Bin triumph while Dihua failed miserably!

Nobody would have expected such a sweet victory for Bin. He had shown some magical touches occasionally during the last few meetings, but was never consistent enough. Critics had ruled him out of the title race this month, but he made them swallow their words not just by claiming the August Mahjong Title, but winning it in style. Jinrui once again proved himself as the self-touch king, executing his favourite self-touch moves to near perfection, but nevertheless could only manage a distant 2nd place. Fans-favourite Junda was 3rd, just behind Jinrui. Dihua endured a tough afternoon, and looks out of sort at times. Bin was never the favourite, but he showed enough determination, and of course some intelligence, to put himself right on top of the table, always finishing before others could. This victory should give him a morale boaster before the September Mahjong Title. Jinrui and Junda will have to put in more effort to stop Bin, but all eyes will be on Dihua to see if he can turn the table and claim the September Mahjong Title. But before the excitment starts in September, let us once again salute the August Mahjong Title Champion, Masterbin. For him, the euphoria starts. Can he add the September Mahjong Title to his collection, or will someone else beat him to the title? We'll see. For now, hail the champion!

Dihua suffered the heaviest defeat in recent history while masterbin enjoyed the greatest success of the day. the roses were never red for dihua as he released countless full-tai cannons and hardly able to finish his game.

After a fortnight of zero-activites, come this Saturday 25 August, we will once again witness the top 4 sides battle out for the August Mahjong Title. While Jun Da and Dihua have enjoyed success in the past month, they will have to be worried by the threat that self-touched king Jinrui and Masterbin Chen will pose to them. Defending Champion Jun Da will once again be hot favourite alongside Dihua, but come the end of the month, it will be no surprise if Jinrui or Masterbin Chen goes home with the title, and of course, the prize money.

With the outside of his boot, Gerrard sent Fernando Torres racing through on goal. The pass appeared too wide for the Spaniard to pose any real danger to the Chelsea rearguard. But the S$60million striker had other ideas. He glided into the Chelsea penalty box from the left. He showed Tal Ben-Haim just enough of the ball to make the Chelsea defender believe he had the Liverpool striker under control. He even slowed down to make the illusion complete. But a push of the ball, and a sudden burst of pace, turned things dramatically. Left with Petr Cech to beat, after Ben Haim was caught out, Torres placed the ball into the corner of the net to sent Anfield into delirium!

But all was undone when Rob Styles awarded Chelsea an invisible penalty later on in the match. Referees' chief Keith Hackett has confirmed Rob Styles will not take charge of a match next weekend after his performance in the game between Liverpool and Chelsea at Anfield on Sunday. On Styles, Hackett added: 'I spoke to Rob this morning and obviously he is extremely disappointed with the decision and admitted he got it wrong. I have left a message with Rafael Benitez to apologise. 'Having looked at a video and seen a better angle and a better view, clearly he (Styles) now recognises that he got it wrong and he's deeply apologetic for that. I think, in fact, he too will be making contact with Liverpool in order to offer his apologies.'
