A game that could never be won

RIPAS FC scored late in the second half to completed an amazing comeback to beat Kroniz FC at Kebajikan Field in a flooded field during a heavy thunderstorm.
An incident-packed match looked certain to end in a 2-2 draw after Hamdan and Aming  netted at both ends.
Several other clear-cut chances went begging for kroniz in the first half before Hamdan scored in the 25th minute. Kroniz will rue the chances available as RIPAS staged a late comeback to win 3-2. 
They suffered a late blow late in the 2nd half when Dodoi failed to score a penelty to tied  the game 3-3.
In the game, Hamdan put Kroniz ahead when Gnal spilt RIPAS defence with a sweet pass to Bob and flick  it Hamdan to leave him with an open goal to make it 1-0.
It was frantic stuff as Kroniz controlled the game but suffered a blow when RIPAS equalised just before the 1st half ended to tied it 1-1 at halftime.
In the second half RIPAS snatched the lead when the referee refused an offside trap by Kroniz players to lead 2-1.
Incredibly, again Bob sent Aming  clean through and without  hesitation scored with a tight angle to tie the game 2-2.
But Kroniz were unlucky as again the referee failed to spot an offside by RIPAS player and his vicious shot somehow found the net to lead 3-2.
Late in the game kroniz player went down in the box but Dodoi missed the penalty.
Final score RIPAS 3 Kroniz FC 2
