JFC 1 - 2 MAJRA FC

JFC fail to pull away from their nearest rival Majra last nyte after been defeated 1-2. It was a high tempo game from start to finish where both team sharing third place with only goal different separating them.

Jerudong FC got off to a good start taking the lead when Jasni Nasri head perfect cross living Majra goalkeeper helpless in the 23rd minute to make it 1-0. It all from a good work by Rahim at the left side . The first half saw JFC dominant and determined by played beautiful football with accurate long passes and fancy skills. Jasni could have scored another goal but Majra's goalkeeper managed to block his piercing header in the 42nd minute. Jerudong ended the first half with 10 men when Samra was red carded through two bookable offence just after JFC managed to take a lead.

In second half, knowing that they've extra man, Majra put additional striker and it's proven worthful when Adi said managed to get them level on 68th minute after mis clearance by Hazmi. Even with with 10 men, Jerudong play offences tactic where a lot of clear cut chance was made but unfortunate due to poor finishing. Awangku Shahbudin sent the Majra crowd roaring in the 81st minute when he headed the ball home after a lucky ping pong ball in Jerudong penalty area. It doesn't stop JFC to get level again. JFC was un lucky when the referee rule out Radzi freekick by claiming that it shouldn't been taken earlier. It was the rule of the game that offensive player have advantage to take it early.

Overall JFC was unlucky with some crucial referee decision but that's the beauty and the beast of the game which every player need to adopt. Kudos to both team for playing a good game with discipline and highsporting spirit. Looking foward for the next game agaisnt Kasuka FC on 19th May 2008.
