¡@¡@¡@¡@This was the saddest team of the tournament. When they faced us, they were without their experienced defender and was defeated. Later in the next match they also left the tournament because of insufficient number of players when one of their players was carried off the field.
¡@¡@¡@¡@On the other hand, we have our key midfielder Grimace and veteran striker Rush back, Rush played as another midfield on the right. Chun was moved back as right-back.
¡@¡@¡@¡@It was quite a easy victory. A great cross from the left flank by Grimace, which was well met by the unmarked incoming Butterfly. He waited for one bounce of the ball and volleyed it fiercely past the hapless goalkeeper.
¡@¡@¡@¡@Rush, our experienced striker, had showed his instinct for goal though dropped back as midfield. First, he found a little space and time outside the box while the ball was arriving, he tried a powerful downswirling long-ranged volley, which somehow the wrong-positioned, always immobile goalkeeper could move quickly and hold it. After the game, Rush even said "He must have taken the MTR, how can he move so fast?"
¡@¡@¡@¡@Eventually, Rush had got what he deserved. Inside the box, he used his delicate skills to deceive his defender and beat the keeper. It was totally a 100% copy of Au Wai-lun's goal against Indonesia.
¡@¡@¡@¡@It ended 2-0 the final score.
Lineup: Luke; Devil(Ken), Jimmy, Yu Chun; Grimace, Water Rush; Butterfly.
