With the round 13 match against Eagle FC abandoned due to the team's disqualification and 3 points abandoned to Kamikaze, all eyes were set on the Round 14 clash with Prisonerz FC where a win will virtually assure them of their first title.
18 Apr @ Springfield Secondary School 3pm
The team arrived at the Springfield sec pitch, with a quiet confidence that they will get the maximum points needed to sew up the title and kick off their celebration parties. However, within minutes of the kickoff, their moods were dampened as a long range shot from the Prisonerz midfielder managed to escape all the bodies and end up in the back of the net to give Prisonerz a surprise 1-0 lead. However, credit must be given to the way KKZ recovered from that setback. Champions are made not just by the positives, but how they recover from the negatives. Before the half was over, Kamikaze found itself up by a 3-1 scoreline, thanks to two penalties from Victor King, converted after fouls on Cristiano Barathi and Havey Adebayor sandwiching a surprise goal from Neshta who once again scored against Prisonerz after netting the centurion goal against them in a pre-season friendly.
Kamikaze started the second half even stronger, as Jraj made it 4-1 just before the hour mark to put the leaders in the driving seat and virtually kick off the celebrations. However, that would be to be the reason for the meltdown that was to occur. KKZ started celebrating mentally, and without the midfield presence of Hari and Yasin to stabilise the midfield, the game soon saw KKZ concede 3 hilarious goals straight out from a blooper fest. The play was so bad and comical, that KKZ almost conceded 2 more and lose the game. However, they managed to hold on to a point and avoid a completely disastrous outing against Prisonerz Fc.
The fact that KKZ actually fought to salvage a point against Prisonerz can only be attributed to one factor. Complacency. Arrogance is cool. Complacency is not. But putting this one bad result out of a completely glorious season, KKZ still remain confident. The league WILL BE SEWED UP IN THEIR NEXT LEAGUE MATCH. As much as El Calcio is a friendly team, they have to face a backlash from the team that is looking forward to winning its FIRST EVER league title. A response will be given.
