Man of the Match
Tough fight between Luqman, Kevin, Bernard.
But the clean sheet did give Luqman the upper hand.

Finally a clean sheet. 5 games into the tournament, we were finally able to defend properly without any lapse of concentrations or blunders. Not that Carrera FC played particularly well, and also, the team we played against today was by far the weakest team we have played this year. The 1-0 victory definitely showed that we did not play well at all. 1-0, I believe, not enough.

On the positive side, we were also finally able to control a game. stroke the ball around comfortably, although there were a lot of room for improvements. The return of Kevin and Bernard to the starting line-up no doubt added flair and composure to our game. And with Luqman playing well today, this was no doubt the best team Carrera FC can play with thus far.

However, the commitment for the game was not very apparent. Time and time again, players over dribble, passes went astray, and attackers not taking their chances. And despite the amount of control and possesion we had, we were not able to penetrate. The goal in the second half was actually the only real chance we had in the entire game.

Good defending yes. But definitely not a good victory. It should have at least been more emphatic. Still a young team. Still improving.

Go go Carrera!
