Eternal 2 - 1 PSFC (Fergus, Fergus)
Eternal grab first league win of the season as powerhouse striker Fergus found the net twice against PSFC.
Fergus Gotama shocked the
Korean team with an opener in the 10th minute after a long ball from Irawan.
Eternal started to play less open. But the Korean side remained resilient. They
regained their composure, and continued pressing to give their opponent
something hard to think about during half-time.
PSFC began the second-half with the similar high pressing game. The Korean side were beginning to pose some threat with continuous smart one-touch play. Things were not getting better with the substitution of injured Rusdi. Eternal were losing possession of the ball too many and too quick in the middle of the field.
However, in their haste to find an equalizer, PSFC went two behind. It was Fergus who successfully converted a splitting through pass from right back, Enrico into a counter-attack to the Korean’s high line defense. The powerhouse galloped and outran PSFC’s last defender like he had no limits, before calmly placed it over the keeper.
The second goal did not deter PSFC to keep playing possession football to unlock Eternal’s defense. Exhaustion among Eternal players said it all. PSFC’s effort finally bore a fruit. Park Joon Hyung was able to find the back of Oman’s net through a well set play, leaving Eternal’s defenders beaten. 2-1! When the time was almost run out, the pressure was back on for Eternal. No nonsense clearance and some harsh fouls to PSFC players were made to maintain the lead. Two crucial chances to equalize, a strike from Lee Seung Min, was way over the bar, and one free-header was saved by brave Oman.
The referee, Morales blew the full-time whistle. A goal from the top scorer, Park was not enough, and smiling faces of the victorious side tell the story. FT: Eternal 2 -1 PSFC!
