WooHoo!!! ..... Eyes were Feasted to some football of international class...hehe...

haha...well..yesterday i was out wif my secondary school friends to watch the singapore v australia international friendly...it was the last match to be held at the National Stadium before it closes down.....hmm...there were a total of four of us...me,kenny,glenn n his friend kenneth...haha...me,glenn n kenneth met at batok mrt station den proceeded to plaza sing n had lunch there....den we were supposed to meet kenny there as well..but he juz finished his rugby match...so we told him to meet us at the stadium...when we were there...glenn n kenneth went into the stadium to reserve the seats first...den i was outside waiting for kenny...waited for quite a while...he finally came..n we entered the stadium...we were juz in time for the Singapore ex-internationals V Malaysia ex-internationals match..haha..it was played at a very slow tempo...haha...cant expect much from them...they are well into their 40s n 50s...haha..but we saw
glimpses of what they could do back in their hey days....haha...esp V. Sundramoorthy.....he received the ball just outside the penalty box n lobbed the ball over the malaysian goalkeeper...haha..woah...he's still got it...haha...eventually the match ended 1-1 with malaysia equalizing through a penalty....haha...
Next we were preparing for the big one...the one we all came to watch...Singapore V Australia...the australian fans were veri passionate i must say....they were cheering for their team even before they came out to warm up...haha...n when they did...it attracted loud cheers from the entire stadium...n the same goes for our National Team...but from our view..which was pretty good...we could see the obvious difference in size...mark schwarzer was like a giant as compared to lionel lewis....omg..hes damn tall...head almost touch the top of the goalpost...haha.....soon the teams got kitted out..n started to walk out onto the pitch....after both teams finished singing their respective national anthems...the match was about to commence but not before hearing the kallang roar!!haha...the match then started impromptu...haha... the early exchanges were quite close with australia threatening the singapore goal right from the start..hehe....they were very fast..and they were playing one-touch football sometimes....showing their international class...haha..but surprisingly, Singapore soon took charge and they were the ones who were attacking....with the Australians defending for most of the 1st half...Indra Sahdan came the closest to beating schwarzer...and he did so...with Schwarzer beaten...but the ball juz hit the top post n went out...it takes some skill to beat a premiership goalkeeper...n with a team like Australia boasting quite a number of Premiership players...it is even more difficult... Viduka also threatened as well... then in the second half.....it Was Australia's show...they began to attack the singapore goal...n it was clear from the outset that it was nvr going to be a draw... Viduka score the first goal with a textbook header which beat lionel lewis...then for the second goal...my favourite Australian player..Harry Kewell..he came off the bench to score the second goal...for that goal he juz went to the edge of the penalty box n slotted home without even looking at the goal...HAA...the confidence of a premiership player...hahaha...den for the third goal....it was truly...world class...kewell was facing a singapore defender..the next thing we saw...he chipped the ball over the player...on his left...n he then ran past the defender on his right...n cross the ball for viduka to head home...woah...hahaha..wad a skillful assist...haha...in the end..it ended Singapore 0- 3 Australia....haha.then we stayed behind to watch the closing ceremony of the national stadium which was quite sad ..because it will b torn down after that...to make way for a Sports Hub...then there were fire works...haha..a grand ending for the national stadium... :)
