In a
5 pm friendly match against CBCV, ARFC shrugged aside last week’s disappointing
defeat by putting 10 goals without reply past the hapless opponents which
probably only managed less than 5 shots in the match.
ARFC
was watched by Melissa and YY, beau of Hee and Jasper respectively, as well as
Roberto, boyfriend of no girl as yet.
Credit
to Alvin and Soon for coming despite their long-distance run in the morning. Huge
credit to Derrick too (you all know the reason – cannot be disclosed here).

ARFC showed its intent from the word go
and took the lead in the 7th min. Not for the first time, Derrick
and Alvin showed immerse telepathic understanding developed from their kt days
when Derrick dinked in a quick free-kick. Alvin needed no second invitation and
duly dispatched the ball home for his 223rd ARFC goal. 1-0
Guoxiong then underlined his potential
as a centre midfielder when he let fly a 47.77 metre rocket ala Ruud Gullit
that gave their keeper no chance at all. 2-0 and this was Guoxiong’s 19th
ARFC goal.
Curiously enough, Guoxiong was seen
pointing his index finger towards the gate area after scoring as if to give
credit to someone. All ARFC warriors including the reserves then turned to look
towards the direction and spotted one girl who looked totally like our ex-ARFC
warrior, Tong. However, the unidentified girl then quickly ran away from her
spot. Strange-love really….
Blackburn then mimicked Guoxiong’s goal
when he also unleashed a stiff grounder from 47.777 metres for his 134th
ARFC goal. 3-0
In the 2nd half, club
captain Sebastian made his first ARFC appearance in a month after his
self-imposed break.
Within 77 seconds from the re-start,
ARFC scored its 4th goal after Kenny hit a corner-kick right at the
most dangerous area just at the tip of the 6-yard box. Soon dashed in and met
the ball with a thumping header for his 55th ARFC goal. 4-0
77 seconds later, Kenny repeated the
corner routine in an almost replica move. This time round, Jinzhong, who had
such an impressive outing, outjumped everybody and headed the ball goalwards.
The ball looked to be heading out for a goal-kick until Jasper, who also
improved, stuck his left-foot out to divert the goal into the net ala William
Gallas’ trade-mark move. 5-0 and this was Jasper’s debut goal.
After scoring, Jasper sprinted towards
YY and hoisted her up in the air for a full 77 seconds and shouting “I Love YY”
repeatedly at the same time.
Hee then marked his return to ARFC
(also one-month break) by glancing the ball home from Blackburn’s left-wing
cross. 6-0 and this was Hee’s 94th ARFC goal.
After scoring, Hee also speeded towards
Melissa who, however, was busy watching the movie “Frozen” with her ipad and
singing “Let It Go” at the same time.
Weilit then demonstrated why he is fast
becoming ARFC’s most improved player when he exchanged a gem of a wall-pass
with Haron before running in from deep to whip the ball past their exposed
keeper. 7-0 and this was Weilit’s 6th ARFC goal.
Guoxiong then reminded everybody of his
right-wing prowess when he chalked up 3 assists for ARFC’s last 3 goals.
First, he lofted in a ball right into
the 6-yard area which saw their keeper completely missing the ball. Alvin was
the beneficiary when he simply pushed the ball over the goal-line using just
0.77 ounce of his energy for his 224th ARFC goal. 8-0
Haron then grabbed a brace. First,
Guoxiong’s right-wing cross was met with a world-class super-delicious
scissor-kick from Haron that no keeper in this world could possibly save. 9-0
and this was Haron’s 201st ARFC goal.
Then, Sebastian broke clear from his
own half, evaded a few tackles and galloped forward. After exchanging one-two
with Kenny, Sebastian spread the ball out wide to Guoxiong even though he could
have just headed goalwards. Guoxiong immediately fizzed the ball back to the
penalty area and Haron arrived from deep to sweep the ball goalwards. The ball
hit the underside of the cross-bar and bounced over the line. 10-0 and this was
Haron’s 202nd ARFC goal.
There was still time for Chun Haw to
grab a hat-trick if not for his 3 amazing misses. First, he shot into Row X.
Seconds later, he skied the ball into Row Y and seconds later, he ballooned the
ball to Row Z. Wasted!
These are the voting results:
Jinzhong – 11
Guoxiong – 11
Weilit – 9
Alvin – 5
Haron – 4
Darren – 3
Blackburn – 2
Derrick – 2
Toh – 2
Jasper – 2
Kenny – 1
Hee – 1
Ron – 1
