Yea early this morning I woke up to catch the match b/w Real Madrid and Lazio. Real needed at least a draw to qualify for the knock-out stages.
I made an effort to wake up at 3 am, only to be bored back to sleep by the pre-match debate. Felt hungry and got some corn flakes. My urge to always try something new with my food had prompted me to get a few spoonfuls of cream cheese as a condiment to the corn flakes. Not bad...
I've been a RM supporter since the end of the 2002 World Cup. Was into Brazil and Ronaldo was their striker. They won the World Cup ma. Right after that he transferred to RM ma... Support RM until now loh, and it's not coz of Ronaldo anymore.
I've seen a trend of boring football in English football. They are so overly defensive and does a lot of back-passing. It's not good for the game. The game is slow and... Well, boring.
Italian football, on the other hand, is ok la. Long shots and tricks. But the teams very cha sui.
I like spanish (club) football is coz it's versatile. They have all kind of stuff in their game. They can go defensive and in the next moment attack in a swift motion. The game is never boring as action is everywhere.
This morning's game. 13 minutes into the game and RM took the lead. Not bad huh? 2 minutes later Raul added another goal. Wow I'm gonna expect more goals in the match. 38 minutes into the game and Robinho added another goal. Wow... 3-0 by half time? They gon tapao Lazio...
The 2nd half is a whole new story. Everything slowed down. No more attacks. Defend also not that good. As soon as the time hit 50 minutes I switched channels liao. SIEN. Watch Deadliest Catch. A boat sank and they had to rescue the ship. Only one was rescued. The rest perished...
Back to the match and it was still boring. RM even conceed a goal without scoring one for themselves... I switched b/w channels until the game ended. 3-1 final score. Damn should've went to bed after half time.
You get wut I'm tryin to say? Football (soccer) is dying... I dunno who taught them but they seem to like to defend after getting a comfortable lead. Damn... Ppl pay to see them play football, not sookchun and defend la... The english is famous for defending after a one goal lead, which proved to be a dangerous strategy. I guess the pattern spread throughout the football world...
So guys, watch American Football, it's fast-paced, highly organised, and very entertaining. Minus the frequent-as-shiat ads in the match.
P/s: Dudes, do the world a favour. The polar bears are drowning and sea levels are getting higher and higher. The world is in danger. Help reduce the effects of global warming. Efforts should not be driven by profits. It should be for the sake of our lives and the future generations.
Sign the petition at http://www.climateprotect.org/standwithal please. Mr Al Gore is going to the UN Climate conference at Bali tomorrow to present the petition to the UN delegates and deliver the message about global warming. Let's hope that this will make them realise how serious global warming is and how many people is affected by it. Help the World. Do something about it.
