Malaysia boleh!

It's been quite a while since the last time that I saw your pretty face. Erh, since the last time I posted an entry about football in my blog. Kalau dulu, rase macam selalu je tulis pasal bola. Sekarang je rase macam jarang. But suddenly I feel like wanna cakap pasal bola.

First of all, I was very disappointed with United' lost against Villa, considering the fact that Villa failed to win against us since more than 20 years at Old Trafford. Suprisingly, most of the big guns failed to win this weekend.

Chelsea pun seri je, Liverpool kalah. Di Itali, Milan kalah di tempat sendiri, Internazionale seri, Juve ngan Fiorentina pun kalah.

Sekarang Sukan Sea sedang berlangsung di Laos. Aku takde lah follow sangat sukan Sea ni, tapi aku baca paper dan ikut perkembangan Malaysia dalam apa saja games, let it be Olympic, Commanwel or Sea games.

Aku ingat lagi, masa aku form 1 dulu Malaysia jadi tuan rumah. Masa tu Malaysia juara keseluruhan, dapat 110 emas kot. Target 80 je. Masa 1989 pun sama, Malaysia juara di tempat sendiri. Biasanya tuan rumah akan jadi juara, unless tuan rumah tu memang ayam macam Laos.

2003 Vietnam jadi juara di tempat sendiri, macam Thailand di Korat dulu. Kalau bukan tuan rumah, biasanya Thailand lah yang akan jadi juara.

2001, masa sukan Sea tu aku ikut family gi KL. Mase tu lah tragedi Sept 11. Tapi sayang Malaysia kalah lawan Thailand dalam final sebab mistake Kamarulzaman Hassan, keeper Malaysia dan Pulau Pinang masa tu. Lepas tu, Malaysia dah tak pernah layak ke final.

And the last time we won a men' football gold medal in Sea games was back in 1989 too. Jadi sama2 kite doakan agar Malaysia menang semifinal lawan Laos esok (Isnin malam, tengok kat tv2!).

For sure, it won't be an easy match as i'm pretty sure that like us, people in Laos (is it Laosian or what, any idea anyone?) are football fan, like in most of South East Asian countries. That stadium will be packed with them, as there won't be many Malaysian in Laos, only those athletes and that very few Malaysians who work there.

Satu lagi, biasenye ref pun akan bias ke tuan rumah. Hope everything will be on our way!
