Losing battle

8th April: R11 Fc condemned Kroniz Fc to another defeat of the season at PTEK Field.

Central midfielder Aliuddin fired home from a distance in the 15th minutes after exchanging excellent passes in the early part of the game however after that kroniz struggled to find any real fluency.

R11 started the fightback with two quick goals in the 25th and 28th minutes after two school boys mistake by Kronizs defenders.

Kroniz battled all the way to the whistle in a desperate attempt to rescue the match but R11 were good value for their win. 

Kroniz were buoyed by the knowledge and optimism that for the first time in many games that 15 players were available for selection. 

However Kroniz usually central defenders were not available and the initial solution was to promote Nasrin and Hj Radzi to the role with central defender taking over at the back, although the move patently did not work.

However, Kroniz  dominance in the early part of the game was fleeting and the lead not only evaporated, but was overhauled in the space of three minutes in the first half.

The second half Kroniz were in positive mood and twice within a minute forced saves from R11 keeper, the first of them less than convincing.

The match was becoming increasingly open to leave both defences under pressure, Kroniz refused to throw in the towel, but simply did not have the craft or guile to get themselves back on terms. Kroniz Fc 1 - R11 Fc 2.  Scorer: Aliuddin
