18th July, 5.30 p.m. malaysia versus manchester united were held at Stadium Bukit Jalil. I wouldn’t be able to watch the match at the stadium but thankfully i watched it at stadium astro. channel 811. so at 5.30 i turned on the television and see whats what. It was an exiting match. at the first 10 minutes rooney scored one goal and it was not a surprise seeing one of Europe most powerful team scored against malaysia. and then nani scored a beautiful goal assist by rooney somewhere around 20 minutes. at that point i thought its gonna be like the 2001 match. but then a glimmer of hope too save the national team from a complete and utter failure, Amri Yahya scored a fantastic goal in the middle of the field. that goal really gives the moral boost that malaysia needed. the whistle blows shortly afterward. when the second half began, i really think that malaysia wont lose 10 – 0 like everyone said. Then, i jumped out of my seat when Amri Yahya took advantage over the mistake that Manu goalkeeper(Ben Foster) made and scored the second goal. That was an amazing feeling seeing a Malaysian player scored two goals against manchester united. around the 80th minute, micheal owen came in to replace rooney. i thought that i have nothing to worry about because i thought micheal owen is not as fast, agile, and powerful as rooney. but i was sadly mistaken when he scored the winning goal at the 85th minute. i was a little bit frustrated thinking that we could have at least draw against manchester united. well it was a bloody hell better than 6-0.
that is the most exciting thing i can think of about that day. other than me washing clothes and eating and sleeping and taking a shower… you wouldn’t want to know about that.. or would you~~
KTHXBAI
