula and
Dušan Václavík all had a go, as Corsairs gave little impression of knowing what they were doing.
Still, the Buns sit no higher than sixth, with Moeinsingapore overtaking Crypto Moon at the top with Mariano Clementz stealing the points in stoppage time, as it ended 1-2. AMDK FC too overtook Crypto Moon on goal difference with Ramón Ismael Coria leading them to a 4-1 over still-winless Featureship FC, while Dragon Devil's came back against frunzelite for another 2-1, with all goals coming in the final fifteen minutes.
Buns captain
Dušan Václavík observed a very tight league in the making. "I don't think we will be involved in the title chase, but it won't be easy for anyone."
Grilled International completed the trifecta with their 2-1 result at home, as they gained their first victory after promotion with Poland's LEGIA GDAŃSK 2017 visiting. Benjamín Paredes flicked it past
Darshana De Abrew in the tenth minute of this clash of the bottom-dwellers, but an inspired
Mohsen Zeynali dragged International back from the brink as he attacked Pang Renlong without fear.
That lifted International off the basement of H.I. IV.5 too, as CD Barcelota's unstoppable run continued with their 2-0 away taming of Miki Muster, coming despite a late chest injury to Aarón Traima. No gun but Roses FC were held 3-3 by DAB Ceuta with José Wilson on fire for the Spanish hosts, with Atletico Zvedza CF whipping FC Cuba Lötschen 5-0, with the latter now also without Northern Irish striker Samuel Vokac for two weeks.
