The first game of the League 2009 got off to a winning start for Promisedland, beating YGOS 2-1. From two wonderful freekicks from Hafiz. However, the game was won not by the free kicks, but it was won instead by a brilliant team effort. The whole formation worked and the players played to their strengths. It was diffcult to select a man of the match from this game as few of the players put displayed match winning performances.
Thanks to Shawn for taking the pictures, but i suggest that next game, try to take the pictures nearer.
here are the ratings:
Dani - 9/10. Played well between the sticks, putting in some wonderful saves that kept us in the game. In the 85th minute, stretched out well to palm the ball away in mid air for a goal bound shot.
Christian - 8/10. Still put in a good performance on the right side, calm in defence, kept the opponent's main striker at bay for most of the game.
Darren - 8/10. It was together with Christian's work on the right side that the defence was well balanced. Used his sweet left leg to great efficency. A threat on the freekicks on the right too.
Ashraf - 10/10. Defintely man of the match candidate. Covered all the grounds in defence. Putting his giant frame in great effect, also listened to coach's advice in keeping his hands away from opponents and not resulting in any fouls conceded. BRILLIANT
Haikal - 8/10. Cool head in defence, needs to concentrate more to push his team up. Putting in some timely tackles.
Darrik - 7.5/10. First game on the right flank, was rather nervous, but still manage to trouble the left side of the opponents, after switching into the centre, manage to find his ground again.
Darryl - 8/10. A constant threat down the left side. Good ball skills that helped the team keep the ball. Needs to be more hungry for goals.
Haifz - 9/10. Two freekicks goals, held the midfield well, improved alot from last year. needs to work on fitness more.
Alif - 10/10. Man of the match. Running his lungs out, covered alot of ground in defence. Sticked to his task for the first half, hence manage to keep the opponents out together with Hafiz. Keep up the good performance.
Hong Teck - 7/10. Few good touches and reading of the game. Needs more presence up front to pressurize the defence. Needs some goals to get the tempo.
Fredrick - 7/10. First full game. Inexperience showed, however will improve with more games to come. Defintely will start scoring goals.
Subs: Farhan 7/10, Jordan 7/10
Nice game to manage and also a good display from the team. Keep it up, lets show all the other teams how football is played.
See ya.
Coach Andy

I would like to thank my mother, my father for giving birth to me because without them I will not be a candidate for this match. I would also like to thank my members for supporting me all the way. May Man U stay united forever.
