First Win of the Season

Tusser player Wan Yuan was almost lost for words to know his stunning strike proved the difference in the much anticipated match up In Turf City. A reliable source revealed that his shot was an intention one once he saw the BI keeper off his line. As they always say you never strike the lottery if you don buy the ticket and that's precisely what he did.

Tusser went into the game with a junk of first team still players missing in action. Nevetheless Tusser was expected to perform well after playing well from an impressive friendly a week before. The versatile Francis have to stand in for Wenjie in the 1st half who was late and was relieved that he had little trouble from the BI attacks.

The honours were even till 17 mins when the shot from just outside the centre circle. Bi was made on the backfoot for most of the 1st period. The accolades for MOM Jit Tong are coming thick and fast. His dazzling close control dribbles and some flips & turns would have made Rio Ferdinand a fool in defense. He was the heart of every move. I thought we deserved to go into the break one up.

BI with some changes in personnel looks set to bring the game to parity. Tusser cannot keep up their good showing in the 1st half. BI have shots at goal coming thick and fast and with one of those being blocked out by a tremendous ONE handed save from Wenjie. The howler of the game being our striker needing only a simple touch into the open goal but how on earth it was not done was left much to be desired. The Tusser SHUT OUT team managed to prevail till the final whistle was blown.

The team shown lots of characters in the game which we will have to do alot this season. Not to forget the team effort in getting our first points in the Top flight.

Juz wan to mention Tusser style of play constitutes that there is no star in the team. Everyone's contribution in On & Off field is paramount to our success. The committee is hoping that we can see different players stepping up and into the MOM list.
