Santos FC 1 - Kolei United FC 2

Santos FC played one of its last remaining 3 matches in the 2007 HFA league yesterday (22/05/08) against Kolei United FC at the KGVI School north field. Santos FC lost 2-1 to Kolei United FC in a hard fought physical match. There was no excuse for Santos FC's loss as the Club was without its coach since the beginning of this year and also the boys have not been consisitently attending trainings and most lacked fitness. Although the Santos FC boys did have a few scoring chances and enjoyed a fair possession of the ball it was obvious that Kolei FC players were fit both physcially and mentally and deserved the win.

The Santos FC management however has encouraged the players to accept the 2-1 loss and concentrate and focus on the next match against Eastern Knights (Island Brothers) on this coming weekend being Saturday 24th May 2008 at 3.30pm. The Santos FC coach did turn towards the end of the match when the boys were already 2-1 down. The coach made the assurance to take the trainings for the boys and to prepare them for the 2 remaining matches and asked the players to turn up at the training ground this Friday afternoon being the 23rd May 2008 at 5.00pm. No photos were taken of the last match between Santos FC and Kolei FC - hopefully some photo shots will be taken in the next match with Eastern Knights.
