Artificial Field and Imports

So the Malaysian football team lost to Singapore just now. Yet, I don't really feel bad. Of course, we've played better games prior to this, but yet a 5-3 lost is not something I'd feel devastated for several reasons.

Firstly, our team consist of pure, original, born-and-bred-Malaysian. Singapore's players on the other hand just look...foreign. Well, they, like many other "Singaporean athletes", are imports or shall I say foreigners with Singaporean citizenship. Which makes our team, a better team than theirs.

Secondly, I feel it was acceptable to lose since our players were not used to play in an artificial field, where the ball speed is faster and slippery. After all, our Malaysian team is used to play in real grass field. So, to the Malaysian football team, let's show what real football is when the Singaporean team play on our real grass field this coming Thursday.

Malaysia Boleh!
