Eternal 2-1 Kooyong A
Goal: Adam(2)
A mirrored result of the 1st match ! In a similar manner as the previous match, we had a very good possession of the ball and scored the first through Adam's brilliant volley. Shortly after that, Kooyong A was awarded with a penalty. Credit to our goalkeeper, Dicky saved the penalty in magficent style. Very good save. Unfortunately, Before the end of the second half, they managed to equalise through a supperb effort from their right winger.
Then, we have to admire the speech given by their manager/captain during the halftime because it sure gave them a boost on the second half. We were heavily attacked and had very little possession. I would like to give credits to all defenders, JP in particular. JP stood firm and was the commander-in-charge to our impregnable fortress defence. In the frontline, thin Albert and Adam had to be Kooyong A's defenders worst nightmare. Thin Albert and Adam were superior in pace and better ball control. One long ball for them was enough, Adam capitalised on the counter-attack and dashed Kooyong A's dream from the quarter-final.
Against all odds, without Fergus and Chris, Eternal FC annihilated Kooyong A. A prove that we have great character and depth in squad. Not only the first eleven but all of us were ready to play in competitive level. Salute to all Eternal FC players and supporters.
The game was also our first victory against them. A memorable one, especially the two brilliant goals from Adam and they were enough to demolish them.
2-1 victory against Hade and Kooyong A? I hope we did give a loud and clear indication to the rest of the teams. On our side, lets not be complacent because there are still many games ahead of us.
Man of the match(Editor's pick): Adam
I had a hard time deciding between JP, Adam and Mono. But i think Adam deserved it this time. 2 goals and terrorised their defence throughout the whole game !
I will post the fixtures tomorrow, sorry for the delay !
