Mucha get off the blocks

27 April 08, Singapore: Following their 0-9 maulling at the hands of Hollandse Club Blue on the opening day of the season, Mucha Hockey regrouped well and produced a gutsy performance against a very unlucky Hollandse Club Oranje.

With revenge on their minds, Mucha took the game to the Dutch but were punished after Paul Kroonenberg dribbled his way into the scoring cricle and put the Oranje ahead after 13 minutes.

Instead of demoralising the Muchas, the goal inspired them to go all out to restore parity. They were rewarded for their endeavour when Inn Kuang slotted home to level the scores before half time.

The second half was even closer affair but despite all their possession the ORanje could not convert their chances and Andrew Mitchel did the damage and got the winner half way into the second term.

The goal gave Mucha a valuable lead and thus something to defend and defend they did till the end.

Final score 2-1 To Mucha Hockey. The Oranje are still awaiting their first win of the season.
