world cup emotions
hello all.. took a day's rest to recover from yesterday's immense shock, and after watching tonight's game france vs. portugal, i decided to post. the world cup is almost over, regretably. all that remains is the 3rd-4th placing match btwn germany & portugal, and the finals btwn france & italy. i haven't experienced a world cup first hand before, and i must say it is an exhilarating experience. especially when you're rooting for a country you would call your 2nd home. when germany wins, everyone's mood improves, you feel like you're floating around for the whole of the day & the next. when germany lost yesterday, the country went silent. not so much anger, but rather from disbelief. it was a game of the highest quality despite the lack of goals till the 118th minute (sigh), extremely fairly played (especially by germany, and i'm not the only one to say this) and very entertaining. so there was really nothing to complain about. the country mood's slightly deflated, but everyone's still real proud of the team, and no one has forgotten their roles as hosts. :)
after watching tonight's game i think something must be done (and urgently too) about the dishonorable play by some players. for example cristiano ronaldo who dives with a 10-min frequency. for example certain italian players who were rolling around the pitch with minimal or no contact. this really spoils the play, and referees cannot always be right on the spot to make the right judgement. the pre-match hype around the germany-italy match wasn't about the silky skills, ingenious tactics, or solid defenses, but about the suspension of germany's top player torsten frings. about the part the italian media played, in particular. kinda unfortunate, that such stuff have to happen. :( spoils the fun abit.
yeah okay, felt gd to ramble abit abt football :P my 精神粮食 for the past mth, heh. everyone, take care, and see u all in.. 12 days!! :)
