DPMM FC Extend Lead At The Top
By Dannie Abu Basrah

Bandar Seri Begawan - DPMM FC extended their lead at the top of the DPMM FC 4-team Football Championship 2006 with a 2-0 win over Sabah FA at the Jerudong Mini Stadium last night.

DPMM FC coach Buketa Ranko made a few changes from the side that triumph 3-0 in the opening game playing Arsyah Ayob in a central midfield position as he partnered Shahrazen up-front with Brazilian Rodrigo Lombardo Tosi while hard man Pg Sallehudin Pg Hj Damit was placed in a three-man defence.

The formation proved to be working well which presented Rodrigo Lombardo Tosi plenty of goal scoring opportunities. The Brazilian's first came on the 16"' minute but only managed to hit the side netting where he was guilty not to score again on the 29th minute, failing to capitalise from a one-on-one situation.

Central defender Rene Komar too had a go at the Sabah goal pushing up for a corner as he saw his attempt cleared off the goal line and Tosi had two more chances before the break.

Sabah FA's best chance of the half came from Rosdin Wash on the 23' minute from a flowing move as his powerful 20-yard shot hit the inside of the right post but unfortunately bounced out off the danger area.

DPMM FC introduced trial player Thato Siska from the restart in place of Rosmini Hj Kahar and the move instantly paid dividend on the 54th minute as he scored the opener with a curling shot to the right side of goal, adding to his two goals tally scored in the first match.

Misfiring first half striker Tosi finally managed to get his name on the score sheet scoring with a cheeky goal chipping the ball over the approaching goalie five minutes from time to seal the game 2-0 for DPMM FC.
