It's deja vu all over again...

Sunday, June 20, 2004

An approximately similar incident happened to me today just like how it happened last week. This noon, I went to Sunway Pyramid for the Winning Eleven 7 International (WE7) tournament and fortunately, this time the tournament was held in league format. And since each group (there are 4 groups) consists of 14 players, everyone will at least play 13 games. Much better than the amount I played last week, which was just 2.

My tournament started with a HUGE LOSS! Darn huge loss, coz I lost 4-0. Argh... okay2, understandable, coz I used Brazil and that was the first time I played WE7 (before this I played only PES3). I knew I should've used France, my natural team of choice. Nape laaa ngade sgt pilih Brazil.

My 2nd and 3rd games were fantastic, albeit quite fortunate. I won both, but mostly they're due to either my opponent yg buat silap ataupun aku yg dpt lucky break coz opponent's defense tiba2 kucar-kacir. And since I lost using Brazil, the remaining games I played using France. Things were getting rosy here...

But just when I thought everything'll be fine, I drew 3 straight games after that. Ugh... the first game was understandable la nape I drew, coz my opponent mmg terer punye org la. Kaki belasah, siap ada yg dia belasah 6-3 tuh! But I had a chance to win! I was leading 3-2 with only around 10 minutes left in the 2nd half, tapi I panicked kot, and he scored a quick goal, making the final scoreline 3-3. but okay la, dia org terer, so orait la gak dpt seri.

But the game after that yg takleh terima. mmg siot... marah giler. dia budak belasahan group aku nih, I think he lost every single match that he played before playing with me. So, I thought, hmm.. maybe bole makan la kot. Lagi2 after leading 2-0. Skali tiba2 budak tu score a goal in the second half (own goal actually!). Terus aku dah tak sure je. And after that dia score lagi. Mmg siot... There was a chance skali tu for me to go 3-2 up, tapi mmg budak tu main busuk. I was clean on goal, dia gi sliding tackle my player from behind. Arghhh!!! He was red carded, but I just got a free kick, which was very unfair. :( tapi after that, I failed to score anymore goals. Seri lagi. 2-2. :(

The next match mmg best la. Aku seri 3-3, but it was a come-from-behind performance! I was trailing 0-2 in the second half, tapi managed to draw level jadi 2-2. Gilerr! Pastu mamat tu score lagi jadi 3-2, but I was able to score again, making it 3-3. Tu mmg best la, tapi the scoreline tak suka la... I want to win. :(

Tapi the next 2 games were foolish. Tak best langsung. I lost once, 0-2 and in the last match I drew 0-0. Bosan sungguh. He scored both goals from crosses. Tak suka aaa... tak skill la cross2... :D takpe la, I accept that aku pun tak terer, sbb tak score langsung. :) Pastu yg draw 0-0 tu, I should've been able to win coz the guy I was playing against was a deflated guy. I think he lost most of his matches and dia rasa dia dah takleh nak qualify, so dia dah takde rasa competitive sgt. He played slambek je, even using Belgium playing against me. Tapi I couldn't take advantage of it and just drew 0-0.

All in all, I won twice, lost twice and drew four times. kalo at least 2 of those draws were wins kan best, ada gak la chance nak qualify. So I only have just 10 points out of a potential 24 points. Unless I win all my remaining 5 games, I don't feel like I stand a chance of qualifying. Well, cuba je la. mana tau... Here's hoping for the best! :)
