Greendale Plains, Harare, Zimbabwe - Mavericks FC showed true grit and character as Wei Lian's last gasp winner earned them all 3 points in a scrappy affair as the Outsiders edge closer to the title.

A brilliantly measured through-ball from Mavericks midfield talisman Vic split the Zespol defence wide open, as the pacy Wei Lian broke the off-side trap and got on the end of it before slotting it past the keeper with a superb low drive.

The goal sparked mass celebrations among the travelling Mavericks fans in the stands as the league title is now within their grasp with only 4 matches left to play.

The Outsiders were missing several key players such as Desmond, Christiano, Khai, and new signing Ansel as well as Harish and Andy. Due to the chronic lack of striking options upfront, the Outsiders were forced to draft in striker Vincent Lee from their feeder team, Victoria de Guai Lan FC.

The Victoria de Guai Lan Centre is renowned for producing talent from its prestigious elite football academy, much like the Clairefontaine academy in France.

It opened in 1984 and was one of the first schools to receive autonomous status. It is one of the few early city-centre schools still in existence and features two academy buildings from the pre- and post-war period on a single site.

The academy has a high reputation of producing some of the most gifted highly technical players of our time.

Notable academy graduates include cultured centrebacks Seng Yew and Chuanji, the latter who was infamous for breaking the code of conduct of the academy for moonlighting as a sidewalk ball juggler in the late 90's.

Popular title-winning player-manager Jake Tay who is affectionately known as 西方白海豚 (Xī Fāng Bái Hǎitún) or "White Dolphin of the West" during his stint in the academy, was one of the academy's top scholars alongside Harish.

Other academy graduates includes Vic, Barry and Khai who made a name for themselves for getting caught red-handed in the ladies team's shower room. Up till now no one knows what was the exact thing they were doing in there, although Barry insists that they were playing Scrabble.

Going back to the match report, Kee Siang did not get owned by the little Zespol playmaker who was wearing the number 3 jersey. Wanna know why? Coz no one owns Kee Siang.

Kee Siang doesn't have a CTRL button on his keyboard, because Kee Siang is always in control. Kee Siang once whacked a ball at a horse's head. Now the horse is a giraffe. Kee Siang doesn't ever have a bad first touch, coz the ball just gets scared of him and stops by itself at his feet.

Yes. Coz no one owns Kee Siang.

Okayfinethankyoubye. That's it for this match report. Let's continue this winning run! 4 more matches to go. Win them all, and we'll be certified champions! Mavericks Hwaiting!
