March Holiday Trainings

Please remember to refer to the training schedule for the latest updates!

C Boys Round 2 Game 2

Sometimes you have to win ugly. All teams go through a time when they are not playing well and the system seems broken but somehow with resilience and willpower they win the game. That is exactly what Marsiling did, managing to grind out a win against Woodlands sec despite not playing up to mark. So now once again our fate lies in our own hands, together with another fateful meeting with the Singapore Sports School. We have beaten them before, so there is every chance we can do it again!

C Boys Competition Round 2 Game 1

So the first game of the second round started. Although we played well and had good chances, the opponents had good chances too, with our goalkeeper making several fine saves. Unfortunately we lost the match 1-0 and so our next match against Sports School is a must-win situation. We have been in this position before and have overcome the odds to progress. So lets go Marsiling!!

B Boys Competition Round 2 Game 3

So the final game was of no consequence as both teams were already out. And it was a 40 minute game as it was the second half of a postponed game. Both teams played with a competitive but fair spirit and the game ended 2-2.




C Boys Competition Round 1 Game 5

So... the last game of the round. Against Sembawang. Winner takes all. We told our boys to go all out for a win because to do anything else would be to invite additional pressure on ourselves. The match was slightly in favour of Sembawang in the first half but our defense held firm and neither side created any real clear-cut chances. We had more control in the second half and had a stronger attacking display but could not find the back of the net.

The last 5 minutes was a frantic and helter skelter affair as Sembawang attacked furiously in an attempt to find a winning goal. At one point almost all the players from both sides were in our penalty box but we hung on! At the final whistle the Sembawang players slumped to the ground and many shed tears of anguish... Our player stood around clueless at first but soon started to rejoice when they saw the teachers celebrating and it finally dawned on them that they had progressed via goal difference. It was truly an unforgettable match!
