Playing FC Simpang for the 2nd time in the league, ARFC took the lead but self-destructed in the last 15 mins to go down 1-4 at the poor East Spring SS pitch.
ARFC welcomed back Wayne who was out with a shoulder injury suffered after scoring his debut ARFC goal in the 5-1 win over Team Kangtao on 22 Aug 2010. However, he has to be contented with a place on the bench together with his smoke-drink-sex buddy Tjioe.
ARFC started with this line-up:
Keeper: Chun Haw (talented 14 year-old keeper)
Right-back: Marauding Guoxiong
Sweeper: Astute-reading sweeper Elvis (captain)
Stopper: Towering Toh
Left-back: Unbeatable Darren
Right-mid: Dynamic Soon
Centre-mid: Combative Ron
Centre-mid: Influential Sebastian
Left-mid: Unpredictable Blackburn
Striker: Powerful Alvin
Striker: Speedy Hee
Subs:
Wayne
Hard-man Tjioe
The first half was evenly matched and Hee impressed with his relentless pressure but was unable to score. Alvin also showed his prowess by cutting in from the left but his shot hit the side-netting.
1st-half ended goalless.
In the 2nd half, chances were far and few though ARFC threatened with a couple of corners and free-kicks.
The break-through finally arrived in the 67th min. Tjioe did very well to win a foul right at the edge of their penalty box. Wayne joined their defensive wall and Sebastian steadied himself to take the free-kick. Wayne then broke away, creating a hole in the wall and Sebastian duly obliged by firing in a low shot that went through the hole vacated by Wayne to wrong-foot their keeper who was anticipating a high curling ball. 1-0 and this was Sebastian’s 75th ARFC goal, ¾ to the centurion mark but would probably take another 10 years to reach the 100-goal mark.
Strangely enough and to the huge surprise of the crowd, ARFC conceded 4 goals in the last 15 mins to go down 1-4.
