Rivals in the field, but in life, it's the most awaited arrival.

Yesterday was the most awaited day by many since two major teams hit the field and at last, we got to know who walked away with a victory smile and who walked away with a brave smile even though they have been defeated by their opponent. Football is no longer considered as a compulsory only for boys but it is now known as a unisexual game which builds with passion and interest to learn. It also connects many people as enemies or even as all-time supporters.

The fun part about football would be the ability for it to enable a person to express their deepest anger and sincerity. Well, my friend is a MU fan while I’m the Blues. Yesterday’s game was highlighted on my friend’s wall and with that, I kindly requested my friend to send the link so that I can view the game through online. Once, I mentioned the word “The Blues” angry emojis popped out on the chat box (next time I know how to make my friend angry 😁 ). It was the first time I saw that popping and the first thing which came to my mind was ‘interesting’ because I didn’t know until now that football is something serious to my friend and of course it’s sometimes good to have an opposite from me. Some tend to change team consistently instead of sticking to one even though when the team wins or loses. However, when you stick to one then you just claimed your place in the supporters chart because supporters are one of the consistent motivators which keep the players going.

The beauty of connecting with different people is also displayed through football whereby when there’s a big screen in the Mamak shop or roadside stalls all of us will be gathering there to engage in an exclusive discussion as well as commotion. This annual thing just puts that workload and busy schedule at the back of our mind temporarily. All attention will be diverted here and all eyes will only be on the ball. At the end of the game, life will be equivalent to a ball game where when you are reaching the goal post someone will come and push you. You will fall and hurt yourself badly and with that, you will be carried away on a stretcher. No cries, but the urge to stand and fight back will take over. Eventually, you will wake up in the morning with an hour of sleep thinking about all of these and enter the office feeling re-energized.

Involving oneself in football too is considered as a platform to release the day’s stress because I think when we talk about work everyone will have their equal share of a need to turn someone into their punching bag. Of course, no one wants to be gruesomely treated once the stress release button is accidentally turned on. It comes without a warning and bashes you up till you will never feel like talking to a “TURNED ON” person. So, with that plus point football is also being chosen by females as a way to avoid having a fierce lioness at home.  Besides that, football is also considered as a mind challenging game whereby practicing the techniques or moves to shoot an accurate goal can be practiced in real life too. The involvement of critical thinking is a complex theory and when that complexity gets intact with our mind the reflex will be outstanding.

Therefore, due to this good credits do not force yourself into football and at the same time for those who are passionate especially girls do not step back from learning the gist. For those who know how to play it’s a bonus but do not make use of it at all time since intellect should not be governed by a game or sport but at the same time do not allow an entire book to discourage you from playing. Balance everything and support all games mutually because each will have their own specialty. However, it cannot be denied that football will always remain close to the heart because even though we are separated geographically football overcomes all boundaries; it will always be the most awaited arrival.

In the name of FOOTBALL!
