ODS were conned again after being informed that they would be facing a veteran team. End up, the opponents are only in their 20s at most. And to make things even more worrying, at kick off, ODS only had 9players. Thankfully, we managed to loan a few players from the NUS Medical Team who had an earlier game.
With enough players for kick-off, the game finally underway.
The opponents took the kick-off. But right from the start, ODS applied immerse pressure. The opponents lost the ball after only a few touches. And Daryl won the ball on the right and sprint down the flank.
What looks like a cross, the ball beats the keeper who failed to hold on to the ball and allowed it to drop behind him into the goal.
1-0
After the restart, ODS continued to apply the pressure from the top, with Liang Han and Ken Wong forcing the opponents to make mistakes and thus concede a corner to ODS on the right.
Kim Chuan went over to take the corner. An in-swinger to the far post where Liang Han made a diving header to connect with the ball (although it hit his shoulder instead)to put ODS 2goals up in less than 3minutes on the clock.
2-0
ODS continued to control the game, with Kee Yong not touching the ball, not even for a goal kick.
Kim Chuan and Liang Han terrorised the left flank with their bust of pace and strength.
In the next corner, again on the right, Kim Chuan went over to take it again.
But this time, it was Ken Wong who managed to escape his marker and got to the ball first and diverted the ball with a flicking header at the near post for his 2nd goal in as many matches.
3-0
With that, Daryl Lim, scorer of the first goal took his exit for another GP, William.
William and Ken Wong combined well to win another few corners on the right.
Kim Chuan, with his left foot, put in some good in-swinging crosses that troubled the keeper. Unfortunately, ODS was unable to extend the lead.
William and Chun Ci, both GP, took their leave for Chee Mun and Irwin respectively.
ODS next had a strong call for a penalty when Liang Han was brought down in the penalty area. However, the referee waved off the appeals for a penalty and gave a freekick on the edge of the box instead. The opponent was shown a yellow card for his 2-footed launch at Liang Han.
Ken Wong stepped up to take the freekick. He curled the ball over the wall. Just as the ball appears to be dipping in over the keeper. The keeper managed to barely tip the ball over the crossbar.
Ken Wong then came off for Hairy.
ODS attacks seem to be never ending. And Kee Yong only had to make just one save in the first half.

The opponents seemed to have a really good pep-talk during half time and they came back faster and stronger in the second half.
Tony was called upon to make a few good saves and Rosk and Mark Penu maintained a really good chemistry in the heart of defence. Therefore, even though the opponents had more chances at goal, a clean sheet still seem likely for ODS today.
Up front, Kee Yong was enjoying himself up front. During one counter attack, Kim Chuan played a beautiful through-ball for Kee Yong to race onto. Kee Yong took the ball first time and smashed it past the keeper to put the game beyond the opponent's reach.
4-0
ODS nearly scored another great goal, a move sparked off when Ken Wong won the ball in a tackle before running down towards goal. Liang Han was calling for the ball to be squared to him. Ken Wong did just that, feeding Liang Han at his feet. Liang Han then feed the ball to Irwin who was running behind him. Irwin side-stepped the ball to the far post and it seemed destined to be heading in but the keeper dived and made a full stretch save and pushed the ball out for a corner.
The game took a turn for some ugly scenes with Ken Wong earning a yellow card for a push on the opponent. Rosk also got his name in the referee's book for a late challenge. The worst of the evening was when the opponent tried to prevent keeper Tony from releasing which warrants a yellow card. And as he has already been booked for his tackle on Liang Han in the first half, he was shown a second yellow and the red card. Refusing to leave the pitch immediately, he had a heated debate with the referee and show the referee some nasty hand signals including a middle finger sign. On his way out, he even mouthed the "F word" at Tony which nearly spark a melee. Luckily, ODS players are matured enough to control their temper.
ODS failed to take advantage of the situation of having an additional man on the pitch and failed to score more goals.
With that, ODS recorded a huge win which suggests that the form is back.
Next week game is confirmed at 5pm at Victoria School.
Players, please be punctual.

Dear all esp the honorable ODS committee,
I'm not sure whether i can congratulate ODS for this 'victory'.Allow me to disrobe my mitigating factors;
(1) Punctuality has been the cornerstone of our success.Latecomers without excuse must be 'served' appropriately.
(2) Using of 'guest players'has gone to farcical levels,at the rate we going, we can activate the banglas renovating the VS indoor hall....
ODS committee, pls do look into this as i'm perturbed that we are glorifying actions on the field but we fail to do what is NECESSARY in order to be ON the field.Thank you and good evening.
Mr O
Hi,
I would like to find out who wrote this report as Ken Wong was mentioned 8 Times and he's Still not celected as MOM. Why?
Tony
Tony, you are right!!! Clearly, Ken Wong single handedly was instrument in the win based on the match report. I also wonder why KW was not nominated. I think next game must have a match inspector to verify the voting.
wah...
don't say until like that ma..
e only instrumental thing i did was to loan 3GP to start e game for us...
haha...
n please lah...
Kim Chuan was on top form that day...
Next report I mention more of Tony's actions k..
Ken Wong will be 'Man of the Match for match report section'........ excluding performances off the field.there you go,your first award in ODS team.
Dear ODS committtee, Mr I called me a 'shitstirrer' after my first comment on the blog.it's natural as he was one of them......
Mr O(just a normal,humble, dutiful,civic-minded player)
I had actually listed down all the names of the latecomers for this game. But Hairy has somehow managed to omit that...
=P
and anyway Mr O,
are you just upset that we managed to score such a huge victory without you???
Tony >> you can know who write the report by refering to the 1st line in red, if it's missing, then it's written by default the web editor
KW >> if u like to make things more difficult to maintain by also maintaining the list of latecomers, you are most welcome and MAKE SURE EVERY GAME you do it for us. I dont see a point cos no one got the fine so far (what i could clearly remember was only 2 guys paying their fine without any excuses). Next, those late on the previous saturday was due to WORK COMMITMENT before the game and not because they chose to be late.
Mr H,
relax lah...
y so worked up???
chill chill...
Mr KW >> find your facts first before we speak, whatever the case i will be more happy to add the late comers name in if you take up the responsibility of doing it week in and week out. Then you can also generate it as a report to pass to Gary so that he can collect the fine$
I was one of the 2 guys who ever paid the fine.fyi......
Mr O
