Well, no one will deny if anyone says tat the match between those 2 teams was the most entertaining in the last week of RFL b4 the winter break. With the predicting is well against CFC.. with 3-1 for the Blue Guys to win, that showed how good Copa's form was. As soon as the match started, the M2fc's prediction was soon becoming true as Copa scored the first goal in couple of minutes after the start of the game. CFC's player kept their cool, and played on..only to be shocked by Copa's 2nd goal. With 2 goals down, CFC guys were still seen brimming with confidence of winning the game, as Arulkanesh was seeing motivating his fellow guy to just play as how they always play during their training time. Those 2 Copa's goals were due to some bad defensive error by the Yellow Guys. Somehow, 2 goals down never deterred CFC's from attacking and they pulled 1 goal back thru Arul Botak. Then the game just got more entertaining, with both team trying attack at every chances they had. Shafiq rattled the goal post with Sathiya the goal keeper was well beaten. Some misunderstanding btwn goalie and Arulkanesh almost led to an own-goal by Arulkanesh.. who somehow brilliantly..(hehehehe) used his finger tips to push the ball away from entering the goal. With the Ref cant see the Captain's act, his assistant, had a clear view of the incident and a penalty was awarded to Copa and a yellow card was flashed to Arulkanesh. Arul Botak stepped up to take up the goalie duty from Sathiya and he did very well to keep away Shafiq's rocketing penalty from going into the goal. CFC guys were all high with confidence after the penalty save and started to show their own pace and rhythm of futsal.
The second half started with CFC switched to Attack mode with only Arulkanesh was playing as defend, with Ganesan withdrawn and Updesh, Brahma and Sathiya was sent in. Clearly, they oni had 1 target in the mind... to win the game. Arulkanesh was keeping up the pressure by playing more offensively and was constantly testing Copa's keeper but to no avail. Some sloppy defence by Copa's player was fully benefited by Sathiya as he pulled another 1 goal to equal the score to 2-2. After that, it was Thanes ( The BABA) who stole the limelight by scoring a very nice goal by slotting pass Boo with very little space available to him. Slowly.. tis bearded striker gaining his match fitness after a long spell with knee injury. 3-2 the score was then, and CFC had more chances with Updesh missing a open-goal chance ( he claimed tat he dont like to score very easy goals.. :P) Then some not-so-neat passing from CFC prevented them from scoring more. Meanwhile, Shafiq lashed onto a fierce shot tat hit the post and sumhow was kept out by the goalie, Arul Botak.. much to his own surprise.. hahahah :D Then, Ganesan agained poped-up the 4th goal for CFC, which guaranteed their 3 points. Ganesan, who scored 3 goals in the past 3 games.. all of them were the winning goals..was in a hot-form. ( Due to the salad we think..:P)
Overall, CFC played reli well and showed some nice game and showed tat they have the characters to come back from 2 goals down and to win the game. The whole CFC was in euphoric mood after the win. Congratz guy, a well earned and nice performance by all of you.. Keep it up for the 2nd half to the league next February.
Chittapa FC 4-2 Copa Cobana.
Man-of the-Match ----> Arul Ananthasivam aka Botak ( he scored a goal, he saved a goal..wat else u can expect from a player.. haha lol.. :P)
