Wow, what a bang, SAFFC just routed Home 4-1 at CCK Stadium on 20-Aug! Unbelievable!!
Usually Top-Of-The-Table clashes are pretty tight affairs, so to win by 3 clear goals in such fixtures is definitely no mean feat, though the fact that Home was playing its 3rd game in 6 days while SAFFC has rested for 15 days prior to the game may also be the contributing factor...
More info on the match at SLeague.Com's Preview+Details+Report, TodayOnline, ChannelNewsAsia & ZaoBao.
As mentioned in my earlier SLVC preview post, SAFFC has now achieved 6 objectives in 1 shot with this impressive victory:
1.SAFFC has overtaken Home at the top of 2007 S.League Table on G/D after 21 rounds.
2.SAFFC has avenged its previous SLVC defeat against Home on 18-May-2007.
3.SAFFC has regained leadership in the all-time SLVC mini-league standings.
4.SAFFC has improved its favourable SLVC record against Home to 7-4-4.
5.SAFFC has leapt from 12 to 4th-place in the 2007 SLVC mini-league.
6.SAFFC has won its 13th SLVC title, the most among all teams.
SAFFC's next game will be against Gombak on 27-Aug, stay tuned for a preview on this later.
However, as we marvel the way SAFFC wrested the SLVC title away, let us look at the solid "Home Run" enjoyed by the Protectors prior to this defeat:
1.Home has played 14 SLVC games in 2007 so far, 10 more than any other team;
2.Home has won 10, drew 3 & lost just 1 game to collect 33 points from this run;
3.Home has scored 32 & conceded only 16 goals for an iterim G/D of 16;
4.Home has held the SLVC title from 28-April to 20-Aug for a period of 114 days, the 4th-longest in-season reign (excluded those by season-end winners that spanned through several monthes of off-season, which certainly exagerated the figures); &
5.Home's title reign over 14 games is also the 3rd-longest in SLVC history;
6.Home looked set to finish as 2007 SLVC mini-league winner, unless SAFFC can avoid defeat & amass at least 30 points (i.e. 10 wins or 9 wins+3 draws) from its remaining 12 league games, which is surely quite a tall order.
Simply impressive, isn't it?
