HK GIANTS vs Yong Ngai

After a convincing first win, we were back on the pitch this Saturday 2nd of November in order to show that this was not a mistake. Playing the team ranked last in the league was a trap, as we might play easy and make mistakes.

Warm up and motivational speech, we were starting in defense. As expected, the first minutes were quite messy, with us defending tough but lacking of focus for a few seconds and give our opponents the chance to score. Our attack not being very successful, the first 20 minutes were a long show of failed shoots from both parts. Yong Ngai taking a time out at 5-5, probably in order to rest their players, we pushed everyone to play hard and strong and stop taking it easy.
Thankfully, the whole team heard that call and passing the 2nd gear, we scored a 8-1 in the last 10 minutes to reach the half time on the score of 13-6.

Second half started quite like the first one, with some miss and easy plays. A few mistakes and fancy miss shoots didn't allow us to increase the gap and until the 14th minutes, the difference was still of 8 goals.
But with Yong Ngai starting to feel tired and without substitutions, we finally increased that goals difference to 10 goals at 20 minutes in the second half.
The last 10 minutes showed a strong defense, that we should put up at every games, leaving our opponents not scoring even one goal.
The final whistle blew and a large second victory for us 27-12.

Besides the large score, not all was good. A few mistakes and fancy things that would put us in a dangerous situation against better team, and we must make sure that we don't give away chances to score easy goals.

Our keeper Jake made a wonderful game despite being tired of playing University game one hour before. Florian, best scorer of the game with 5 goals and a strong flu, Jack, who organized the attack very well and helped every players to score a few goals.
To be noted that it is probably the first game ever played that no Giants took a 2 minutes!

We need to keep practicing and keep this good momentum. Our 2 coming games are also must win if we want to feel safer and see the return games more relax.

Hope to see everyone at the trainings and see you next week for another, hopefully, win report.

HK GIANTS vs Tuen Mun

After a quite difficult game against I.ROBOT, lost 27-13, we were back on the pitch this Saturday 2nd of November to challenge the champion of last year's division 2, Tuen Mun.

With them losing by only 1 goal against I.ROBOT, and having some large size players, we were motivated and ready to give our best!

After another drama with the referees because of the front number of our new jerseys, we were ready to play in our beebs and turn this stupid issue into our first win.

And there it was. With a fantastic start, a very strong defense on our side, we were leading 3-0 after only 2 minutes. Attack was smooth and accurate, which never really happened so far! Our opponents were having some issue finding solutions, scoring their first goal after only 6 minutes. Thankfully for them, out attack started missing some open shoots and we let them come back on us at 5-4.
But for once, we were the one deciding to pass the 2nd gear, and in 10 minutes, scored a 7-1 to take a safe distance before the half time. With a few substitutions and time out, we ended the first half on the score of 14-6. Probably the best 30 minutes of handball we played this season.

Decided to not give away this advance and stay focus, we strengthened the defense to balance our fail and inactivity in attack. After 15 minutes in the 2nd half, the score was only 16-9 and our opponents of the day started to give up as well as getting angry.
A few 2 minutes penalty started to be given away, as well as 1 red card per team. It has to be noted that the referees managed quite well and didn't let the things go bad.
And a few minutes later and some stress, the final blow arrived, confirming our first victory of the season, 21-13.

Overall, a great game, fantastic mentality and motivation. There is always some things to improve, but we definitely see the results of the trainings. We need to keep going on, especially with 3 games coming that are must win!

Highlights of the game for Jake, our keeper, who probably stopped more than half the shoots, Eric, best scorer with 8 goals, Jack, Jens and Benoit, for their attack/defense rotation that went well!
Big thanks to all the players and supporters, for being there and playing or not, being motivated!

We have another few trainings scheduled, we hope to see everyone there to keep the momentum and continue our wins strike!
