Quite an eventful day today.
I'M GOING TO USE CODES FOR THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPH.
Team A had a friendly match against Team B
Team A lost 7-1
During the last 15 minutes, Mr. X, who was the player-manager of Team A scolded Mr Y who was playing as a defender for Team A by saying "You don't know how to play ah?Use your brains!" or something along those lines.
Then Mr. Y said ''I know how to play ok!'' And a spewed a mouthful of vulgarities towards Mr. X. And then he totally walked off the pitch.
Mr. X then said "Ya la players like you with no bloody sportsmanship!"
Mr. Y then turned around and charged back towards Mr.Y like an angry bull and started getting into Mr. X's face and shouting his head off. Mr Y's girlfriend then tries to get him away and so do other players.
At this point Team B have already gotten out their popcorn and nachos and were sitting down enjoying the show.
Mr. Y then walks off again only to be instigated by Mr. X (again) and now he ran all the way across the field and ALMOST punched him but decided to shout in his face again.
Then Mr Y finally manages to leave the pitch without killing anyone and play goes on.
I'm a bit split on who's right and who's wrong here.
Mr X DOES have a tendency to push things across the limit with the words he uses but that does NOT give Mr. Y any reason to barge off the field and say whatever he said. Mr. X is nearly twice his age.
I was feeling very embarrased about the whole issue since I was with Team A. Because of this unsportsmanlike and barbaric behaviour, we probably looked like a bunch of indian mamak monkeys to Team B. And the fact that we lost so badly probably strengthened this horrible misconception. This sort of childish and inappropriate behavior i hate to see. It was truly very embarrasing.
Moving on to a lighter note...
GLASGOW RANGERS 0-4 LIVERPOOL
Torres opened the scoring from close range by following up a rebound from a very powerful shot by Plessis. Then in the second half Ngog squeezed one in from a tight angle past the goalie. A stroke of class. Benayoun then gave us the third and Alonso converted the spot kick to give us that magnificent score line. EPL next season? Hmmm....
O'neill admits that Barry might be able to secure a move to Liverpool. I guess that's good.
Shevchenko came on as a substitute against Lokomotiv Moscow in the pre-season Railways Cup on Friday but missed the decisive penalty as Chelsea were beaten in a shootout. BUT THEY BEAT AC MILAN 5-0 IN A PRE-SEASON FRIENDLY!!!Frankie Lampard scored the opener and 4 goals followed from a very sharp Anelka. Kaka has been forced to rethink his future
Manchester United won Espanyol 1-0 and i think Arsenal lost their game whoever it was against. But Adebayor provided a solitary goal against Real Madrid for the Emirates Cup. They lost their first game to Juventus 1-0 but Arsenal's victory saw them finish third in the final Emirates Cup table, with Hamburg - now managed by former Tottenham boss Martin Jol - securing the trophy after they beat Juventus 3-0 in the day's other match.
To Joshua,
All i will say is:
I TOLD YOU SO
