The art of skidding across the turf...
Yesterday went to kensington for a while, and only 6 members turn up! What is this man, but luckily, with abit of luck, we had alot of fun. I was on the receiving end of a tackle by darren, fell flat onto the bloody floor, took some time before i felt the pain. Haha, but no complains though, it was a good tackle, but abit dangerous cause tio my ankle.
It started raining, and after much consideration, i decided to join in the fun. Water was filling the court, and it was time for the classic goal celebration move again. Skidding across the turf at full stretch, damn super fun, and the 2 foot tackles, too bad jun long was not around. After that it was about all, cause i had to go back to school, and the rest continued the fun.
Recently, there have been reports of molesting in orchard on the new year's eve. Haiz, disappointing really, especially those pervertic singaporeans, it's suppose to be a happy day for everyone, welcoming the new year and everything, it's just a shame really. If its a foreigner, fine, we'll bash the fucking hell out of him, but a singaporean doing it on another of his nationality? That is totally unacceptable, guess there'll be a big decrease in crowd in orchard next year.
Yesterday, or rather this morning was watching the FA cup between luton and liverpool. I was particularly disappointed when i saw the line up for the match. It was a full team, let's not talk about gerrard, but the regulars of the back 4 started, finnan hyypia carragher and riise. I mean come on, at least rest hyypia and carragher, they have played every match of the season, and i do not think it was wise to play them in the FA cup, hello think about the 2nd place there.
Anyway, first half was disappointing. Gerrard scored a superb shot from outside the box, the ball hooked 10 boards into the pocket, and strike! After that it was very much luton's game. The back 4 was looking out of sorts, especially riise, giving away the first goal, and a nice goal by a luton striker. Haha, though commentators was saying that it was a world class goal, i see nothing special about it. A turn and a strike, who can't do that? Maybe he made it look simple.
2nd half came. Gerrard was held back by the luton last man, penalty. I really thought it should have been a red card, and after television replay, it should have been, he was the last man! Cisse took it, and missed it.
At the other end of the field, mistake by hyypia lead to a 1 on 1, and carson dived and missed the ball, and the player fell down, penalty! That i thought it was a definte red card too, but after seeing television replay, i changed my mind, the striker step on the goalkeeper leg which caused him to fall down, to think luton manager still dare to say it was a definite red, and not talking about his defender with his MORE definite red there. Luton with the penalty, goal, 3-1.
Pongolle came on, and well, it paid off. His first goal was a great move, gerrard running on the centre of the park, nobody closing him down, delightful pass to pongolle, and goal, simple and sweet, 3-2. The 2nd needed abit of luck, alonso with the ball, spots the keeper off the line, powers a shot, and i would put it to goalkeeping error, it went in. 3-3. Liverpool were now in control, they were putting cross in ever so frequent, and one of them came out with a goal. Finnan's cross, pongolle header, 4-3. 90th min, goalkeeper joining in the attack, alonso got the ball, skips pass him, with his left foot, hits a 60 yarder, 5-3.
Fantastic comeback by liverpool, gone were those days that the liverpool team would just die down when they are down 2-1 even when they score first. You could see it, the current liverpool team, doesn't back down, whatever the score, whatever the team. I must admit i was very disappointed in the first half, losing by 3-1, and exhausting the players in expense of the epl matches, but yeah, great credit to them.
Luton was very impressive too, played some very nice football in the first half. In the FA cup, its easy to see why there are so many upsets. For example luton and liverpool, the luton players are playing the game with their lives, every 50 50 challenge, they are going all in to retrieve the ball. How can big clubs, fielding their big players, go in with them? Firstly, it's just the FA cup, and secondly, what if they got injured?
Its always easy because its just a one game off for the smaller clubs, but for premiership clubs, its a longer battle than that. Consideration into the epl, and european football must be taken into account.
Man of the match: Gerrard
He is just unbelievable, he literally leads by example, he is just so influential, and as a captain, this is important. Cisse deserves a mention too, because you could see his attitude is slowly but changing now, congratulation to him for wanting to change and looking at the big picture now.
