ESFC 7 - Frolics 1


How unfortunate for Frolics to succumb to a 7-1 drubbing at the hands of ESFC, in a performance almost in similar fashion to the fortunate 7-1 drubbing of the villains by team Chelski the night before.

In a game littered with defensive mishaps and 'even-my-grandma-can-score'(EMGCS) sitters, Frolics drew first blood when a defensive mishap between a surprisingly depressed Wak and Lionel resulted in an early goal.

But, ESFC finally prevailed, with midfield emokia Boon snatching a handsome hattrick. And even more handsome Sinting also got his season going with a handful of strikes, despite missing a couple(perhaps more?) of EMGCS sitters. Not to mention Nathan's predatory instincts while latching onto the end of Figo's cross, which means he has now scored in every match this season. Lastly, Waki Alves sought a moment of redemption by scoring a scorcher of a freekick ala boon.

Surely, this will set the tone for the rest of the season, with the welcoming return of midfield anchorman Jason Ang sure to boost the play of the team and proving that the losses of the much maligned Kim Hargreaves to injury, Josh to the sharks at sea and Chew at the hands of the benchwarmers in Changi Village, were not sorely missed by the team.

Kudos to the team and a quick recovery to Kim!
