Team: Gary (goalkeeper), Sebastian, Gregoire, David Nesbit, Michael, Iwan, Matthew, Carlo, Roberto, Jean Pierre, Cedric, Ivan, Yaccine, Begin, Carlos, Marco. After a dream 25 minute journey from Rasuna Said I arrived to find that ISCI had not registered Viking’s booking of the pitch. Luckily the rugby players who should have been training did not show so the game was on. We had a very full turn out with 16 players but unfortunately no Bambang so I had another attempt at keeping goal. Right from the kick off it was evident from the Vikings play that we would have a good chance of winning. But as usual although Xpats had a great deal of possession we were not able to convert the chances generated. That could also be said for the Vikings who appeared to be lacking a creative midfield and produced very few incisive through balls to their lumbering centre forward.

In fact apart from one save by the post and a ball spilled to the feet of a Vikings forward, I saw very little action. A major difference from previous games was a stronger more organised back four and more determined defensive play in the our midfield. In the second half, good work by Carlos, Yaccine and Marco up front resulted in several Xpat corners. Eventually from one of these Jean Pierre headed in of the post. Probably due to being in new territory – the lead – we had quite a few panicky moments after that, most notably when I dropped the ball at the blind Viking players feet. In the end Vikings could not produce anything but a great deal of hacking and we finally achieved our first victory of the season.
Gary (X-Pats)

It was a very disappointing perfomance by Vikings against a well organized and very compact Expat team. The match was decided on soft goal after a corner and with Vikings failing to convert as a matter of fact not even kicking the ball on two 100% chances. Credit to Expat for a good solid performance

MOM: Andreas Jakubowski (JIS),# 32 Indonesian midfielder (Knudde)
Referee appreciation : 5/10 (from JIS)
Cards : Lee Hawkins (yellow) (JIS), Stephane Thos (yellow) (JIS), Stefan van den Hende (yellow) (Knudde) 

A physical game in which JIS was struggling to find its shape. With 5 players missing from the usual starting line up , it was always going to be a tough battle against a much improved Knudde side.

Knudde took the lead halfway the first half, taking advantage of a terrible defensive JIS mistake. In the 2nd half Knudde could have sealed the three points, but failed to score a 2nd goal, thanks to outstanding goalkeeping from Andreas Jakubowski. They were punishished, when Uwe converted a penalty to tie the match.1-1
Jurrien (JIS)

Ref was terrible and well below the 5 that Jurrien gave. He was very consistent though and both JIS and Knudde suffered ,which added fuel to the frustration and physical challenges on the pitch. After all a deserved draw, with good chances wasted by Knudde and a goal by JIS in the 2nd half to reward the continuous pressure on Knudde's defence.
