ESFC, or rather what was left of it, returned to the Yishun pitch after the dramatic end of last season's title-losing game. To be succinct, ESFC have some of the most loyal fans and a team full of players who are very talented, hard working, and dedicated to the cause. However, the day started with only 8 players, with one having extreme hangover and the other praying to God he won't get mobilized during the match, plus 1 hot prospect who, everyone thought was Darren at first but minus the antics and Oscar-award winning rolling and diving.
Game started with an 3-4-1 formation with Wx in goal, Weilin, Eugene and Hanting in defence and Adib, who arrived late and took an eternity to warm up, to play the centre-midfield role with Jason Ang and Kim. "Darren-MarkII" played on the Left of midfield and Nathan completed the puzzle with his Emile Heskey style striking role.
Well, ESFC lost 4-3 against a side who fielded 11 players plus a sub on the bench. But the opponents struggled against the valiant ESFC players who kept them on their back foot to play catching up for the most part of the game.
Bench-warmer expert Adib showed his prowess in front of goal to score two and assist another for Darren-MarkII who also scored on his impressive debut. Cries of "RAMESH, get this Indian off the bench!" were heard from the foreign workers crowd that had gathered to watch the Bollywood star playing for ESFC.

Wenxiong was a lucky boy he wasn’t sent off for his rash challenge on an opponent and his "save" from the penalty spot. There have been murmurings amongst the supporters that the midfield destroyer really destroys people and cries of "Paul Scholes" were also heard among the sports analysts.
Good game guys! Hope you enjoyed it.
