Last weekend, Sime Darby’s Training ground at Bukit Jelutong
opened its gate giving way to CABJ for a friendly match against Sime Darby FC
(U23).
Not discouraged by the rainy season, Gliders were seen at
the field as early a 3:30pm eager to step its foot for a match that they have
been waiting for the longest time.
Neighbours, friends and supporters of CABJ were seen flooding
the field at Jalan Kubah with umbrellas to watch the game and to also get the
feel of the field that has been a barrier from the community for nearly 1 year.
BJRA’s president Mr Fhamy and Secretary Mr Razlan Isa was also seen at the
field watching the game.
Proud parents of Azrul Raimie and Ruffie |
CABJ stressed that they have nothing to prove from this
friendly game but to gain exposure and experience playing with a well
established team.
Through the drizzling rain, the game started off in a fast
pace having CABJ making the first attempt of attack. Though Sime Darby scored
two goals first in the first half, CABJ’s striker Zurin Wayne managed to cut
through the defence and scored CABJ’s first goal. Sime Darby then scored
another goal leading the game at CABJ – 1 SDFC – 4 during the first half.
Come second half, many would say CABJ’s defends and mid
fielders played a more controllable role maintaining the score to 4-1 nearly throughout
the whole second half. A great teamwork led to a goal as the final touch made by Ikram Al Rashid our newest addition Agus Raqib, a good run in and scored . Final score was CABJ – 2 SDFC – 5.
After the game, the night ended with dinner together with
some of the SDFC players whilst watching the Manchester Vs Arsenal game at food
station.
CABJ would like to thank all who came to support us on that
wonderful day and though it was our first game playing in the gated field, we’d
really hope to have weekly game such as this, bridging the community together through
the beautiful game of football. Perhaps one day, with hot dogs, sodas and chips.
