Pegasus fight back from two goals down to draw 2-2 with YFCMD
Coach Lee Chi-kin says they only have themselves to blame after missing a host of chances to close out the game
YFCMD were punished for a host of missed chances as they squandered a two-goal lead and allowed Sun Pegasus to fight back for a draw in the BOCG Life Premier League on Saturday.
Had they taken their chances at Mong Kok Stadium, YFCMD would have moved into third place in the soccer league but instead the disappointing 2-2 draw keeps them in fifth position.
"We have to blame ourselves for letting them off the hook," said coach Lee Chi-kin. "We created a couple of clear-cut chances to extend the lead but failed to close out the match and allowed them to come back.
"Pegasus are very strong in attack and when they threw everything at us in the second half, our defence came under a lot of pressure and we suffered some nervous moments.

"But still, one point is not a bad result considering the fact we are still in contention for a place in the Play-off Cup and I hope the boys will not be affected by the result and stay focused for the remaining three matches."
Lee paid tribute to many of his young players for improving their skills and helping the side stay competitive, even against the "Big Four" teams.
