They Be Musters
Mohd Marzuki Khairul, who bagged a brace today, admitted that he was greatly disappointed at the team letting two points slip between the fingers at the final call. "And after we had put in all that work to come back thrice, too!" he grumbled. "You can't hate Maher for doing what he had too, though - those strikes were pure class."
There would be no change in Grilled's table position, as they remained in fourth after newbies are newbies drew two-all with Queenstown MZKs, which also had the latter's Combo M'Madi sustain a late injury after scoring the opener. Singapore Red Dragons kept on soaring, though Glory Paradiso made things interesting in mounting a three-goal rally to make it 4-3, while Joker 9 defeated Bukit Regency 3-2 to move up to sixth.
Farmer Bunnies' terrible season would continue, as they were hit for three by frunzelite within ten minutes, despite their vaunted defence. It was all over after Felipe Rubio Gómez, Zainal Zain and Klaus-Philipp Ommers tore the Buns backline apart, but
Gilberto Sorondo's apoplectic outburst after the third did at least stem the bleeding.
"What can I say?" Iranian defender
Koushan Khatibi shook his head.
Dragon Devil's overtook Moeinsingapore at the top with a 3-1 away win, as Yang Feng Da worked the lines diligently, but could not get more than one goal. Crypto Moon punished AMDK FC 8-0 despite Uvindu Wijesuriya missing a penalty, with Maurizio Fresu notching up a hat-trick, as did Leong Beng Kian for Featureship FC in their Pasir Ris Corsairs gimmie.
Grilled International's fortunes got no better either, but there were glimpses of hope in their narrow 1-2 away loss to Nicaragua's Miki Muster;
Chua Jun Long put one away in the 16th minute after one of the best starts that International had enjoyed all season, only for Gil Cordero to reply on a 25th minute counter. Still, International were good value for a point, up until Juan Carlos Vanegas Arroyo won it with an incredible free-kick, eight minutes from the end.
CD Barcelota maintained their five-point lead at the top with a commanding 4-1 victory over FC Cuba Lötschen, despite Andrey Edlin's brave rally early on. No gun but Roses FC would depend on a lone David Russell's goal against LEGIA GDAŃSK 2017 to keep pace on points, while Atletico Zvedza CF and DAB Ceuta slugged it out in an exhausting one-all draw.
