Do you know what Super Sunday is? Well, it's actually scheduled English football on Sundays. Tonight was Liverpool v.s Chelsea. Usually big games as such are watched at places that televise the match for large crowds. The atmosphere there is spectacular. It's where people come together for one reason-to support or boo football teams.
Personally, I'd go to Hartamas Square to watch big games. The food is good, the screen is huge, and they always play the 2 team's anthem before the game. People actually sing the anthem together. It's really fun. It's amazing how football unites us. We express differnt feelings together. For example, when the team we support is at the attacking mode, adrenaline rushes due to suspens. We clap for everything( depending on which team we support) when the opposition gets yellow or red cards, when our team gets fouled, when our team manages to clear the ball, we'd all be screaming if our team almost concede goals.
The best part is when our team scores. The atmosphere is really amazing. People scream and clap in delight. They even exchange hi-fives with people from the same table and different tables. It's like when your team scores, the stranger next to you suddenly becomes your best friend. It's interesting to see how one sport can bring tonnes of people together. Tonight, Liverpool beat Chelsea 1-0. There were so many Liverpool fans compared to Chelsea fans. There will always be rivalry but in the end, we all go to watch good football.
-Peace-
