MFFL Week 2 Highlights

Sunway Storm (20) – KL They Hate Us (20)

One would expect nothing less then spectacular football when these two teams take the field, as the Storm look to avenge their loss in last year’s championship game and perhaps hand the defending champions their second loss in a row. THU was looking to get back on track by putting their first win on the board.

From the kickoff whistle is was apparent that this game was going to be a physically grinding one as both these teams went at each other. It was THU’s offense that would get on the board first as QB #7 Shahir Khalid would connect with WR #80 Razeen “Air Force One” Khalid in the endzone.

The Storm would answer back with QB #9 Jeff Pelland connecting with a wide open WR #15 Jean De Villiers off a mean play fake taking THU’s defense by surprise. And thus began the battle of the Wide Receivers.

Razeen Khalid would find the endzone again as “Air Force One” continued the air raid on the Storms secondary while Jean De Villiers would keep the game close by returning THU’s kick-off for a TD just before the half. Both teams would find the endzone once more in the second half ending the game at 20 points apiece.

Ladies and Gents! The first OT period of the season! Both teams get a PAT attempt each to decide a winner. Should both teams fail to convert, the game ends as a draw.

Jeff Pelland made a crucial deflection on defense as Shahir Khalid tried to find Razeen Khalid once more to put the game on ice. Jeff would then connect on a short pass to Jean De Villiers in what looked to be a TD. The officials however ruled Jean down before the endzone, ending the game in a tie.


MFFL Game Ball: Goes to the both teams for providing the fans with an extremely entertaining game of football! A game this highly contested so early in the season makes waiting in the hot Sun totally worth it.
