Boo FC vs AM Gunners [friendly]

A dissapointing loss to the hands of AM Gunners ended the boos record breaking unbeaten run of eight games. The boos were under pressure for most of the first half as they were beaten 4-1 but dominated the second half as the roles were reversed and nearly did the great escape as the match ended 4-3. Pojan, Fizul and Marul were the scorers.

The team in full: Pojan, Marul, Gryn, Fwat, Syam, Mamad, Fadli, Mahmud, Mirul, Wajdy, Awie, Fizul, Najib, Kamal, Afiq, Zazi, Azeq.

The boos played with the usual 4-5-1 formation. Marul played as the targetman while Mirul and Mahmud played on the left and right wings respectively. Pojan and Safwat played in the centre with Fadli as the defensive support. Syam and Wajdi joined Gryn and Mamad in defence. Awie was in goal.

Boofc was given an early scare when a cross from the right evaded Awie and was met by a bad touch but not bad enough as to miss the goal. Fortunately, it was put out for a corner by Syam. Gunners soon open the deadlock after a neat passing play between Awit and TM. TM took a shot on goal. Awie saved it but failed to handle the ball as the rebound was fired into the net. It was soon 2 goals down for the boos. The ball was blocked by Syam and was deflected onto the path of TM who managed to squeeze the ball between Awie and his left hand post. Boo fc replied with a subtle goal through Pojan. Safwat took a shot that was blocked by the goalie but Pojan reacted quickly and kicked the ball through the keeper's legs and into the net. Gunners then regained their their two goals cushion. Awit did a great turn over Gryn and placed the ball out of Awie's reach. TM onced again doubled their advantage after Azeq lost possession. Najib just failed to clear the ball and TM used this to his advantage. After 45 exhausting minutes, the boos were 4-1 down. It could've been better for the boos though as a Mirul effort bounced of the post and when Mahmud failed to control the ball as it went harmlessly over the bar. Not to mention a well taken freekick from Fadli that was well saved by the keeper.

Serious changes were made for the second half. Zazi, Kamal and Fizul were brought in to replace Mirul, Fadli and Wajdy. Najib and Azeq who earlier replaced Syam and Mamad were also in the second half line-up.

The boos started the second half brightly after Fizul dribbled past two defenders inside the box and aimed his shot towards the keeper's far right. Another solo goal from inside the box, could this be the on-loan midfielder's trademark goal? The ball met the gunners goal post for the second time after Pojan shot kissed the top of the crossbar. By now the boos were in control and was rewarded with a third. Fwat was fouled on the left wing and the resulting freekick by Mahmud flew towards Marul who headed it into the net. The keeper had no chance. The scoreline was now 4-3. Confidence was on a high and boo fc gave their all to find the equaliser. Boo FC's defence was very solid, credits to Najib. The search for the equaliser was in vain as AM gunners managed to run the time out.
