As usual,
before the start of the next season, someone has to write something
to build up excitement, set the fans' hungry for the grand season
coming up, wake up some players etc etc...Actually this round
up is long overdue. Should have been done at the end of our season
months ago. Hee hee...
Okay while
some of you are busy having or studying for your exams calculating
all the simple forces and formulas and equations, I am having
the most difficult task of compiling those dumb statistics to
satisfy the hunger of our die hard fans (e.g. Our fan club president
Zhang Han who is mad with basketball stats in his collection
of basketball cards.)
Even though
this season is shorter than the last, the stats are getting kind
of more impressive. Hey guys! We need to play more matches to
gain some credibility here! Can you imagine some people looking
at our pages and laughing at the number of matches we played!!!
Okay here goes:
First of all,

All six goals
scored by our strikers were from Cheng
Cai who scored an impressive record 5 goals in a single
match. Mingheng scored 2 (when
we pushed him up to partner Cheng Cai
in Ding's absence). Our midfielders
continue the strong tradition of scoring vital goals from their
position. For once the defence didn't let in any stupid own goal.

Some players
could do better by coming for more matches. As you can see, Dasch
is a poor club and can't afford more players. Coupled with our
stringent rules for accepting players,
we only have a bunch of limited resources.

The goals
were well distributed throughout the positions with the forwards
(1 single guy) doing his job perfectly well. Cheng
Cai's red glaring boots scored 5 single goals in a
match. Surprise omission this season from the scorer's list:
Daniel Ding. Haha..
If i can come
up with a number of miss by a single player, the award should
belong to Ming Heng. He single-handedly
hit the bar, cross bar, the goalkeeper countless of times. What
a waste after those mesmerizing runs...
This ends
the glorious summary of short season 2 for Dasch Rovers. Let's
hope we continue on this fine improvement in season 3. Hmm...now
perhaps i will start working on a Dasch Trading cards..
