As the day progressed, they found their groove, and the rest was for the history books.

Notable wins from our teams include a 5-1 win against Borussia Academy Singapore for the FCKL U8s, a 6-1 win against Chelsea FC IDC for the U9s and U11s, coincidentally, 8-0 against Coerver Coaching B for the U10s, and the U12s getting a 1-0 win against Active SG (AFA Woodlands DC) in a group that saw game times forced to cut short due to weather restrictions.

The FC Kuala Lumpur contingent surpassed expectations when all teams booked their spots in the Cup knockout stages, with the Under 10s finishing top of the table in their group, which included strong teams such as Lestari Junior FC (Malaysia) and ANZA Soccer (Singapore).

However, there were many positives to take home, as well as participant medals!

We would to congratulate our teams and coaches in a decent performance, with the hope that many lessons were taken home to Malaysia and applied to the training ground, before the new season beckons.
