Incomplete Kicks go down to Vodacom FC

The Blues represented by player coach Captain Ponkic, Sir Little Melf, Rubinho and Leonardinho plus a non-Kicks goal minder went down to a determined Vodacom side. Vodacom went 2 goals ahead in the last 5 minutes of the 1^st half before Sir Little Melf set up Rubinho with a superb pass from which Rubinho dribbled past the last defender before sending the Keeper the wrong way. Vodas scored their 3^rd in the 2^nd half but Captain Ponkic combined well with Leonardinho who scored Kicks’ 2^nd goal to restore the team’s hope. Kicks tried hard to force a draw but it wasn’t to be as Vodas Keeper was up to the occasion and his players scored the 4^th in the last minute. 4-2 was the final score: Rubinho [1], Leonardinho[1].

Kicks share spoils with Zana Park

McDinovic put The Blues ahead in 2^nd minute following up on a great pass from Sir Little Melf, but the Zana Indians equalized shortly afterwards. Rubinho dribbled past Indian defense and handed the rest of the job to McDinovic who took over from where Rubinho left off by passing the ball through the legs of the last defender before sending the keeper the wrong way, but again Zana equalized.

In the 2^nd half Captain Ponkic came with a long range short as always to put Kicks 3-2 up and Zana did the same. Cedric was getting irritated by Zana’s equalizing goals and took 2 men down before finishing his goal in style with a ‘cheep‘, likewise Zana equalized. This time Leonardinho went forward to do the business for Kicks and managed to drive the ball past through keeper’s legs. Just when Kicks thought they were done with Zana, in last few seconds Zana equalized. 5-5 was the final score: McDinovic[2], Ponkic[1], Cedric[1], Leonardinho[1].

Lucasino was there to observe and is more likely to mark his return this week. McDinovic is out for this week due to other commitments. Dumino still nursing injury and not sure if he will recover in time.

Kicks shock log leaders

The return of midfield genius Denverio and a super charged McDinovic inspired Kicks to a historic victory over log leaders Siyabangena. The Blues were represented by Captain Ponkic, McDinovic, Denverio, Dumino, Leonardinho and young star from development Tomzic when they took on a team that has never lost a single game this season. Siyabangena, the last season’s Gold winners knew they were in for a tough game when they saw Kicks with a pen and paper putting something in writing before the game.

The Blues came up with a winning master plan to which all players adhered to. Kicks fans were delighted to see their side playing a much disciplined style that put them 3 goals ahead in the first half. Irritated by Kicks 3 goals lead, Siyabangena came back very aggressive and even much faster than they were in the first half. But it wasn’t to be for them since Captain Ponkic marshaled his defense so well with the genius Denverio while the deadly combination of Dumino and McDinovic plus Tomzen kept on posing big threats upfront. Siya scored 3 but Kicks scored 2 more to win the game 5-3. Kicks goals came from Captain Ponkic [1], and a double brace from man of the match McDinovic [4].

Kicks go down to SS FC

The Blues were represented by Captain Ponkic, McDinovic, Rubinho, Dumino, Leonardinho and player-coach Sir Little Melf when they were engaged in probably the toughest fair game Kicks has ever played. Leonardinho got a knock on his ankle in the first minute of the game but later recovered and got back into the game. The super fast SS FC scored the first 2 goals and Kicks responded with 2 before half time. But all hell broke loose at the 2nd half when the two sides threw each other with goals in a battle that saw SS FC scoring 8 more goals against only 4 more Kicks goals. With the level of unmatched skill SS FC showed it came as no surprise to see Kicks midfield maestro Rubinho applauding SS FC while competing for the same ball. Even the workaholic Captain Ponkic went out for a break for the first time since the league started. SS FC deservedly won the game 10-6 and the fast paced performance they introduced in the game saw Dumino suffering from hamstring injuries at the end of the game. Kicks goals came from Sir Little Melf [1], Rubinho[1], Leonardinho[1] and McDinovic grabbed a hat-trick [3].
