after reading azam's entry, i suddenly feel like making a new one.
well, first of all, let me start off with faisal's advanced birthday celebration last saturday (23rd june) which took place at ecp pit 19. i expected a huge turnout honestly cos i heard his gf invited not only his secondary mates but also his colleagues, primary sch friends, cousins and ngee ann mates. eme and i reached quite late cos of some stuff. all my close friends were present. i could see that faisal was really happy that day. this coming friday's his birthday, so HAPPY 21ST BIRTHDAY la faisal!the food was great, particularly the ayam la. the rempah ratus beratus the nenek put was very different from all the chickens i've tasted. we became so thirsty after eating that most of us finished the chilled drinks there. so eme and i made our way to 7 11 to buy some water. (she went to mac's toilet first to pee). bumped into abg heerman and kak ayu while we were in 7 11. bought us some drinks and headed back to the pit. we left the place quite late but however, fortunately, we managed to catch the last bus that passes city hall. and what happened after that, i shall not elaborate it here.
i went home feeling quite scared la. diah and i knew that both of us were in trouble.
i miss eme so much.
ok, now, the best part, yesterday!
finally, my team got to go against my family team! and boy, it turned out to be so gooooood. as i expected, the opponents had a lot of possession of the ball, especially during 1st half. i didn't start the 1st half for tactical reasons and i was standing outside, enjoying the game. my dad was great that day. if noone from my team didn't notice him or not impressed by his skills, flair and technique, i would say they're blind. the opponents scored first as Abg Bob put his name first on the scoresheet.
then minutes after that, we gave a penalty to the opponents when Leonie (or whatever his name is) handled the ball very stupidly in our own box. my uncle stepped up..... and shot straight towards Wesley, my goalie, which Wesley cleared with his right foot. still 1-0 down then.. then suddenly yun got injured (or i should say, shagged). coach called me to replace him. my big family that came down to support my family team (they always come down, that's i love the team so much) were cheekily saying aloud, "hero nak masuk ah". coach told me i was going to play my favourite position which is attacking mid.
10 mins went by and i think i only got possession of the ball once though i made some tackles. seconds after that, azam was making a solo attack up front. i decided to follow up in case of loose ball or sthg. and it did happen. i took the loose ball and drove the ball down hard with a half-volley straight to the corner of the goal. 1-1! i felt happy but sorry at the same time. faisal came on in the dying minutes of the 1st half and started the 2nd half but his playing was shortlived cos his tapak boot tercabut. i really pity him la. he must have felt disappointed for not able to contribute much. i didn;t enjoy the 2nd half as much as the 1st one. some people are just not meant to play football la. sorry to say. 15 mins into the 2nd half, something happened. the opponent attacked from the flank and a loose ball went nicely toward my dad. the loose ball came from a height of approximately 4 metres which i dont think any player could volley it nicely..but abah did it and he made it look so easy. the ball went into the top right hand corner. faisal looked at me, lips bridged down on the ends with his head noddin slowly, acknowledging what had happened. i just want everyone to know how great a player my abah is. and from his first-time volley, i'm sure all my teammates know.
we were 2-1 down. then opportunist goal from the opponents made it 3-1. by then, i felt there was no way for us to win. coach replaced me cos he knew i wasn't enjoying and that my right ankle was really giving me difficulties. must be archilles. azam came on when i limped off. the boy really made his chances count. he earned a penalty single-handedly and converted it home. 3-2. taufiq (our unsung hero) made alot of last minute tackles at the back which saved us from further humiliation. he should be the man-of the-match. (not azam hehe). too bad taufiq had to play with under-qualified centre backs. if not for taufiq....haiz.
we attacked alot and one chance came to azam. he had one guy to beat in order to pass the ball to siva or one-on-one with the keeper. the ball was bouncing and he didn't beat the guy. he straight away beat the keeper as he lobbed the ball in. the keeper had a hand to it but the force wasn't there to keep the ball out. the keeper really loooked clumsy when he feell. haha.
3-3! we felt that the match would resulted in a draw. i would very happy to draw with my family team cos i know they're a ver very good team. then in the dying minutes, who else but azam (nampak sah tengah seronok baca ni) brought himself together wit the ball to the flank. he beat my cousin to send a fairly high cross in. siva headed it home and in a blink of an eye, we were up 4-3! and it happened to be the last attack of the game! everyone from my team was elated. to score against my family team is one thing, but to win against them? what do u think?
but whatever it is, i still believe and will always do, that it's much more fun playing for my family team.
and baby....i'm missing u so much.u're on flight and im here at home. waiting for granny to come and help her cook. come home soon k hon. tell u what,i come pick u up later.
