for some time ive pondered...
do i still?
just about hours ago,
ive concluded i still am.
im still in love.
with football that is...
soccer.
bolasepak.
足球
fútbol
calcio
futebol
whatever you call it, i still
love it unconditionally.
im saying this because, i was thinking to myself
about a week back.
i was reading a match report on ESPNsoccernet
regarding the MANu vs liverpool match.
for those of you who were living under a rock
for the past month, MANu lost.
i was feeling very lost.
part of me wants to feel sad knowing my favourite
football club had just lost to their
fiercest rivals.
part of me just couldnt be bothered since
football just seemed soooo yesterday.
so, i was left pondering.
until last night.
it was called the clash of the titans.
MANU vs chelsea.
i was watching from one of the tables
at the familiar coffeeshop near my house.
and it was then i got my answer.
my hard raced everytime lampard took a corner.
i sighed everytime ferdinand cleared the ball.
i grew furious at how helpless van der sar is becoming
at corner kicks.
yet he became my hero when he saved a shot from joe cole.
it was like i fell in love when ronaldo came on.
but a break up when kalou scored the equaliser.
though the match ended a draw, i was quite happy.
football is not just a game.
it is the game.
floorball aside ofcourse.
within 90 minutes, i went through an emotional
roler coaster enough to last a lifetime.
and now i understand why im soo in love with it.
just like alex ferguson once said,
'football, bloddy hell.'
anywayz...
heres some floorball updates...
my team is 2nd in the league with one match left.
a convincing win next weekend
will put us in pole position for promotion
to division one next year.
in other news, pol-ite
is in 2 weeks time.
hmmm...
nites yo...
:)
