Live Football Match, Steam!!


Just came back from my first ever live football match from Stadium Darul Aman, Kedah vs Sarawak. Although normally I only watch European football, but i still couldn't resist the temptation to watch a live football match in a crowded stadium when my friends asked me, even it's just Liga Super Malaysia.


To be honest, i don't know anything about Liga Super Malaysia because the broadcast matches from tv is so boring. The players look so lousy compare to players from other continents. But it's totally different thing when you watch it live from stadium. The atmosphere there was so amazing. The stadium was full of supporters. You can see hijau kuning (Kedah team colour) all over the stadium. Everyone was so high and crazy. They kept singing, shouting, waving flags. And the nobat and drum's beat never stop from the start toward the end of the match, "Pom pom! pom pom pom! Pom pom pom pom! KEDAH", very high, very steam, very "song"!!


Kedah deserved to win this match because they dominate the match for most of the time (sorry to Sarawak supporters. No hard feeling, just my opinion). Kedah players were better on the ball and their movements were good. But it was Sarawak who scored the first goal by a screamer outside the penalty area. But Kedah hit them back immediately after just a minute to equalise. And they managed to score two more goals to make it 3-1 in the first half. And they scored one more in the second half to make it 4-1. The score remained until i left the stadium at 85 minutes to avoid traffic jam. I think Sarawak was under a lot of pressure because they kept making silly mistakes, especially the defence. And they have no one to blame for their lost except themselves.


The linesman were under a lot of pressure too. Because every time when the offside flag was up against Kedah, the supporters would boo them, shouting and swearing at them. And some bastards even throw bottles, paper cups, ice cube, wrapping paper at them. Hey, behave like a civilized human being, k? Linesman know what they're doing, they r professional. Even if you don't agree with their decision, you have to control yourself and show them some respect. The action of booing, swearing and throwing thing will not change the decision. It just shows how barbaric and uncivilized you are.


Another thing i don't like is the smoke and smell of cigarette. I suggest that the government to ban cigarette in stadium because it's public area. Everyone goes there to enjoy exciting games, not to inhale some poisonous gasses into their lung. If I'm not mistaken, many of euro countries have already done that. So, i hope that our country can do that too.


For those who never watch live football match in stadium, my advice to you: It's a thing you must try before you die! Even if you are not a football fan, it'll still be an unforgettable experience. I don't know how to explain because of my poor English, but really, you must try it!! But for girls, if you want to do that, make sure you got males company. Because there are animal that never seen a girls before. They will start howling when girls appear, especially the young one ( that's my personal experience just now when i was trying to find seat in the stadium). So girls, get some bodyguards, and if possible, buy the VIP seat although it's more expensive (because the spectators in VIP are more educated. So it's safer to sit there).


Lastly, a suggestion for those who want to commit suicide but don't have the courage to do it yourself: Get yourself a ticket to a big match. When a home team player makes mistake, just swear at him: "Bodoh kah hang!! Macam ni pun mistake! Macam 猪(in Malay) lar!! 猪(in Malay)!!This, i guarantee you, the next thing you know, you're already in heaven!!
