I managed to get into
TM FA Cup 2009 Final Match“.. at National Stadium Bukit Jalil..via LRT.. hehee

together my friends and many more kelantanese… hehe

at first was kinda bit afraid to wear red all the way to the stadium .. as were going to use public transport..

started from LRT Sentul .. buying a round-trip ticket .. costing about RM 2.80×2 (else would have to que again to get back later..)
kelantan-fa
.. then while waiting for the LRT to arrived.. seem a lot people wearing red jersey.. (with title “Kelab Penyokong Kelantan” and “Kijang” )..


lrt-start

wah.. get up into the LRT.. fully packed.. and pickup some more people from next station.. hardly seen any yellowish team yet..
in-lrt
ehehhe.. time is about 5.30pm already.. wherever/whoever doesn’t matter anymore.. when everyone seem to talk with “bahase Kelate” ,
now a bit felling like while at home town.. hehehe..

right-after-getting-off-lrt
arrived at Bukit Jalil LRT station around 5.45pm.. get off the train.. a sea of people “Red jersey”.. applauding the crowd with loud clap..

2. what is in that plastic ? “baju ke ?”
– “owh..ya. baju shj”.he took a glance then let me pass.

3. pass through.. one person at one time for one spinning door…

one-by-one-spinning-gate

passed.. and joined the other ‘inmates’.. hhehehe..
after-check-in

.. time to change the jersey.. haven’t found time to get to toilet.. asked around how to change ..
“ala.. tukar je kat sini.. sama2 kita je..”…within less 2 minute.. changed…
becoming-red
hehe.. now becoming red.

then.. let’s go in.. which gate to be ah? let try one of those..
gate-2g
get in.. wah..”this one is behind the goal.. no good.. let’s go to next gate. get the further most to the middle field for better view “..
… get out.. and get in through “Gate 2″.. and not much more space left… “took the one near to the stair..”hehe.. not too high.. not too low.”
red-shirt-lineup
then we wait.. some sort of “ombak manusia”.. waving again and again.. then people starting to coming in..
taking-place
… suddenly saw two familiar face.. my high-school classmate since “PMR 1997″.. long lost friend.. ~ 12 years..~
joined him.. and talk a lil bit.. exchange business card.. and back to my seat again.. hehehe..

–~~~~~~~~~~~~–

.. around 7.30pm.. light started to turn on.. because of crowd cheering.. feel so thirsty..
planned a mission to get out alone and back in again with some sort of drink for the five (5) of us.. hehehe..

went out..

1. first stall :
“air dah abis dik.. tengah nk bancuh.. gula pulak takde.. sori..”
end up buying a pack of “keropok” instead..

2. second stall :
“air ada lagi..tapi plastik ngan cup da abis.. takleh nk isi.. sori dik..”

3. third stall :
“da abis dik.. ais pon tak de dah nie.. ”

4. fourth stall :
“.. way too long to que-up .. with not much drinking water left..”
stall
5. fifth stall :
“look like new opening.. with bunch of drinking-water in cup ready to sell.. ”
one customer asked “brape satu dik?”.. “dua ringgit bang..”.. “okaylah.. amik satu.”
another two customer came.. “took two cup”.. “dua ringgit satu..??”.. “mahal tesh..”..
and somehow they pay only “RM 2″ for two cups and get away with that..
hmm.. my turn..

“brape satu?”.. “dua ringgit,bang.”..”bagi tiga ..dik, dua sirap.. satu asam boi..”..”plastic ade tak..nanti takleh nak bwk..”..”ade..bang..kejap”. then wrapped up.. and pay RM 6..

after a while..peep into the field via some sort of opening from the stall…( if anything interesting development happening..)

null..

–~~~~~~~~~~~~–

took a glance at my handphone.. tried to make a phone call to someone.. as expected..
“Network busy..” unable to proceed.. bla..bla.. and one time got “No network access.” … yeah.. kinda crappy.. disconnected again..
how da heck is telco company (in my case.. Maxis.)..promised coverage.. which happened to be not really .. up to the standard..
dunno if I was asking too much.. but after I checked with one of my friend that are using Celcom.. the line is not that bad ..
at that same venue.. he even managed to call and talked to his mom at kelantan over his celcom handphone number …
but for me.. is completely “Out of service”.. SMS hardly can send out.. leave alone the receiving part..
only after the event is over.. and moved to other place..
then only start receiving many sms and ..
expecting to upload image to blog at that moment via maxis wap+mms ??
do not even dream.. hahahahaa..

well.. to talk about this.. the event is scheduled far earlier.. and the crowd is expected.. and yet.. Maxis do not prepare anything ?
is it fair to have all of maxis user to be disconnected at the such event ? (now .. I really feel it embarrassing and disappointing service by maxis..
This is what make our service so different compared to U.S..
I am referring to Obama first inaugural speech as U.S President (event).. few month back..
where ..
their TELCOs..
making the necessary preparation..
with much more additional mobile transmitter deployed near to the expected crowded area and all other minimal usage request..
at least to maintain the connectivity…

but here.. (answer it yourself..)

continue wandering around the stall..
getting to some more stall ahead.. saw male prayer room sign-board… “let’s perform maghrib prayer.. ”
male-prayer-room
went into ablution room.. got many people.. have to wait to get in.. performed ablution at the sink instead..
of course have to put down my 3 cup of waters .. and one plastic of “keropok”..
then.. about to enter prayer room.. i think is over-crowded already..
Hmm..let’s wait outside first..get out from prayer room.. turn around.. “wah.. sini pun boleh..”..
let-perform-solat

then performed solat with other “jemaah..” .. behind the prayer room.. there is a big open space..
right in front of guard.. not many people walking through.. some using the flag..paper.. to temporarily “alas tempat sujud”..
no one said anything .. and performed solat like normal ..after “salam”..shake hand with the one next to me.. and next crowd continue at our place.. and continues..

getting in again is a bit difficult.. crowd is now fully utilizing the stair already.. haiya..
cheer-crowd

selangor-fans
after a while only managed to get to my seat again.. and the rest of it is history.. hehehe..

watch the highlight from the match in youtube video below :
(can’t comment much.. as not that expert in this field.. also not that keen to follow before this..)

–~~~~~~~~~~~~–

first half.. 0-0 ..

while the match still on the field..

until the .. match end .. still 0-0..

then starting extra time .. 30minute..

first goal..(1-0).. over-excited//.. jumping up like mad.. and all..
first-goal-1-0

the cracker is everywhere.. hahaha..
gomo-kelate-gomo
feel like a long-awaited goal.. hehe..

But…. that joy did not last long..

less than 5minute i think..
counter-back goal from selangor.. 1-1
a few more try to win..
game a bit tensed..

what da heck is the “referee” is doing??

crowd start chanting…”ref gilo”.. quite a few time..

.. time’s up.. 1-1..

penalties.. on my side.. already silent.. can’t be confident anymore.. with the Selangor team that having
far more experience with “Penalty”.. hardly think that can win though..

while waiting for penalties shoot out..
FRU start gathering in front of our spot.. hahaha..
fru-guarding-our-spot

–~~~~~~~~~~~~–

after a while.. no incident.. i think they received “stand-down” order.. and changed to this formation..
fru-stand-down

true enough.. first “Kelantan”..shoot .. bounce off by the “palang”..hahaa..
2nd .. kick.. go in..
3rd kick.. way out of range.. crap.. we’re going off.. let’s go.

.. crowd start moving out and so we are..

while moving out..

saw the 4th kick.. also out of range.. hahahaha…(may be have to relocate the goal post to let it go in..)

Final penalty result (1-4) .. “Selangor wins..”

moving out with the crowd and get into LRT again.. going back to Sentul LRT station again..
in there got many kelantan supporter.. as well as Selangor’s..

some put nice joke..
while we are in the LRT cabin packed with full of people from both side.. (selangor & kelantan)

i think someone is talking over to the phone with a friend … and loudly say..
“ya.. ya.. menang dah ..empat kosong.. hahhaha..” (in kelantan slang.) ~ .. ‘hoo la.. meney .. meney pat kosong..’
and added..
‘wat wat tanyo la pulok.. hok tahu blako doh key..’
… somemore..
‘ aku duk dlm kapa terbe nei.. nok kelik doh la..’
..spontaneously making all of us laugh out loud..
menang-la-empat-kosong
who said we can’t laugh even if we lost ?

and few other jokes.. hehehe..
.. “naik..naik..”.. mimicking the one for the bus conductor…

.. “sori bang da penuh..” to the rapidkl guard. at one of the station..

.. “ok..da sampai tanah merah..buleh turun doh ”
.. some comment. .. “kawe raso sek2 kito kalo main goal rugby buleh meney kot. sepak tinggi2 sapa ke atas belako tush..”

journey ends..then only realized can’t talk with proper voice anymore.. hahahaa..

p/s : the real experience at the field itself.. is not comparable to what been done remotely or watched at home.. hehehe 8-)
