Central Park International winless streak continues for the 3rd game running as they were held 0-0 by Official 10 in a dour match where the Sharks had less than 6 shots on goal. Official 10 on the other hand had a perfect opportunity to sneak a win in the 2nd half but some tireless running by Matthew ensured that while the team had not won in their last 3 games, they ensured that they got at least a point from the match which both teams looks real unlikely to score.

Right at the start of the match, Murugesan had the perfect opportunity to give his team an early lead but somehow some quick feet by the opposition defense meant that the chances were lost. It was the closest the Sharks ever came to scoring as both teams somehow were intent to cancel each other out in every department as the heat sapped the energy from both set of players. As the match wore on, Sharks set-pieces off the corner by Michael Jensen were particularly creating opportunities for his team but no one were able to capitalise on the chances. With the clock ticking away, the referee blew for half-time for a poor first half. The 2nd half weren't much different as the Sharks failed to gain any foothold whatsoever in the game, almost forcing the likes of Murugesan who was starved of any services to come deep for possession. Fiet though had a penalty turned down when he was brought down in the box but the referee waved play on as both teams worked tirelessly to find the opener. Official 10 had the perfect opportunity to break the dead-lock with 5 minutes remaining but under pressure from Matthew, Martin safely put his team in the game as Sharks held on for a point.

The manager said after the game, 'You don't score, you don't win matches.'
