This Weekend's Football...

Saturday's games are for the Coca-Cola League. And S2's team won yesterday's game...7-3.

Today's game was for Greenfields Cup, which is similar to FA Cup, i.e. teams are knocked-out each round. Today's game was tough. S2's C-Team against the A-Team of the American school. H actually told S2 that he will give each and every team member of S2's team USD 50 bucks if they win today's game. And S2 went to tell his team mates. HeeHee...
H was very confident and said "my money is very safe!". Bad. I know. But quite true.
This morning, before the game... S2 was still talking about the cash prize of USD 50 bucks for every team member, and H replied "Just don't lose more than 10 to Nil". Hahhaha
Did S2's C-Team surprised us with a win?
Of course not. They lost 1-10, which was not unexpected. This means that they are out of the Greenfields Cup (which means no more Sunday games).

S2's team did let in some easy goals, plus one own goal. Their regular goalkeeper is usually quite good. But today, he seemed to be in a daze.
S2 did some GREAT saves though, with his head, his chest etc. So many times... that even after the game, the referee was making comments about S2's saves with his body parts! Hahahah
These saves did come with a slight price though. After the 2nd quarter, I saw that S2 looked abit off...and then he still continued on for the 3rd quarter. By the middle of the 3rd quarter, he couldn't tahan anymore and asked to leave the pitch. Had to see the attending First Aid Officer - who gave him some isotonic drinks as well as ice-packs for his head.

S2's friend. LD played for the B-Team. Unfortunately, they lost too. 2-7. We took the boys to TimeZone on the way home....to reduce their "sorrow" of defeat. :-)
