As most of the players were late for the match, Mavericks started with 9 men. Luckily, Melwood FC is kind enough to lend us 2 of their players. Mavericks piled on the early pressure by releasing Chung Wei (also known as the" bull") to terrorise the uncles' defence. Zhi Fei once again was the dangerman for us. On the 32nd min, he pulled off a thunderous shot which rocketed against the crossbar.
Mavericks who were missing defensive lynchpin Chuan Ji, were immediately tested by the long balls from the uncles. When the No 9 uncle was put through on the right side, his shot was well saved by the ever reliable Alex. However, on the 40th minute, Melwood was awarded a corner. 1-0! Mavericks defence was exposed again by poor defending in the box. Melwood took the lead with a well taken headed goal. On the 43th min, Zhi Fei went close to scoring with a free header but the effort went just wide.
Second half, the younger boys replace the uncles. One of the guy's gf is hot! Haha. Chin Yuen, Wei Jie and Jiun Wei came on for Mavericks after the interval. Mavericks seemed to stabilise with Jiun Wei and Chris playing in the centre of defence. In the 64th min, Mavericks equalise. 1-1 ! Zhi Fei played a sweet one two with Wei Jie, and Zhi Fei shot powerfully towards the top left hand corner, leaving the Melwood's keeper with absolutely no chance.
However, 5 mins after the equaliser, Melwood scored from the corner again! WTF! Out of nowhere, the Indian guy from Melwood popped up to score a header. Down but not out, Mavericks tried to find a second equaliser. On the 80th minute, Seng Yew missed an indirect free kick inside the penalty box by inches. And the final whistle blew, 2-1 was the final score.
Mavericks is clearly missing the pace of Amir who is been busy dating with Chinese gurls. Lets wish Zhi Fei all the best in Taiwan !!!
