Cambodian Tiger 0 - Phnom Penh Crown 0
Western Stadium, 15-8-2015
As many goals at the Western Stadium as there are tigers in Cambodia as Cambodian Tiger forced Phnom Penh Crown to drop their 5th and 6th points of the season. Saturday three o'clock is a sacred time for British football fans and, as if in homage to the home of football, a kick-off at a similar time.
Again a sizeable crowd filling the single stand at Western Stadium. Crown fans to the right, Tiger to the left conducted by their Japanese style tiger-girls. Crown dominated early on with Dani Kouch marauding down the left touch-line and the champions looking to get into space on the flanks; Shane Booysen and Sary Matnorotin switching between left and right touchlines.
However tiger were resilient and in Japanese Yasuyuki Yoshida they may have the best goal-keeper in the league. In the second half, as tiring legs allowed more space to be exploited by both teams, Yoshida made a couple of excellent saves whilst, in contrast to his opposite number, always looking in command of his penalty area. Crown keeper Yok Ary must be giving the substantial Crown coaching staff some jitters. A Grobbelaar-esque tendency to rush off his line - at least three times relying on sweeper-keeper headers.
Both teams had chances to seal the 3 points Privat Mbarga - a robust and short-tempered number 9 from Cameroon - a wonderful run down the left and a vicious shot just over the bar. Kihara Maskau, Tigers second Japanese starter, small but steely and creating space for this team mates. Tiger look like a team finding their feet and should make the end-of-season play-offs.
