Unknowns defeated long-time arch rivals FC Bayern 2-1 at Orchid Park's artificial pitch on Sunday morning, with striker Zhenrong grabbing a brace.
Unknowns and FC Bayern have a long-running history of fierce rivalry, and matches in the past have often been hot-tempered and controversial. There was indeed no love lost between both teams.
Under the sweltering heat of about 32 degrees celsius, Unknowns kicked off and proceeded to dominate possession and had the lion's share of attacking opportunities in the first half, but FC Bayern held on resilliently. Zhenrong had a fair claim for a penalty when he was bundled inside the box, but the referee waved play on. At half time the score was still 0-0.
In the 52nd minute, Unknowns finally broke the deadlock. Midfield general Apple was kicked in the shin and went down painfully, the referee played the advantage and Gabriel passed the ball to Zhenrong, who made no mistake with a superb finish.
Minutes later, Zhenrong has another far more legitimate claim for a penalty when he was clumsily manhandled by a couple of opposing defenders, but once again the referee refused to give a penalty, much to the disgust of the 40000 fans watching from the HDB flats.
Angered by the referee's biasness, Unknowns pressed on and finally got the goal to seal their victory. Sherman's supplied a sublime pass to Zhenrong, who applied another wonderful finish.
At 2-0, FC Bayern had nothing to lose and tried franatically to launch a comeback. Throwing everything at the Unknowns, they eventually got a goal back about 10 minutes before the final whistle to ensure an exciting finale. But the unknowns defended resolutely, and grounded out the win.
