3 weekend blows

1 always try to console others, but what if there are 3 events took place gave a national blow.


Axiata Cup
As defending champions, Malaysia ended up in 4th position this season. They lost to Indonesia in semifinals and lost in aggregate to Asia selection for 3rd placing. Chong Wei Feng, just couldn't deliver at the right time. The ladies singles is just going into ashes.

Squash
Nicol David just short of World Championship team title for her completion of grand slams. Being 3rd placing for past 3 consecutive editions, our team was aiming to go better by winning the title. Again, we became bridesmaid to England by loosing 2-1 to them in finals. Anyway, it's still better than 3rd placing.

Football
This is the worst. Though Malaysia qualified by a fluke, I thought they would patch up their mistakes. Nevertheless, against Vietnam, they show that they are still school boys. We got penalty during the 1st half, but our lanky defense, made Vietnam to equalize. During 2nd half, there were many attacks, and finally Vietnam broke the lock to score their 2nd goal in front of our home crowd. I didn't see the ball going towards the opponents goal post. That shows how bad is our attack. The defense were soft which made the midfielders to play double role.

To make it worse, our fans became hooligans and started to attach the Vietnamese fans, which ended in bloodshed. Our sports minister, KJ, humbly apologize to the Vietnamese. We have 3rd class management, facilities, now we have also 3rd class mentality
