match report (13 June 2010)

score: yc portsmouth 0 el lobos 12
scorers: bobby 5, yewtze 2, leonard 2, wee theng 1, jiaxuan 1, yc's friend og 1
attendance: 32.000

report: after a long lay-off, the lobos found themselves in the midst of their first almost-competitive match in a long time (there were other semi-competitive matches in the meantime, but the reporter was mia). anyhow, congjing arranged this match with his army friends yee chwan and gang, a team that the lobos have faced more than once. however, with the sun burning hot and rusty ankles kicking a rather hard yellow ball, it was going to be tough.

the team started (and ended) with leo in the keeper's position, wee theng at the centre with congjing to his left, jx occupying his right berth, yewtze in his usual free-roaming central position and bobby as the main target-man up front. due to a lack of personnel, the lobos had to play with a man short for the entire match, and the effects showed with everyone saying 'wah damn shagged' repeatedly during the ball game.

the scoreline flattered the lobos, with clinical finishing and tactical acumen more of a reason than pure overwhelming brilliance for the scoreline. cj and jx ran their socks off on the wings, wee theng was his usual rocky self with a rare (nicely finished) goal, yewtze ruled the midfield and bob was simply imbal, shooting at will and causing no end of problems. leo made a series of solid saves to ensure the cleansheet, and even managed to score two when wee theng took a breather in goal.

the first goal came when the opposition defender tried to clear the ball, only to blast it into his own net with a fabulous volley. soon after wee theng, in his many forages up front, clipped the ball neatly past the keeper in what was his first goal for over a few years. bob soon added a couple of goals; a well-placed shot from a yt pass and a header from a jx cross. jx then volleyed a screamer outside the box, before laying on for bob's next goal, a sweeping shot from six yards out. leo then added his brace; a well placed shot from the edge of the area, the second from a fast break, in which three lobos sprinted alongside bob as he advanced, before squaring the ball off to leo, who could not miss for fear that he would be killed by jx and wt. pesky yewtze, who had added his usual goal somewhere in the midst of the scoring, then finished off nicely from a bobby lay-off. ever-reliable congjing, while not scoring, was the start-point of many of these moves, and solid play and understanding with wee theng was vital to the win.

manofthematch: bobby
lobos may still be missing ronnie tay, but bob may remove those memories soon enough. powerful finishing coupled with strength and finesse, bob made sure that the defense was kept on its toes the entire match, not that it was enough. cue for you to return, tay.

moanofthematch: super hot weather
we almost died. as usual.

quoteofthematch: 'where you all buy him from?!' opposition teams make a move for bob. manager hoberto mancini says no, of course.

conclusion: delighted with the way our team can still play. tactically disciplined, good understanding and link-up play, together with a trust built over many matches, it was a joy to play and watch. looks like project lobos, started five years ago, wasn't a wasted one.

chunavaro: finally the curse falls

with each lobo having his bout of injury some time or another, leo chunavaro, one of the last survivors of the healthy contingent, fell heavily after a clash with youngster yurio balotayi, who was playing as a makeshift keeper. the stout defender fell with a shriek, crashing heavily on the ground, and lay about moaning in pain. here are the explicit pictures. (leo in happier times on the left)

while current team acting skipper cesc fatzegas might contend that his elephant leg was more grotesque, it does not contain the fact that the lobos are a walking injured team now.

meanwhile, long lost hero ronaldinho tay has confessed that he skipped surgery due to 'personal reasons'. he has pledged to go see a doctor (finally). hopefully both important players will return for us soon.

i'm sorry for the super late post, but there were 4 other dudes who could have done it but didn't.

in the recent NTU Street Challenge, el lobos did themselves proud by qualifying past the two group stages, only to leave because of a stupid misunderstanding.

group d match 1
NIE teachers 1 el lobos 1

yewtze scored this one after jiaxuan hit the post twice. was an extremely physical match that the lobos should have won. but just a warm up. the highlight was bobby zooming off in his car to get congjing, who was late. steven from e lit deputised as our very reluctant goalie.

group d match 2

walkover some loser team

group d match 3
slackers 1 el lobos 1

zp returns for this, scoring on his first attempt much to the rapturous reception of the soccer frenzy audience. slackers play some slick football, but are rapidly kiaped by some tenacious lob defense. things get ugly, lucky to survive.

thus we progressed to stage 2.

indian team 0 el lobos 5

surprisingly easy meat despite the presence of an ivp indian. zp scores twice, steven in his happy outfield role one, yt one and jx one. bob and cj prove to be a formidable wall.

hongxing 4 el lobos 1

looks one-sided. but to be honest lobos were a tad shagged. and facing a team filled with ivps, it was unlikely that they were going to let us have an easy match. zp scored for lobos, bob and cj barrier down due to steven playing outfield.


then we left because we thought we got knocked out. well done lobos. next year will be better.

match report
score: mingwei's kakis 1 el lobos 4
scorers: edmund, leonard, bobby, yewtze
attendance: 33.000

report: this match was completed some weeks ago, but the reporter kind of lost his script, hence the delay. but here goes: mingwei, friend and childhood training partner of lobos' yewtze and a missing wee leong, brought his team to challenge a lively looking lobos, who is having a mini revival of sorts. having not located a ground to the satisfaction of both parties, ntu stadium provided the neutral battlefield.

leonard, after some excellent performances outfield, showed that versality and a failure to appease your gaffer could be detrimental by starting in goal. long lost rock wee theng lined up against recently traitorous congjing in a tried-and-tested defence. yewtze continued his good attendance with a role in the marauding circle, with edmund and jx completing the usual trio in attack.

with cj contributing with his energetic runs from the back, the lobos caused the kakis no end of trouble. wee theng repelled any attack that the opposition could muster, while leo managed to look more sian than he usually did. meanwhile, jx hit the post early on, after some good work by cj. after much confusion over an over enthusiastic center midfielder, which yewtze pointed out as the main physical damage dealer, edmund scored a poacher's goal by slotting home.

having been unleashed from his mundane task as a bored keeper, leo continued his rich vein of goalscoring form by netting a long range shot. shortly after, substitute and sleepy-looking bobby scored with a bullet header after a fantastic, pinpoint, almost unreal cross from a nonchalent looking jx. yewtze then scored a goal that was so sneaky that it couldn't be remembered. salas then missed a whole host of chances. and then with the score at 4-0, jx continued his own record of conceding by passing to an opponent, who proceeded to run almost inhumanly and score. anyway it was time to end.

manofthematch: congjing
he played the whole match. how's that for commando.

moanofthematch: lazy opponents
edmund: wah lao they don't pick ball one. f*** la.

quoteofthematch: 'this is a fantastic turnout!' yewtze obviously hasn't seen many happy lobo days.

conclusion: technique triumphs over stamina. any day.

match report
score: han jie and friends 0 el lobos 3
scorers: yewtze, jiaxuan, leonard
attendance: 47.000

report: one of the lowest scoring games, as well as shortest, the lobos showed that they were no pushovers by comprehensively beating han jie's team by three on saturday. it had been quite some time since the last official match, and the lobos were eager to shed rust and the all-too-familiar feeling of playing mingyao's andersonians week in week out.

with wee leong at the back and the usual trio of yewtze, jiaxuan and leonard playing together for the umpteen time, congjing made a rare appearance. driving his suave new car with brown hair to boot, this silent amiable assassin smiled his way into the match. providing a stable foil at the back to launch attacks, only sum could possibly have made a more solid defensive contribution. but the difference showed; where defensively the lobos were compromised (by not much), the attacked flowed.

as mentioned earlier, the match was rather short. yew tze banged in the first minutes after the kick-off, taking on almost the entire defense with a series of well-known footwork. the diminutive playmaker, wrestling control of the park with an ever widening hole in his trusty boots, finished well after a nice pass from cj. soon after, jx impossibly lobbed the bewildered keeper with a slightly, almost but not quite, awesome finish after some good work by yewtze on the left. the lobos worked seamlessly together, with leo and cj disgustingly calm and collected behind, wee leong looking bored and unperturbed, yew tze his usual pesky self and jx running circles around the opposition and himself. it came as no surprise then when leo struck a well placed shot into the corner after a snap pass from jx, wrapping up the match and bringing on the poser malays.

which is another story for another day.

manofthematch: yewtze
he really played well la. got nothing to snipe him about, except his lousy choices in dresses.

moanofthematch: poser malays
wear until so nice then disrupt match. what the hell. lousy somemore. play rough somemore.

quoteofthematch: 'wah lan eh. high court press.' han jie thinks he is playing basketball.

conclusion: congjing should come more often. jiaxuan should shoot more often. leo should shout more often. yew tze should do fancy stuff more often. wee leong. wee leong should smile more often.

overall a good result.

lobos at the crossroads; bunny girl puleo blocks the way

report - after dallying with mingyao's andersonians and yi ming's torreses, the team has hit the important question: what are we aiming for now? according to spectators and loyal supporters that have been staunched with the lobos so far, the players that make the team are a measly 4. something/13 (14?). cesc fatzegas, david holva, iker weesilas and a rejuvenated but seriously disturbed chu puleo make the numbers, with sumo ramos and joan fapdeviliang joining in at times, and the occasional appearance of sandres inilasta

chu puleo, despite his good garang performances for the espanic lobos recently, has a new nickname. 'el bunny girl', as he likes to call himself now, was caught recently parading his new bunny ears, red lips and sweet smile, while waving his cute lil' butt in red shorts. gaffer luis horagones has released a statement that he 'wasn't homophobic' and that players should be allowed their private lives.

but reporters have noticed that horagones has recently shunned the presence of puleo during private functions and parties. puleo himself has been caught dallying with a bespectacled scientist only known as reubs. some players were interviewed for their comments:

holva: 'honestly, we don't care about puleo's sexual orientation. but seriously, bunny girl?'

fatzegas: 'underaged girls, and now this? i'm not sure which is worse man. i know im not a very good example, but still...'

sumo: 'wtf.'

weesilas: 'so that's what he borrowed my butter for.'

puleo has been in rich form of late. scoring spectacular goals, including one good header from a even more fantastic cross from holva, one wonders if he has already sacrifice his manhood. fatzegas, on the other hand, has been caught up in anniversaries. his missus, whose age the press has politely declined to name because of censorship policies, have reminded tze nicely that the best age to have children is at 18. let's hope he remembers.

more coming up soon - worldsoccer.com
