Tenterden
Spectators: 35 (Terracing: 27, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Famih Teo made the kick off which started today's match. 3 minutes into the game, Gage Lum was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Tenterden City's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Hammersmith the free kick. After a rather tough play, Tenterden City's Gage Lum got a free kick in the 3rd minute. After some fancy dribbling in the 6th minute, Alam Chian managed to get in a good position for a shot. Hammersmith's supporters rose to their feet, but Alam Chian was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Danish Namasivayam breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Danish Namasivayam showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Prime Soon, who was totally free with the ball in the 7th minute. If Iskandar Chew had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 11th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Danish Namasivayam showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Alam Chian in the 20th minute of the match. 22 minutes into the match, Hammersmith's goal looked a bit too open when Famih Teo came free, but Faris Politiek reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Iskandar Chew could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 24th minute of the match, but Faris Politiek made a huge save. 32 minutes into the game, Alam Chian cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 0-2. Danish Namasivayam was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. Alam Chian received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 35th minute. Danish Namasivayam tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Danish Namasivayam took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Alam Chian, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. When the match clock showed 45 minutes, the score became 0-3 when Alam Chian sped through Tenterden City's defense and sent away a curving shot that went into the net to the right of Danish Namasivayam. The crowd was extremely unhappy with the home team's performance in the first half. They were losing 0-3.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Alam Chian made a kick off. A hard shot 52 in the game by Alam Chian from a close distance when the talented Danish Namasivayam managed to make a qualified save. Tenterden City's players were relieved. Dale Soon could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 53rd minute of the match, but Danish Namasivayam made a huge save. In the 54th minute, Alam Chian left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The Hammersmith fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 0-4. If Alam Chian had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 59th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. With his leg Danish Namasivayam managed to avoid a goal in the 62ndth minute, when Hammersmith's Alam Chian fired away a shot with a lot of spin towards his right hand side. Alam Chian fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 67th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Danish Namasivayam having to interfere. Alam Chian might have been able to make a better finish in the 71st minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Danish Namasivayam. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Alam Chian ran back to his position shaking his head. Hammersmith's Mark Ching couldn't find anyone to pass the ball to, so he shot a long shot towards the goal in the 73rd minute. The shot went wide which resulted in a goal kick for Tenterden City. In the 74th minute, Alam Chian got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. Danish Namasivayam made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Mark Ching in the 77th minute of play. When Alam Chian came up free with the goalie in the 78th minute, the Hammersmith fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Alam Chian couldn't finish the play. Jonathan Chong received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 80th minute. Danish Namasivayam tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. The crowd rose to their feet as Alam Chian kicked a wonderful shot that went in to the left of a diving Danish Namasivayam. That made the score 0-5 in the 83 minute of play.
