As KKZ revisited Dunearn sec with another well bolstered squad, the aim was not to just win and keep the unbeaten streak going on, but rather to fine tune their play for the upcoming league. There was no better way to do it, than to take on the reigning CFL champions to give the soccer faithful a preview of what was to come in the league. Galaticos however, entered the match with a depleted squad, starting with only 9 men. They looked to be finally losing their unbeaten record against KKZ, but like i say, the soccer gods always have other ideas.

While KKZ enjoyed better possession, the passing was way awry, and tackling looked to be a premium skill only enjoyed by Hariboy and the defenders. Needless to say, the reigning champions made it look too easy, as they put up a good fight with just 9 men. As the half ended, the stalemate was yet to be broken, yet KKZ managed to pull together their act to make things look promising.

Though, Galaticos added one more player after the break, KKZ-ians seemed to have woken up their ideas, and they had a much better second half. They had many promising chances, and one of which fell to Hariboy, who picked up Victor running in through the right flank with a perfectly weighted pass. Victor controlled the ball perfectly, and stroked pass the keeper to open the scoring for KKZ. However, he couldn't open the floodgates, as more chances were wasted, and complacency set in once again.

One of the biggest sins of KKZ players on the field is to assume that the game is finished, even before it is, and on this day, it let Galaticos back into the game. Despite having an injured player, they managed to capitalise on a defensive error and score the equaliser. That was how the game ended. KKZ continued their unbeaten streak. Galaticos maintained theirs against KKZ, and further established their credentials as the team to beat.

KKZ have to understand 3 simple rules of soccer. Pass the ball effectively. Tackle your opponent for the ball if you dont have the ball. And finish your chances. That's all you need to know, to achieve your greatness. This team has huge potential. The only reason they have not achieved it yet, is because of failure to follow the basics. Learn to walk, before you fly. And trust me KKZ, the day you master your basics, you will definitely soar high!
