1991 AISS Inter-Class Football Tournament Flashback - 4K vs 4A

July, 1991 Flashback: On this month 20 years ago, 4K made it to the 1991 Inter-class football final on this day with a 2-0 victory over tournament favourite 4A. 4K midfielder Zulkeflee scored the opening goal by sliding in from the far post & remember 4A protested against the goal, can't remember for what reason. Striker Yongquan added a second goal later on to complete a shocking victory.

‎4A was deemed to be one of the two hot favourite for the 1991 inter-class tournament due to the school team players that they have. Notable 4A players include our ex-3K team-mates Rudy and Mohd Noor. Their playmaker was a very short Malay boy who play for the schoolteam and possess Maradona like skills. Think his name was Na-im.

Due to Mary Loh husband escaping from reality on that day, I had to play in defence and back then, my best hope for this game was a draw. Expect them to come hard at us. I had requested to Ghazali that he had to play as goalkeeper, not outfield as we needed a strong defence against formidable opponents. He did and together, we kept a clean sheet. Actually, 4A wasn't as strong as what we had perceived and we were quite comfortable in this game after Zulkeflee gave us an unexpected early lead. There was big protest from 4A players, regarding the goal. I can't remember what is the exact incident but I feel should be a legal goal. Even after the game ended with us winning 2-0, there was talk about 4A lodging an appeal against our victory. We didn't follow up on that and coupled with our victory over 4I, 4K advanced to the Inter-class football final as the finalist, having top the group.

It should be noted that perhaps the 4A game was play first before 4I game but both matches are played on the same day. Last week, I've written its 4I game first but thinking back, it might have been the other way. Either way, 4K had advanced to the final and it was ole ole ole for the class.

It is also noted that Mary Loh's husband is about to get his share of music themed " Escaping from reality" back in class for missing the two games.
