Bishan eleven - 3
Team Vasantham - 1 (Yang)
It was a game that we should be proud about.. we played against an excellent team and nearly got a result. After going into an early lead, we defended superbly - David, Jag, Gary, Dass, Sasi and Kathir were outstanding.. however we must understand that everybody must be given a chance to play and i apologise for my intentional dismantling of the defence. Even then, i felt that we gave them a good game and nearly scored.. prakash hitting the post, me missing the penalty and the follow-up (Sorry guys.. will never give vinod grief concerning his miss anymore!). A performance we can be proud of...
MOTM - The entire defence including our superb keeper SASI (Want to be permenant Keeper or not?.. hehe)

First Defeat... but
Northeast Blacks - 4
Team Vasantham - 2 (Blondie, Vinod)
Even though we lost our first game this year, i think there are more pertinent things we have to think about.. first of all, we must realise that the important thing about playing is not winning, it is communicating as a team and enjoying ourselves. the moment we do not have fun, there is no point playing at all. mistakes are part and parcel of the game and even if we win, there is no trophy to be won.. jsut the friendly banter between brothers. Can we imagine playing WITH each other when we can't stand one another.. that is unthinkable. Come on guys.. lets get together and overcome this!
Next game - Saturday 26April 2008 3pm at Bowen Sec

What a Comeback!!
Team Vasantham - 4 (Maran, Deva, Sasi, Kanna (Blondie))
SAFSA Veterans - 4
A remarkable comeback, after being down 4-0 at half time! It has to be said that everyone played their heart out and ran for every single ball in the 2nd half. Well done guys, it was one of those legendary memories that will stay with us for a long time. Kudos to Kanna (Tarzan), Kathir and Gajen who changed the system and solidified the midfield and all the strikers scored. The fact that the opponents congratulated us at the end of the game and said, 'Great comeback' guys was a compliment to all of us who played that day. Our heart must go out to Rush who injured himself and might be out for some time. Msg to him: take care bro, we need u back asap and will be praying for you.
However we do need to be more tighter in coming games. Tc guys and see u all nxt game.
MOTM - Gajen - 4 assists leading to 4 goals - the main instrument of our comeback. Also kudos to deva for running his heart out.
