2007 Malaysia Alumni LeagueMatchday 5 (VIOBA vs. ANSARA Kuantan)
On 15 July 2007, we played our 5th league game this year against ANSARA Kuantan on our hometurf. We started the match like a house on fire right from the opening whistle. The frustration stemming from our disappointing result in the last game was quickly cast aside and the team played superb, enterprising football in the 1st half of the game. We ended the half with a 3-0 scoreline in our favor with goals from Mohamad Afizal ('98), Shahrul Nizam ('95) and the team captain, Muhammad Irfan Al-Akiti ('94) (who's celebrating his 30th birthday).
We didn't let up in the 2nd half and were rewarded with another goal early on in the half, with the birthday boy, Muhammad Irfan Al-Akiti adding to his tally. We created a few more chances but failed to capitalize and midway through the 2nd half, our performance started to drop as fatigue sets in. ANSARA Kuantan grabbed a couple of late goals to make the scoreline more respectable from their point of view. A stellar all-round performance with Mohamad Afizal pulling the strings in midfield and Mohd Noor Shakher ('00) making darting runs down the right flank and helped set up two of the goals. But ultimately, the man of the match goes to the captain, Muhammad Irfan Al-Akiti who scored a brace and led the team well in attack.
Our next match is a crucial one against the current league leader, STAROBA on 22 July 2007. The game will be played at Padang ILP, Bangi and we are gunning for a victory to ensure our title hopes for this year stays alive.
