Photos Thanks to Guohong's GodSis:Joyce


Dreamz made light of the absence of few players to beat NTU Engg with an amazing 4 - 1 victory at Tampine SAFRA stadium.

FongGuan broke the deadlock 17min before the break with a beautiful through ball from Desmond. Alvin increased Dreamz leads in 60th min with a well-executed long shot that give their keeper no chance. Though NTUengg pulled back 1 goal, 2 goals in quick successive from Alvin (70, 75 min) who complete his hat trick give Dreamz a well-deserved victory.

Classy Dreamz batter AMKSS

Dreamz 4 - 1 AMKSS

Goals:
Desmond - 15min, 38min, 48min (pen)
Lyndon - 60min

Desmond struck a hat-trick as Dreamz continue their fine form in 2009 with an emphatic win against AMKSS. A Desmond's treble and an excellent Lyndon's strike gave Dreamz a comfortable victory.

First half

AMKSS were under pressure from the start and almost contributed to their own demise in the early stage when their defense let Fong Guan have a fantastic opportunity to break the deadlock, but their keeper parried the ball to safety.

Dreamz continue to dominate the game and enjoyed the better chances. They took the lead in the 15 minutes when Desmond latched a through pass from Lyndon and shot low past their keeper.

AMKSS quickly regain their composure and begin to challenge Dreamz. They have a couple of good chances to level the game through set pieces. They missed a good opportunity when a corner in the 25 min was cleared off the line by Jun Wei.

The mid field link play between Dreamz player continue remains as an increasing threat to AMKSS. It is a matter of time that Dreamz doubled their lead through an excellent display of teamwork.

Colin exchanged passes with Wei Xiang (WX) and WX's back heel flick to Desmond who timed his run to perfection in staying on-side, to drill a low shot into the right corner of the net.

It was unfortunate that Dreamz lead was reduced to half when Dreamz failed to handle a long ball. A lack of communication by Quan and Joo allow the striker of AMKSS to sneak in to flip a bouncing ball passed Joo into the net.

Second half

Dreamz were awarded a penalty shortly after the restart. The referee pointed to the spot when Desmond was being brought down in the penalty box. He picked himself up and despatched his shot straight down the middle to completed his hat trick.

AMKSS remained distinctly second best. With Quan and XiangJing marshalling the defense at their tip form coupled with the authoritative presence of Keat and Colin, Dreamz didn't give the opponent much chances to test Joo.

On the half-hour, a superb pass from Colin and set up a beautiful run for Lyndon, who took the ball on the left, dribble and score a brilliant goal off the far pole.

The second half is all about Dreamz and AMKSS struggle to have any meaningful shot on target. There's a lot of activities on the left with inter-play of Daniel and Eugene come close to further extend Dream's lead.

Though there are plenty of opportunities and missed chances from either side, it wasn't enough to raise the final thrust to breach both side defence.

There was little noteworthy action in the final 20 minutes of the match, the brightest moment being Fong guan fierce shot volley from 25 yards which flew awefully wide.

Dreamz 3 - 2 AMKSS

Goals:
35min: Fongguan
48min: Aik Meng
60min: Benjamin

Dreamz enters 2009 unbeaten in previous 4 games, from which they have scored more than 20 goals. The final scoreline on their first match of 2009 doesn’t fairly justify Dreamz dominance.

This is a match that Dreamz should won by a more comfortable margin. Though they failed to fire on all cylinders, Dreamz have acquired the knack of grinding out victories in pressing circumstances.

Credit also goes to the AMKSS who refused to buckle. At 3-0 up on the hour mark, Dreamz should have cruised home. Instead, they reached the final whistle rattled as 2opportunistic strikes by AMKSS breathed new life into the contest and forced Dream to fight and cling on for a win.

First half

Dreamz starts the game in a familiar 4-3-3 attack formation.

Though it was a slow start, the positive thing to take out of the first half is the fact that Dreamz created many opportunities and have many shots on target.

Dreamz is fast to take control of the pace of the game. Their skill supremacy is evident as most ball play is in the opponent half.

AMKSS is quick to close in and didn’t give Dreams midfield much space. Often Desmond is surrounded by more than 2 players while he looks to tread his pass to the 3 man strike-force of Fong Guan, Aik Meng and Elvin.

Dreamz persistency is rewarded in the 35min when Fong Guan out-muscled the defense to score from a through ball by Colin.

With Colin stamping his usual authority in midfield and excellent defensive partnership of Jun Wei and Guan Quan has limit AMKSS from creating any chances at Dreamz half.

Second half

Dreamz started the second half with the same commanding pace to the first.

Aik Meng doubled Dreamz’s lead with superb skill with a shot from outside the right edge of the penalty box that curved into the left far post, giving the keeper no chance.

Dreamz's leads were further extended shortly through a corner by Desmond. Though Junwei has the opportunity to score, he unselfishly presently the chance to Ben, who powerfully head home.

And although AMKSS was put under intense pressure, they soon started to confront Dreamz all over the pitch. A free kick at the edge of the penalty box was well saved by Joo. However, hope of clean sheet was not fulfill in this match. On 72min, an well taken free kick on the right side of the penalty box by the opponent creped under out-stretched arm of Joo.

Dreamz commitment to attack left them vulnerable at the back. As a cross was delivered from a attack down the left wing, their striker timed his run perfectly to head in powerfully, leaving Joo no chance.

Another potential match with AMKSS awaits as both teams looking to improve in their displays.

About the team:
Similar to Dreamz, AMKSS is formed by school friends coming together to play soccer, average age of 24.
They have been playing on this field regularly for the past 18 months.

They play a traditional 4-4-2.

The central defense is marshalled by their Vice Captain and they like to push their defense up. However, their full back is weak.

Midfield play tend to focus at the centre and is quick to close in on their opponent. They are weak at commanding the game.

It's not difficult to dominate this match from the midfield that will limit their chances.

Look forward to see you on Saturday for the match

Dreamz 5 – 1 Team Dyanmo

Significant:
1) Dreamz dedicated this match to Ben and Yi Mei as we celebrate and rejoice in their engagement.
2) Debut match for Elvin and Xiang Jing as they completed their transfer for an undisclosed fee.

Dreamz displayed an impressive and commanding play today as the players produced an attacking masterclass to secure a victory in dedication to Ben and Yimei.

Dreamz’s best player on the pitch was Benjamin, whose industrious effort helps to provide inspirational passes that led to goals and capped the day performance with a marvelous goal that will definitely be a strong contender for the Goal of the season.

Dreamz started the match with a new 4-3-3 formation. Although Dreamz took some time to get used to this formation, they were quick to gain the control of the match.

Dreamz scored early in the game through a corner superbly taken by Ben. It was flipped on by Desmond to the far post and Fongguan was there to head it in, giving Dream a well-deserved early lead

Motivated by the opening goal, Dreamz continue to push forward and was soon rewarded with 2 goals in quick succession as Fongguan completed his hat trick.

The first was a loose ball that was converted into goal as Fong Guan was at his potent best to side foot his strike passed the Dyanmo’s keeper. Soon Dreamz found them in an unassailable 3-0 lead through a quick counter attack by Dreamz. It was Ben’s defence splitting pass that found Fongguan who coolly finished it with a lovely lob over the keeper.

The play of the match came 5 minutes before the half-time whistle when Ben displayed his superb piece of individual play that took him passed several opponents. Although push to the corner of the pitch, he was not to be out done and managed to produce a superb curling shoot into the top right corner of the post, leaving the keeper stranded with no chance.

Second half began with the same tempo, but Dreamz unfortunately conceded an early goal. A wicked deflection deceived Joo and was thus not able to judge the flight of the ball accurately. Not wanting to give the opponents any chance to come back, Dreamz continue to attack. Desmond went closed several times, only for both posts to stop him. However, his hard work and understanding with Kok Hong soon allow himself to score a well taken goal just inside the penalty box.

The match ended with a 5-1 score line. Dreamz would like to officially delicate all the 5 goals to Ben and Yimei. We wish them a lifetime of happiness and when the big day finally arrives, we will all be there to help out. :)

DreamZ announced new signing..

The board of director after searching in the transfer market had announced their new signing for this season. They just put pen to paper to complete the free transfer of Tan Zhixiang to DreamZ.

'We have been negotiating for a few weeks now and I am glad that the deal was closed. You know what negotiations are like nowadays. They are never easy,' Board of Director told reporters.

Zhixiang actually played for DreamZ during one of the match last season and his signing will no doubt be a boast to the frontline of DreamZ. He can play anywhere down the flank and also as a striker. Packed with a powerful right leg shot and good vision, his signing also mean danger to Fongguan, the current top scorer of the team. However, an interview with him show that he is quite optimistic about the future and not afraid the face the challenge for first team place from Zhixiang.

The new signing is set to make his offical debut for the team in the match against Cherith Baptist Church at Beatty Secondary School on 20th April.
