The World's defense was asked questions by the Orange's attack and had no good answers. In a demoralising 9-5 defeat, which saw Orange players Shaun and BenI run riot, scoring an astounding 9 goals past a helpless Geoffery in goal.
When questioned on the reason for the loss, the manager said that the lack of a defensive holding midfielder was probably the reason as Orange used the speed of their forwards to time and again aquire 1 on 1 chances with The World's keeper.
But everyone could see that was only one of the reasons as unusually sloopy passing and shooting as well as lack of movement and imagination all round led to the defeat. Pushed back and stuck in the own half for periods to and end, The World were caused no end of problems by Orange's speed and strength.
Missing their regular goal scorer and midfield enforcer, Sid, The World were constantly bullied of the ball, hunted by the packs of Orange players. Trying to exploit the space that's left by Orange, poor passing led to interceptions which Orange expolited with glee.
In the end, the 9-5 scoreline was a fair reflection of the overall run of play. Orange had an excellent game while The World was out of sorts.
Games will resume after the CNY period where food and fun all round will cause futher havock to the players physical conditioning. Can The World rebound after this defeat or will Orange continue their dominance? Come back next week to find out!
P.S: Hurts my heart to type that. But since an Orange victory comes about once every blue moon, I don't think I'll be dying anytime soon. :P
