KLSSL 7-a-side Tournament (Quarter Finalists)

The term rhymes with 'clucking bell'. What could have been and what should have been. Out in the Quarter Finals on pens.
The day started slowly. After our warm up which reminded all of an audition for dancers at Club Rectum, we eeked out a 0-0 draw with the mighty Socceroos. After Tom's miss in the dying seconds, it was rumoured that Mr. Kipling was trying to get hold of him. We played much better football after that and went on to record four straight wins on the bounce. 3-1 versus the colossal UK Rovers, 1-0 versus the immense Wolves, 1-0 versus the vast Fusion and then 1-0 against the stupendous MMFC with Paul Williams' corker being the goal of the tournament for the Asterix boys.
However, it was down to the QF and we faced the much improved Red Star, a team we had a great battle with in the 11-a-side game 3 weeks ago and are definitely a force to be reckoned with this coming year. Although, it would be fair to say we had the better of the game, you have to take your chances in this version of the game and this we did not do, so it was down to penalties. After locked at 5-5 on penalties with confident pens being slotted home by Georgie B, Mr Kipling, Anthony, MC Johnson and Scotty, up stepped the unconfident Williams. However, he hit a beauty into the top left hand corner only for the keeper to make an unbelievable save that Mr Fantastic would have been proud of, to literally fingertip it round the post.
Well, player of the tournament in my mind was Paul Williams who took his chances brilliantly. Until next week and the Mancis.
