so... it was final soccer day......  SMJA padang....
I was on d' bench..... (each game only 11 players... d' rest wait and see ...as substitutes...) ..d' game came to 2nd half....
I thought .. I would never play.... just watch... be a supporter to own team...... but a sudden changed...  our striker.. forward was injured and had to leave padang... so to replace.. urgent replacement was pointed..me.. I was ready of coz...  except.. position.. I played to defend... yess... I was d' last 5 people used to play hard as  defender to backup forward players.....
Allah will... gave ways...  as in d' middle last ..10 minutes.. before d' game over... I only ran up to d' goal posts .... a sudden through ball ....right to my position...as was my luck possibly ....stopped d' ball...  made round banana kick to d' goal keeper... Rosli if Not mistaken... couldn't predict my ball...  couldn't stop and it was a simple goal..... Next.. last few minutes... I missed few chances... otherwise I made another goal.... that's it... I could remember.... NO praised... of happiness... ..  but I remembered till today.... 



CLUB level...
in 70s..... Football... football ......so many playing ...games .....comparing studying...
Youths... club in our area called ... Ikatan Belia Berakas .... so in short.. IBB ........
Our team... established d' name as one of d' strongest challenger.... ........ at that time...

   so in short.... we also crossing d' border..to find challenger...
                             above .. below....were taken in Miri....... padang.... Kampong Wireless...









d' BIG trophy.... was d' state champion..   Final
                        IBB vs Persatuan Sumbiling






d' place was ... Padang Besar... Bandar Brunei...

a few of our players were also...National team players..... ex players.....
                                  eg..... Ali Ismail .... goal keeper .......... Haji Idris........ defender




 Our manager..... boss...Haji Karim .....  before d' game...




after d' winning game... each player got d' medal.....
















so lastly... going home with...   state champion trophy....

                    I joined another club... under.. Education....late 70s
                                                      Klab Bolasepak Pejabat Pelajaran....

we played a strong team in KK.. Sabah... under d' leadership James Wong (Dato)....and his brother..... unfortunately....d' result........   we lost minimal margin......
