Week 2 Report

Eagles FC     2   -   0     Headhunters FC

Eagles held on to their winning streak with a 2-0 win over Headhunters, with a quick goal in the 8th minute by Mmediong who headed the ball right over Gk Marko. Eagles had more chances to attack in the likes of Fejiro, Nadun, Mmediong, Landy and Kimu while Headhunters played a more defensive mode. In the second half, Headhunters were given a free kick right outside the box but Avinash failed to materialize. Marko notably made a few good saves but Landy managed to score in the 55th minute, with a cross by Nadun from the left. Man of the match was Nadun.

Kelkatu FC     6   -   0     Pappadam FC

Fresh from an epic win last week, Kelkatu once again took 3 points home. Kelkatu played a very offensive game with tries by Tompoq, Ringo and Mamat and all that paid off after 16 minutes when Azam scored. Less than 10 minutes later, Azam crossed a stunning ball to Mamat, who headed the ball into the back of the net. Determined to be unbeatable, Mamat scored another goal just one minute later, dribbling right pass the gk's nose. Into the second half, Farouk crossed a ball to Amirul, who added to the score line, 3 to none. 2 minutes later, Amirul returned the favor and Farouk scored. A penalty was then conceded by Pappadam's Tamil due to a hand ball inside the box. Tompoq took the penalty, and he took it well. Before the game ended in Kelkatu's favor, Tamil was shown another yellow, adding up to a red, and will be banned for one match. Man of the match was Kelkatu's Farouk.

Rivals FC     1   -   3     Trinity FC

Back from a disappointing loss last week, Trinity came back to the field determined to win. Munya added the 2nd goal to his league with a top left corner goal in the 14th minute. Jorden had an upsetting miss when his shot went wide after a one on one with the gk Kuda. Taha's shot 2 minutes later also went just above the post. 7 minutes into the second half, Trinity scores again thanks to a stunning goal by Baller, who left-footed the ball into the goal as Tammam watched on. Rivals' defense was notably a bit off that day. 10 minutes later, Shepherd scored after making a terrific run from the center line and passing the defense. In the 51st minute, Martin was shown a yellow for rough push on Taha, who scores the lone goal for Rivals, after a cross by Lingesh. Man of the match was Baller.

Galacticos FC     1   -   0     UFC

This match resulted in a flurry of emotions among everybody; disappointment on Galacticos' behalf and impressiveness on UFC's. Galacticos are very evidently missing previous sem's players such as PK and Celestine. They however, had the upper hand of the match with tries by JJ, Venket, Steve and Mohsen but none of the tries made it to goals. In the 28th minute, UFC's Naqi made a very interesting defensive move by slapping off Steve's free kick and was given an instant red card (will be banned for 2 matches). Steve takes the penalty and takes the lead for Galacticos. Galacticos had a few more chances to add up to the score through Danny Ooi and Kelvin but they were saved by UFC's Gk Basil. In the 55th minute, UFC had the chance to equalize when Ragu took a shot when the defense was clear but it hit the top of the post instead. Man of the match was Ralph, for preserving the defense.
