Epic F.C Vs The Awesome

All the pre-match hype!
All the pre-match violence!
All the pre-match laughter!

Fun game. Epic F.C played really well, with Goalkeeper Joseph Blay holding off a barrage of shots to keep the Epic side in the game. Geoff 'lion' Keuk scored first, dribbling down the wing to blast a shot at the near post. The keeper deflected the shot, only to have it rebound across the goals and bounce into the far corner, past the last-ditch effort from Joe.

Epic F.C played well for the rest of the first half, and the scoreline reading 2 - 0 at half time, after a speedy blast from Miguel.


The second half was far more exciting. Again, the goalkeeper played well and kept his team in the game, until an unfortunate back pass lead to a penalty.
Initially, milkboy stepped up to shoot against colourblindboy. However, Conor Richards stepped up and calmly slotted the goal past Joe.

The next goal came from a fantastic effort from the penalty scorer, putting his side up 4 - 0.

Then with just a minute to go, the referee made a ridiculous decision. Geoff was struggling in a tackle with Matthew, and was able to just get his shot away from the edge of the D. It looked to be a goal, before a big glove from the keeper shot between his legs and stopped the ball, clearly 10 Cm in front.
How the referee saw it as a goal is beyond me. I'm not making this up either, it really wasn't a goal.

This actually evened out though, because Geoff had another shot disallowed, that was saved, then rebounded off the post, and actually went in. The referee called it to be not over the line. So Geoff' goals stayed the same.

A really physical match, Epic F.C played really well.

Joe had lots and lots of good saves. Pretty average throwouts though, could have done a lot better.
Conrad was super speedy, playing a very attacking style of game but still defending well.
James played a great all round game.
Blaise was a gun, as always.
Wong defended really well, stopping Geoff 'lion' Kuek on many occasions.
Jordan had a few decent efforts and played well up forward.

This is so much more accurate doesn't say that people were being too rough or were bad sports.
