Last night was a busy night for many Clubs and Asian countries, so now, it is our busy time. Just to let you guys know that we have added our Facebook likebox to the sidebar, so if you haven’t visited our page on Facebook, do check it out and of course, Like it! =) So you can keep up with our blog updates and some other news.

Saudi Arabia 3-0 Hong KongWe understand that Saudi Arabia is a much stronger team, but our Hong Kong team was looking alright in the first half, with a bit of luck at our side, we manage to keep the nil nil scoreline until 46 minutes. The first two goals came at the additional time of the first half, after so many opportunities, Saudi Arabia managed to score, one after another. The third goal came early in the second half, our team look much stable and organized afterwards, but far from getting a goal. Three goals down look very unlikely for Hong Kong to stand a chance in qualifying, but we know our players will at least give it a good fight! Second leg will play at home on 28th July.

China 7-2 Laos
For your information, Laos was leading two nil and China fought back and scored seven goals in a row afterwards. China looks good in qualifying to the next round.

Peru 4-1 VenezuelaThis is definitely an exciting scoreline to see, as this year’s COPA America rarely has a match that had more than four goals, there were a few, but not as much as we expected. This match definitely spoke for South American’s attacking football, and trust us, all the goals were terrific! Watch highlight if you have missed the match. Tonight will be the final of COPA 2011, Uruguay vs Paraguay, you don’t want to miss it!
