ESFC's second encounter with the impressive ECFC culminated in yet another stalemate.
The Sundays drew first blood thanks to a confident shoot-oh from the prolific Nizar, after being fed a brilliant through-ball by midfield maestro Pengco. The burly opposition captain then equalized for his team as he blasted a powerful shot beyond the reach of our keeper's gloves. Not before long, our very own captain then led by example and retook the lead as Boon cleverly rounded the keeper before calmly passing the ball into the empty net.
ECFC re-equalized with a great solo effort by SIM psychologist Terence, but the Malay-Portuguese (?) Nizar demonstrated his predatory instincts for all to see as his positioning allowed him to finish off a rebound. ECFC then brought it back to square one again for the third time running, but I forgot how.
Goalkeeper Nathan edged striker Nizar to the coveted MotM award with outstanding saves and an unerring, sterling performance between the posts.
Both teams had chances aplenty thereafter to secure victory but they all went begging. All in all, a fantastic match for the neutral!
