Asterix Reds 1 KL All Stars 3 (Friendly)

An invitational Asterix, comprising 5 members of the Singapore Cricket Club team played a team of boys playing in the state league. The game was played at a fast tempo with a plethora of hard challenges and a theasaurus was required for the fans on the sideline to deal with the range of expletitives being used by the main protaganists on the field. Mind you, if I keep on using language like this myself, some linguistic tools may be needed just to decipher what the fuck I am going on about. So back to layman's language. Bunmi netted half way through the first half slotting home a cross by Owen and finding the back of the onion bag to make it 1 zip to the Asterix boys. However, a pinball ball over the top led to a bit of a mix up at the back and the Select team equalised straight away and that is how it stayed until half time. Even though the game was quite even, the decisive moment came half way through the second half when Anthony got sent off for a second yellow card offence. And yes, he gets POW again. The Asterix boys were always going to be up against it from then on, and indeed, two quick breaks gave the Select team the two goals that were always coming. Hats off to the Singapore boys who all had great games despite a few sherberts the night before and indeed my MOM goes to Dominic who had a sterling game in the centre of the park.
