The earlier heavy rain which stopped before 3 pm was a great blessing . Weather was cool and ground, soft -just perfect for soccer! 20 players were present with 18 staying till the end.
Kevin led in devotion which was taken from Mathew 5: 16 “ Let your light so shine before men , that they may see your good works and glorify your father in heaven “ He reminded that we are called to be salt and light in this world and to reflect the glory of God .
Randy (new but experienced veteran player joining us for the first time) captained the Blues while Ronnie, the Whites . Each team had quite a balance number of youths and veterans.
Glenn opened with the 1st goal at close range just at the tight angle of the post.
John went on to score another 2 goals soon after:
1st goal beating the goalkeeper on a 1 on 1 and 2nd goal following a rebound.
So, it was 3 goals for the Whites and 0 for Blues in the 1st half..
Returning back for the 2nd half after briefing by the respective captains , the match proceeded more aggressively with more goals scored . ( 6 more ) .
Here’s how they were scored:
Ronnie did 1 with a long range outside penalty box.
Jingzhong dribbled past Whites to score 1 at close range.
Damien did the same also to score 1 at close range .
Glenn pushed in1 following a rebound at close range .
Kevin forcefully pushed in 2 goals ; 1 toward the extreme left post and another occasion , toward the extreme right post …….touching the inner post then into the net.. With the extreme positioning, even the most experienced goalkeeper would have found it a nightmare! Well done Kevin!
The 2nd half ended with 4 goals for the Whites and 2 goals for the Blues.
Final Score :
Whites - 7
Glenn ( 2) John ( 2) Ronnie (1) Kevin (2)
Blues - 2
JingZhong (1) Damien (1)
The session ended with Adrian leading us in the closing prayer.
