Match day 10 & 11 (2010)

This group of players has better potential and cared more than 2009 batch.
It wasn't easy bouncing back from a defeat.
10 wins out of 11 games is not a bad record but maybe not good enough for HKSS these days.
This group of players have 3 more months to prove how good they really are.
Good luck for the Champions League 2010!
For some, the first bite of medal tastes sweet.

Iqram with the Cup. He scored 2 solo goals and provided an assist to Nazlee.

Khidir had a good game and a good tournament.
He was always around to encourage the players when they were down.
He played with alot of composure and did what a captain should do.
He is not happy with the colour of the medal and would defintely try harder to turn things around for the Champions League.
He is a worthy captain of HKSS.
See...I'm happy.

Wen Zong kept a clean sheet. Well done.

Can I have 2 ?
That's my medal.

Thank you very much.
We're happy with the win today.

We're good.

Wish me luck & bless me.

Final prayers to calm the nerves.

Good luck guys.
