Breaking the losing streaks

Nothing beats winning hands down to break that losing streak. Winning 5 goals to 1 is no easy feat and winning by such a big margin at an away game is definitely a confident booster. It has all the ingredient of a amazing game, four goals in the first half, even better than the Man United - West Ham game last weekend. And that is exactly what the Protectors did today at Queenstown Stadium. Our boys rose from two consecutive defeats to demolish Dalian Shide 5-1. The Americans must be reeling with frustration for not signing Indra who single handedly slotted in four goals for the visitors. Ludovick scored the final goal of the day on the 52nd minutes. What more can a fan ask for?

Now it is time to ride the wave and continue knocking out one competitor at a time till we regain our rightful place at the top of the league.

it was just not our day...

home united played well in the first half and came back with 1 goal just before half time. when they came back for the second half, we equalised with a wonderful goal by Naruphol Ar-Romsawa, our promising young player. but everything went down when tampines scored their 3rd goal, which looked offside to me but apparently not to the linesman and referee. after the goal was given, the complexion of the game totally changed. well, it could have been different when shahril ishak was brought down in the penalty box but was denied when the penalty was not given as the referee deemed it as a dive. he even got a yellow card! earlier on in the match, ludovick was brought down too but still no penalty. the final score was 2-4 to tampines.

well, 2 losses already, but it's only 12 games played so far. we must cheer home united on. as i said, the fans must always be behind home united.

HOME UNITED!!

reply to taggers

well, i'm blogging to reply the taggers on the blog.

BOI: most of the "professional" bloggers for the home united blog are busy. as for me, i'm not really in any position to talk about the details of the AFC cup cause i might say something that is not reliable and accurate. that will make it worse, wouldn't it? furthermore, i'm more of a fan commenting on the matches and giving as much details as possible. dan (another tagger) is right to say thast you can find details from the sleague website http://www.sleague.com , or may i recommend the official home united website, here's the link http://www.hufc.com.sg/ You can find frequent updates of home united and the details of their recent games played. thanks.

Outsider: firstly, we do not welcome people who tag negative messages of home united. we would rather have constructive comments. please do not say things that has no evidence and are purely just personal comments that attacks the club. i would appreciate it if you would stop tagging these messages that will cause conflicts. as a fan of home united, i really can't take this lying down, i'm sorry if we gave you the idea that we believe we're undefeatable, i guess you can only say that we have the upmost confidence in home united. what is wrong with being able to fully support and be proud of your team? since when were we arrogant? if we work hard, we definitely can be proud of our achievements. look at cristiano ronaldo of manchester united, he can be proud because he works hard, plays well and scores fantastic goals! why can't the fans and players celebrate home united's achievements? yes, we have lost one match in the sleague, but why should we keep our heads low? it's not the end of the season, home united is not giving up that easily. maybe this will even spur us on. well, that's all i want to say.

justme: i agree that fans are supposed to support their team win, lose or draw. but please don't forget, fans are humans too. sometimes, it's hard to not complain. perhaps the boo-ing was going a bit too far but sometimes, it just can't be help with frustration and all. humans don't think straight at times like these. yes? i'm saying all these based on your tag, whether it's 100% true, i don't know but either way, i believe, no matter what, home united fans will always be behind the players. (:

i just have a bit more to say, i didn't blog about the game against balestier khalsa because i didn't attend/watch the match against balestier khalsa so i'm in no position to blog about anything. so dear readers, if you want details, please click the above links! sleague website and home united official website. :D AND, good news for home united. THE PROTECTORS ARE MOVING ON TO THE QUARTER FINALS OF THE AFC CUP.

ALL THE BEST HUFC! :D

ps: our next sleague match is against tampines rovers, please come down to bishan stadium today (saturday) to give your full support. (:

STILL...

the only undefeated team in the sleague. SAF was lucky to go away with a point in a match that was dominated by home united especially in the second half. home could have definitely won the match if not for the cross bar and some (well, actually most home united fans) say the referee! nevertheless, it was SWEET, SO SO SO SWEEEEEEET, to come back from 2 goals down in the span of FIVE MINUTES. POWER MAN!

If our players can sustain this fighting spirit and never say die attitude till the end of season, there's no doubt that home united will be the champion in the 2008 sleague season. THANKS FOR ALL THE SUPPORT FROM ALL THE FANS OUT THERE. and remember, our next match is a home game against Balestier Khalsa on the 26th of April, this coming saturday. hope to see you there!

WELL DONE PROTECTORS. THE FANS ARE ALWAYS BEHIND YOU! (:

top of the table(s)!

and i'm not only talking about sleague, i'm also talking about AFC cup! well, we are currently top of our group with 4 wins in 4 matches. awesome work from the team! (:

here's an update of the scores in sleague so far.
home united 2 super reds 1
young lions 1 home united 2
woodlands wellington 0 home united 3
home united 4 sengkang punggol 0

that means, we are currently the only team that hasn't been defeated in sleague. our next sleague match is against SAF who's currently hot on our heels with only 1point behind us. and it makes it slightly tougher when we're playing an away game. but who knows what's going to happen? hopefully, everything will go our way! so remember to come support home united yeah?

now for the AFC cup, we won our home game against victory. the score's 2-1 with goals coming from indra and peres. and yesterday, we won the away game at maldives, final score, 3-1, the goals coming from shahril ishak, indra and peres. we have 2 games left, one at home against South China, the other away against Kedah. well, all the best to our team!

that's all for now, hopefully we will have more good news on the way... (:

updates

oops, sorry for the lack of updates! but at least the blog is kept alive by the tagboard. so, here's an update of the scores of the matches home united has played so far.

tampines rovers 1 home united 2
home united 3 gombak united 3
albirex niigata 1 home united 5
home united 6 geylang united 1

the game against tampines was really a nail-biting experience. we snatched a late victory at the last minute with a goal coming from peres, securing 3 points even though we were away. and then there was the match against gombak. home united seem doomed to lose when we were down 2-0 at the first half. we even made a comeback when we equalised in the second half but gombak scored at the 91st minute. our first loss? no no no. we actually settled for a draw with a goal from Kengne Ludovick at the 92nd minute. nothing is impossible huh?
then came the games with BIG WINS! 5 goals, 6 goals! unbelievable. thrilling match for all to see. well, home united's next game is against super reds who's currently top of the table. so please, come down and support HUFC at bishan stadium on the 30th of march!

now, talking about the AFC cup. home united has played 2 games so far. one away, against South China and one at home, against Kedah. and yes, we have won both! 3-2 for the south china game and 5-1 for our home game! with 6points, we are currently top of our group! awesome? definitely. haha. our next game for the AFC cup is a home game against Victory(Maldives) on the 2nd of April. remember to come down to jalan besar to support home! hopefully this year, home united would be able to go far in this competition! alright, shall end off with a picture of the south china match. home united's in white! our newest jersey, very nice huh?

First Game - First Win

The final score 2-1.

All actions were in the first half within a span of about 20minutes. Kengne scored the first goal just 20mins into the game. But a foul in the box gave Dalian a chance to make a miraculous come back - and true enough 18-year-old Wang Liang calmly slotted in the penalty to make the score 1-1 just past the half hour mark. But just as Dalian saw light in the horizon, it didn't take long for comeback kid (bloke to be exact) Peres to erase any hope they have by making it 2-1 before the half-time whistle. This definitely gave Home United a psychological advantage going into the second half, and Dalian's frustration to make a S-League impression showed when midfielder Quan Heng got sent off leaving his team with 10 men with 2 minutes to full time.

First win for the season! A good start!
