Thrilling Encounter vs Starfam Fc
11 Mac: Alinordi scored hattrick in a thrilling encounter at the Kebajikan Field as Kroniz held on for a priceless victory.
Kroniz were second best for much of the first half as for the second game only 12 players were available for selection including a few injured players. In also for the second time kroniz only played with 10 player in the beginning of the first half.
However with determination and smart game plan Kroniz veteran players deservedly took the lead through Roslan only for Starfam Fc to draw level soon after. 10 minutes before half-time Alinordi managed to scored for kroniz to lead 2-1 before half time.
The match really got going in the second half as Starfam Fc drew level again before Arch netted the third for kroniz. Not long after that Starfam scored again to level 3-3.
And it was certainly the visitors who provided most of the attacking threat with their fit and young players, kroniz defenders and keeper was forced to repel a barrage of balls fired into his box.
Kroniz welcomed back Pyan after five weeks out injured was also handed a rare start, after he returned from holiday in Australia.
Kroniz continued to press and Alinordi scored another from another terrific delivery by Kroniz midfield, but Starfam fc shocked their opponents by drawing level again to 4-4.
A lovely ball from Roslan found Arch in acres of space down the right and he took the ball to the byline before pulling back and could not miss from three yards for kroniz to lead again 5-4.
Just when kroniz seemed to have taken a stranglehold on the match, Starfam Fc pulled one back, and it could not have been simpler as corner kick picked out the head of the towering Starfam's player to level 5-5.
However, with a "never say die" attitude Kroniz did manage a sixth in the 81st minute, Alinordi was central to the goal, as the veteran striker juggled the ball from right to left foot before guiding a shot just inside the far post.
There was no doubt which team was on top now, Starfam Fc pushed hard for an equaliser through five minutes of injury time but this time Kroniz stood firm to hold onto the three points.
The Game ended 6-5 to Kroniz. Scorers Alinordi (3) Arch (2) Roslan (1)
