Hockey (M) to QFs

Encouragement and cheers can be heard as team se7en’s male hockey players were getting ready for their match against hall 15.

It was all excitement and anticipation as both teams went all out to bring victory for their respective halls. After a series of short smooth passes, team se7en supporters went wild when our players strike our opening first goal by Lik Sin in barely 4 minutes of the game. The hockey court was once again filled with shouts of support when Hi Chael brought team se7en a step closer to quarter finals by scoring the second goal during the ninth minute. The team’s confidence grew even more as Hi Chael scored the next goal in succession when the previous thrill has yet to die down, pulling the lead away from our opponent with a score of 3-0 in the first half of the match.

Although victory was clearly in sight, our players did not relent, and in last than one minute after the second half of the match, Najib did his team proud by intercepting the opponent’s goalkeeper and scoring a reverse-hit goal, putting the scores to 4-0.

Our players played with determination and presented superb teamwork, but were unable to pull the score margin further due to a few near misses and wasted opportunities. Our opponent also attempted to score several times, but to no avail due to the excellent saves made by our goalkeeper, Fahmi. Needless to say, the final whistle blew in a matter of seconds, and we were able to advance to the quarter finals!

Way to go, team se7en!
