MATCH NO 5 AND NO 6



Skuad U-23 menang tipis


Oleh Hasrulraizan

BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN, 28 Ogos – Pasukan Bola Sepak Kebangsaan Bawah 23 Tahun (U-23) Negara Brunei Darussalam membuktikan kemampuan mereka bersaing dengan MS ABDB, apabila berjaya menang tipis 1-0 ke atas Naib Juara Liga Super DST Brunei 2012/2013 itu dalam Kejohanan Bola Sepak Jemputan 6 Penjuru 2013 malam ini.

Walaupun jaringan yang terhasil pada minit ke-58 merupakan ‘hadiah’ daripada penjaga gawang MS ABDB, Soldadu Md Tarmizi Haji Mat Johari kepada Muhd Shafie Haji Muhd Efendy, namun kemampuan U-23 Negara bertahan tanpa bolos ketika hanya bermain 10 orang sedari minit ke-69 lagi seolah-olah memperlihatkan masa depan cemerlang buat mereka.

Soldadu Md Tarmizi ‘termuntah’ bola ke kaki Muhd Shafie di dalam Petak D ketika cuba menangkap bola tetapi terkena kakinya pula, sebelum Muhd Shafie menguis bola ke depan melepasinya dan kemudian mudah menendang masuk bola menggunakan kaki kiri ke gawang terbuka, walaupun pertahanan MS ABDB, Soldadu Affendy Haji Akup cuba menyelamatkan bola dengan merebahkan badan dan meluruskan kakinya.

Namun selang 11 minit kemudian Muhd Shafie bertukar dari wira kepada ‘penjahat’ apabila menyebabkan rakan-rakan sepasukannya terpaksa bermain 10 orang selepas dirinya diarah keluar padang dalam perlawanan yang berlangsung di Kompleks Sukan Berakas berkenaan.

Muhd Shafie dilayangkan kad merah akibat menerima kad kuning keduanya pada minit ke-69 kerana sengaja menendang kaki pertahanan MS ABDB, Korporal Haizul Rani Metussin sedang bola sudah jauh, setelah dilayangkan kad kuning pertama pada minit ke-63.

Mujur MS ABDB gagal memanfaatkan kelebihan seorang pemain itu dalam tempoh masa 21 minit yang tersisa itu bahkan sebaliknya U-23 Negara pula berpeluang menambah jaringan pada minit ke-79 apabila Mohd Zulkhairy Razali mendapati dirinya hanya berdepan dengan Soldadu Md Tarmizi di gawang MS ABDB, namun Soldadu Md Tarmizi menidakkannya.

Kejayaan U-23 Negara itu menjadikan perlawanan terakhir Kumpulan A berkenaan iaitu antara Indera SC dengan U-23 Negara pada lusa, Jumaat, 30 Ogos nanti di Padang dan Balapan, Kompleks Sukan Negara Hassanal Bolkiah (KSNHB) lebih menarik dan sebagai penentu kerana kedua-dua pasukan kini sama-sama memiliki 3 mata, 1 gol dan tanpa bolos.

Dalam perlawanan kedua Kumpulan ‘B’ di Padang dan Balapan, KSNHB, juga berlangsung malam ini, MS PDRB berjaya mengutip 3 mata penuh apabila menang 2-1 ke atas Pasukan Bola Sepak Kebangsaan Bawah 19 Tahun Negara Brunei Darussalam (U-19).

Dalam perlawanan terakhir Kumpulan B pada malam 30 Ogos nanti di Kompleks Sukan Berakas, U-19 Negara perlu menang besar ke atas LLRC FT yang telah menjinakkan MS PDRB 4-0 dua malam yang lalu, jika mahu mengintai peluang bermain di perlawanan akhir pada 1 September di Stadium Negara Hassanal Bolkiah.

Perlawanan merupakan kejohanan anjuran Jabatan Belia dan Sukan, Kementerian Kebudayaan, Belia dan Sukan dengan kerjasama NFABD, yang tujuan utamanya membantu Pasukan Bola Sepak Kebangsaan Brunei Darussalam Bawah 23 Tahun (U-23) membuat persiapan bagi Sukan Asia Tenggara (SEA) 2013 nanti.

STRIKER Muhd Shafie Hj Muhd Efendy helped the 10-man national Under-23 team edge the Royal Brunei Armed Forces Sports Council (MS ABDB) 1-0 in their first match of the Six Corners Football Championship last night after scoring before later getting sent off.

The national Under-23 team were already without coach Kwon Oh-son, who is currently in the United Kingdom to continue his programme in obtaining a "P" coaching license, when they faced the army men at the Berakas Sports Complex while some other key players were also out injured.

And with Muhd Shafie sent to an early shower by referee Mohammad Hasrin Hj Samat in the 70th minute after being booked twice, the Under-23 team spent the remaining minutes defending their 1-0 lead.

The Under-23 side are currently preparing for the upcoming 27th edition of the Southeast Asian (SEA) Games in Myanmar in December and lost 1-0 to the Indonesian national Under-23 team in a friendly at Yogyakarta two weeks ago, with this week's all-local, six-team Six Corners Football Championship serving as more preparation ahead of Myanmar.

"It was a very good game, both teams played very well but we played better," noted caretaker coach Zainuddin Hj Kassim in an interview with The Brunei Times after the match.

"We had a lot of chances in the first-half but were very wasteful in front of the goal. In the second-half, we played much better and scored early.

"There were still so many areas the players need to improve on, and one of them is their touches. They still need to polish that up," added the coach.

Despite missing several key players such as centre-backs Afi Aminuddin and Azwan Hamzah, who were still nursing injuries after the friendly game against Indonesia, the national Under-23 side fared very well against the organised MS ABDB team.

Muhd Shafie came close to scoring on a few occasions but was denied every turn by MS ABDB goalkeeper Mohd Tarmizi Hj Mat Johari.

Midfielder Asri Hj Aspar and former MS ABDB player Mazazizi Mazlan also came close to scoring late in the first-half, but both their attempts were brilliantly saved by Mohd Tarmizi.

MS ABDB started the second half strongly with striker Muhd Fadhli Hj Mohd Salleh testing goalkeeper Ak Omar Nur Aqamaddin with a long-range shot, but the latter tipped the ball over the bar.

Muhd Shafie finally broke the deadlock in the 58th minute when he scored from close range following a scramble inside the penalty box.

MS ABDB replied immediately a minute later with a swift counter attack when midfielder Mohd Budiman Hj Jumat set Muhd Fadhli through inside the penalty box, but the striker would fire his shot just wide.

Last night's other match saw Royal Brunei Police Forces Sports Council (MS PDB) defeat the national Under-19 team 2-1 at the Balapan Track and Field of the Hassanal Bolkiah National Sports Complex in Berakas.

The tournament continues tomorrow with the Under-23 team taking on Indera Sports Club (SC) at the Balapan Track and Field, while the Under-19 team go up against the Liang Lumut Recreational Club Football Team (LLRC FT).

This tournament is the first of its kind this year and its main purpose is to provide the national Under-23 and Under-19 teams with match experience ahead of key regional meets.

The Under-19 team will be competing at the Asean Football Federation Under-19 Youth Championships in Indonesia next month and October's Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Under-19 tournament in Thailand.

INDERA Sports Club (SC) defeated Royal Brunei Armed Forces Sports Council (MS ABDB) 1-0 in the opener of the Six Corners Football Championship last night, with the DST Super League champions starting strongly in the first-half but failing to find a way past the army's solid defence.

Indera centre-back Reduan Hj Petara's goal in 78th minute separated both teams at the Balapan Track and Field of the Hassanal Bolkiah National Sports Complex in Berakas, where MS ABDB relied on their wingers on both flanks to supply the ball into the penalty area a threat that the Indera defenders, led by centre-back Reduan, did well to put out.

"It was great game," said Indera's coach Hj Omar Hj Jamil in an interview with The Brunei Times after the match.

"We found it very hard to penetrate MS ABDB's defence tonight but we waited patiently and scored late in the game.

"It was a pretty good result considering we just started training and we have only played two friendly matches over the past weeks," he added.

Indera came close to scoring on several occasion in the first 15 minutes of the second-half, with striker Hamizan Abdul Aziz Sulaiman spearing the attack.

The striker had an effort brilliantly saved by MS ABDB goalkeeper Mohd Suhandy Hj Mahali in the 58th minute before Mohd Iqmal Hakeem Abdul Hamid fired his shot just inches wide from outside the penalty box a minute later.

MS ABDB replied a few minutes later when Budiman Hj Jumat sent Muhd Fadhli Hj Salleh through inside the penalty box, but the striker would fire a weak attempt straight to the goalkeeper.

Indera finally broke the deadlock when Reduan rose above everyone to head home Mohd Abu Bakar Mahari's cross from the left 12 minutes from time.

The night's other match at the Berakas Sports Complex saw Royal Brunei Police Forces Sports Council (MS PDB) fall to a 4-0 defeat to Liang Lumut Recreational Club Football Team (LLRC FT).

Six teams, Indera Sports Club, MS ABDB, MS PDB, LLRC FT and the national Under-19 and Under-23 teams, are featuring at the August 26 to September 1 tournament.

Joining the Under-23 team in Group A are Indera and MS ABDB, while Group B consists of the Under-19 team, MS PDB and LLRC FT.

The Under-23 side are currently preparing for the upcoming 27th edition of the Southeast Asian (SEA) Games in Myanmar in December and were edged 1-0 by the Indonesian national Under-23 team in a recent friendly at Yogyakarta.

The Under-19 team, meanwhile, will be competing at the Asean Football Federation Under-19 Youth Championships in Indonesia next month and the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Under-19 tournament in Thailand in October.

The tournament continues tomorrow with the Under-23 side taking on MS ABDB at the Berakas Sports Complex while the Under-19 side will be up against MS PDB at the Balapan Track and Field.

Both matches are expected to start at 8.15pm.

This tournament is the first of its kind this year and the main purpose of it is to provide the national Under-23 and Under-19 teams a number of competitive friendly matches as they prepare for their respective tournaments.The Brunei Times
