i decided to post an entry before i proceed doing my projects.
im sure those of u who were at the National Stadium last night still can't believe it that we lost to Vietnam, right? it's amazing how they, the Vietnamese, manage to score a goal with only one attempt. while the S'porean boys struggle to find one. i was sitting at the Gallery stand watching how our boys fail miserably to concede a goal. i was shouting here and there when i watched the ball was saved on the line. damn, did u guys watch that? we had a few chances but there's no finishing.
i heard the guy behind me saying, "Goal post ader hantu!" haha. it's like there's someone guarding Vietnam goal post which makes the ball bounce back. but let's not be superstitious. we just lack of luck, thats all cause we really conquer the game. im sure we, S'poreans, are not sore loser but we just can't accept the fact that we lost. why? because we nvr lost before. for 2 consecutive times, we were the winners of this cup. for each time we were at the stadium, we only saw glory. back in 2004, we defeated Myanmmar in the Semis and head on to win the cup by beating Indonesia. then in 2006, we kick Malaysia out of the Semis to be in the Final (i was closing my eyes during the penalty shot. hahaha!) then we won against Thailand.
see, it's not easy for us to face the defeat yesterday at the Stadium, our Home ground. with the continuously but*h, middle finger pointing out to the Vietnamese, trying to challenge which fans is better, it has all ended. we lost, but it's ok. there's more to come in 2010 especially with our new stadium ready(im soo looking forward to the new stadium!)
football is where the world unites, football is where a country become united.
Even our President, Mr S R Nathan thinks the same way.
