The weekend is in 2 days and our inaugural match in ESPZEN is in sight. Our first match will be against HELO Football Club who won their first game 5-2. Thus, they will be in high spirits come this Sunday. However, do not place your bets yet as ESFC has been on a roll with 5 wins and a draw in their last six games. The game will be a tight encounter.
Looking at the opponents, they are all from the high-flyers club, as most of them have spent or are spending their time high up among the clouds as pilots, stewards to name a few. After a good start to the tournament, HELO FC will want to continue their winning streak against ESFC. The ESFC players will have to take note that these high-flyers may takeoff easily when challenged.
In order to start on the right note, ESFC are going to field the strongest side ever, lest Eugene Ong who is still dogged with injuries and Jason Ang who has flown off to Taiwan to find his long-lost lover from his previous Taiwan trips. We also welcome back Nathan Ang from his fight to be in the Dean's List and also Tan Yen Hao from his diving trip in Taiwan. Much to the delight of Muhd Adib, he has been restored to centre midfield in the absence of Jason Ang. He hopes to bring a Scholesy-like aura into the team this Sunday after watching Man Utd down Messi(ah)-inspired Barca 1-0. With Nathan back between the post, let's hope the lob shots which Ngak saved last week will be saved by Nathan this coming Sunday. Joining Zhong at the back after more than 3 years will be Nizar. The successful pairing of these two no-nonsense defenders with speed as fast as lightning will surely be pivotal, just like the brown-ferdinand pairing yesterday. Completing the back 4 will be Sinting and WeiLin. The wings will be terrorised by Captain Tan Boon Han and his sidekick Ri Peng while the midfield will be anchored by the Josh "the Bull" Kho. Completing the line up is the SGS pairing of Figo and Jason Chew upfront. Speaking on behalf of the team, cameraman Then Kim Yuan has told reporters that he expects everyone to play their role in this upcoming big match. Quoted from Mr Then, "No matter where you play, play for the team. Even though there's 'ME' in 'tEaM', 'Me' is nothing if u look at how Barca expected MEssi to finish off the game for them". To sum it up, there will be 4 substitutes this Sunday who are all ready to fill in the ranks if there's any injury.
