DRM v Majapahit FC Match Summary

For the 2nd game in a row, DRM's Gaffa was nowhere in sight at kick-off, and this time around the DRM kit and drinks were no where to be seen either! Instead he was holed up in some stupid &^"£-ing meeting where the big honchos of this company lost sight of reality and started talking gibberish. Not surprisingly, he walked out of that meeting feeling very lost and dazed!

The DRM game went ahead anyways, the opponents luckily had a spare yellow and grey kit which we borrowed and Vincent very generously put up some of his own $$ for some 100 Plus from BSRC. Can't say much about the 1st half as i wasn't there, except for the fact that it ended 0-0 at half time and that it was HOT!

The 2nd half was a very different affair from the first, the sun went down and the ground cooled off and it made for a more exciting game! The Majapahit young guns were the first to draw blood, a through ball from midfield confused our centre-backs Renny and Vince who had just come on, and they were able to take advantage of some sloppy defending to go up 1-0!

We fought back hard though, with Jami and Khai now playing in midfield and combining well to set up some excellent wing plays. Julberg's header glanced over the cross bar twice, and Haidi had a few goal scoring opportunities. Against that run of play, our opponents scored a second, after Renny's failed clearance went straight to the feet of their main striker and he rounded off Yus for their second goal. 2-0 to Majapahit.

We managed to take one back as soon as they had scored as our persistence paid off eventually, with Rahimin breaking free on the left flank after winning possession of the ball, and he set Amir S up nicely with a neat one-two. Amir S' run into the penalty box was met by Julberg who took the shot first time and ripped that ball into the back of the net. DRM claws back to 2 - 1!

That wasn't the end of it, Jami who was holding the centre midfield spot well put Khai through on the left shortly after that first goal and Khai who had a few chances before then, wasn't going to miss this opportunity! His shot from just off the penalty box sailed into the top right corner and DRM was back in the game!

We dominated most of the play from there on and when Hammry came on, we looked to be gunning for the lead for the first time, but luck was not to be on our side as a simple low cross from their right winger, which looked to be harmless ended up with the most disastrous of consequences! Both Yus the keeper and Renny went for the same ball together, and in comical fashion, the ball slipped off Yus's grip, bounced off Renny head and into the back of the net. As if the gaffa wasn't already having a bad day! 3 - 2 to Majapahit!

Kudos to the DRM guys for pulling their socks up once more though, as we showed that we weren't going to go down so easily. Amir S was orchestrating the attacks, and with Jami and Khai by his side we looked like we still had another goal in us, and it eventually came when after a mad scramble in the box, Haidi managed to take advantage of the keeper not being able to hold on to his first shot, by toe-poking the ball in to the back of the net. 3 - 3 the final score!

DRM v SCO Match Summary & Report

Playa's : Yusra, Fadil, Fakhrul, Danan, G Khai, Khai, Amir S, Aizul, Dedy, Rahimin & the Office Move Boys

Assists : G Khai, Khai, Fakhrul, Aizul, Amir S

MOTM : G Khai

Alot happened in this game, and my memory seems to have failed me this time around. Worth mentioning is the midfield play especially in the second half, led by man-of-the-match G Khai pulling all the strings in the centre of the park. The small Arena pitch played into our favour, and we kept things tight and simple. Yusra didn't have much to do at the back in between the posts at all.

Finances : +$3 (Dedy & Rahimin)

A full strength Brunei DRM defeated Liga Perdana challengers, Johor FC 3 - 1 in a convincing match infront of 20,000 partisan fans at the Hassanal Bolkiah stadium last night in Bandar Seri Begawan. Liga Perdana high-flyers are now off to a roaring start in the first half of the season, with man on a mission Haidi managing his third hat-trick of the season. The fleet-footed bald striker seems to be the man to watch out in Malaysia's top league and has been rumoured to have caught the interest of scouts from Asian football powerhouse, Japanese club Jubilo Iwata.

3-aside Football ..


The guy who thought up this idea is a genius! I'd willingly back this idea from the ground up as it has everything the game we all know and love currently lacks; alliances, the potential for treachery, confusion and so much more! It's definitely a game the 21st century man can align himself with....
