Cranbury – KORABI Veterans 1-2 (0-0)
Goals: Kujtim Kaziu, Alit Jani

Cranbury, NJ – November 22, 2009 – The long overdue and well deserved win finally came and that against one of the stronger teams in the league.

The Veterans started strong and played well in the first half but failed to score with poor finishing.

Korabi continued playing well in the second half but Cranbury capitalized on a misplayed ball by the Korabi keeper to score early and take a 1-0 lead. It seemed as if this inspired Korabi as Kujtim Kaziu scored on a headder to even the score at 1-1. Alit Jani scored converting a cross from the right side to give Korabi a 2-1 lead and the win.

Musa Gjeli and Hajdar Januzi anchored the defense and thwarted the Cranbury offense to preserve the win.

Marlboro – KORABI Veterans 5-2 (3-0)
Goals: Zeqo Papraniku, Adem Klloboçishta

Marlboro, NJ – November 15, 2009 – As you have seen throughout this fall season; “…the final score is not indicative of the game as the Veterans have not been playing bad but …” shows consistency and every indication point to them moving up to the Over 50 league where they can be more competitive and still enjoy playing without the weekly losses that sometimes seem to be humiliating.

The host got on the scoreboard in the opening minutes capitalizing on a Korabi goalkeeper blunder and scored again minutes later for an early 2-0 lead and by halftime they increased their lead to 3-0 as Korabi once again were not able to capitalize on their opportunities.

The Veterans started the second half a bit stronger and scored twice through Zeqo & Adem to come within one but could not keep up with a younger Marlboro side as they also scored twice.

Old Bridge – KORABI Veterans 5-0 (3-0)

Old Bridge, NJ – November 8, 2009 – This fall season seems so frustrating and long, especially losing game after game. This Veterans team had been accustomed to winning and with injuries to key players the future does not look very promising.

The final score is not indicative of the game as the Veterans have not been playing bad but don’t seem to have any scorers with an abundance of missed scoring opportunities and poor decisions on defense.

Hazlet – KORABI Veterans 3-0 (2-0)

Hazlet, NJ – November 1, 2009 – This Veterans team seems to have lost flair, passion and self esteem expecting and accepting losses week after week and just having fun and losing is OK here and there but not week after week.

Long Branch – KORABI Veterans 8-1 (3-1)
Goals: Kujtim Kaziu

Long Branch, NJ – October 25, 2009 – The Veterans started the game well but disappeared after 10 minutes.

Korabi got on the scoreboard first with Kujtim Kaziu heading a cross into the net for a 1-0 lead in the 10th minute.
