Singapore vs Thailand
This is a long overdue post. Now then got time to blog about it. I went to the Singapore vs Thailand AFC Final at the National Stadium. I was there with Robin and my father. It is probably the last few times that we can be inside the stadium before it gets torn down in the middle of the year to make way for the New Kallang Sports Hub. Its quite odd that they tear down a 55,000 seat stadium and built another stadium of the same capacity! I think it would be better if they could at least increase the seating capacity by 5000 or 10000.
Anyway, back to the game. We reached the carpark at about 7.30pm so it was quite difficult trying to find a parking space as the tickets for the match were sold out. Finally managed to find a parking lot at about 7.45pm and managed to get a seat in the stadium before the match started. Below is the view that we got from our seat.
The match was full of drama from start to finish.....In the first half, the thais were falling down and rolling on the field with every slight tackle.Either they were "ah Kuas" or good actors loh.....Then in the second half, when the referee awarded a penalty to Singapore, the Thais protested the decision by leaving the field for a good 15 minutes.....
Below is the video of the celebrations after Singapore scored the penalty....
