final score VJC vs SAJC : 1-0 (goal scored in golden goal time) in awe and wonder. totally speechless with our victory over SAJC in extra time (golden goal) 1. goal scored in 3 minutes left of extra time - 3 is the number representing grace - not worshiping the number, but it means alot to me in this situation 2. mistrap (flop) by the SAJC defender led to the goal - Cheeyong's pass went to a defender who mistrapped, - and was collected by Amos who was just at the right position at that time - indicating it was not our own ability or tactical plan 3. scored by Amos, who never scored in semifinals before (he was in 3 hockey semi finals before this) 4. goal scored by Amos was at a very tight angle (near the baseline) 5. shot taken by Amos was initially going to hit post, but hit the SAJC keeper's pads and went in 6. it was Amos first shot in the whole game. 100% success rate (definitely God) 7. Amos did not even reverse the whole game. NOT EVEN DURING WARM UP. 7 points to prove my point. All glory to God. no matter what others say about our win like that it was Amos' skill and a good timed pass i dont really care, but i can only gaze upon God's hand in our match, and be thankful. no amount of words can articulate my joy. really so honoured to play in this team that God has given me even to captain it is my great privilege. and this match has deeply humbled me i believe God will continue to see this team through all the way up till the final whistle of our final match as He has already did. and whatever the outcome, all glory be unto God. God's grace is already so evident for He definitely has a plan especilly since He has brought us thus far, it's not going to be out victory, but the Lord's. knowing that RJC drew 0-0 with SAJC in the quarter finals, i was feeling so fearful and stressed, even till the end fearing a dejavu of 2009 in VS when we lost in extra time to JWSS in the semi finals especially when our first half of extra time started off sloppy it's physically and mentally tiring felt like collapsing, (but thank God for Mr Seet, Mr Singh and especially Mr Najib, who continued to push us and encourage us even till the last minute) and i couldnt rest well the night before, but there was really actually nothing to fear in the first place everything was already perfectly designed and planned by God *even the raining and postponing of the match to allow us to clam down and re-analyse the match and the many miscalls from the referees did not stop us* (pray that senior referees like Khabaria will referee our match) let God's will be done, not ours so i shall not fear, but in the words of Joshua, to only be strong and courageous. feeling tired, but thankful. not gonna depend on my own strength anymore. for my flesh will indeed fail me, but never the Lord. excited about what more is to come, teach me Lord. hope this testimony will encourage others to push on till the end. and: In every victory, let it be said of me, my source of strength, my source of hope, IS CHRIST ALONE awkward celebrations after the goal was scored. shall not comment further on this, by there must be some match analysis done to correct this HAHA and thank you Mr Najib for the wonderful MacDonalds treat after the match and for pushing us on through the match i am indeed very grateful for such people placed above me. proud of my team. seeing every exhausted face and every injury just made the victory so much more sweeter we gave it our all we fought till the end and got the result we managed to break SAJC and by God's grace, we'll do the same against RJC as mr singh always tells us: TEAM - Together Everyone Achieve More we've already come this far. let's finish this with a bang. pumped up and ready nothing to lose, everything to gain. come on guys, let's finish this. small prayer before match: credits to Aqeela for the photos, thanks!
