Football has impacted me in a way no other sports has ever since i was small. Football isn't just a game that is played for the purpose of winning, but also to test your ability against the best. Since the age of 7 catching my favorite english teams mostly on the weekends on television has been somewhat of a routine as years have gone by.
The traffic condition wasn't to bad heading to the Shah Alam Stadium,as there was multiple routes to get there. Brought the cousin brother along and we totally enjoyed ourselves.
full house stadium.
The fans were up on their toes from start and cheered on both the teams. They even made your typical
wave (gesture) with sounds of excitement.
Ironically while looking for the correct door to enter we sneakingly popped in another entrance to see how the stadium looked like and to our seats at Quadrant C- Grey Zone soon after. It was called the Samsung Zone where Bloggers, Samsung Soccer School Kids & Kids from a Home sat and watched the game.
I guess for some of them, it was once in a life time experience to catch a football game live and thanks to Samsung Malaysia, they had the privilege to catch the game.
We probably had the best seating position as were sitting pitch side right behind the Chelsea Goal in the
first half.
Chelsea dominated very much of the first half and at half time it was 3-0 to Chelsea and in the second half Malaysia had more possession of the ball and defended much better.
Malaysia vs Chelsea 0-1 ( Bertrand Traore goal vs Malaysia 6′)
Malaysia v Chelsea 0-2 ( De Bruyne goal vs Malaysia 28′)
Malaysia vs Chelsea 0-3 ( Lukaku goal vs Malaysia 45′)
Malaysia vs Chelsea 0-4 ( Moses goal vs Malaysia 88′)
Malaysia vs Chelsea 1-4 ( Shas goal vs Chelsea 90+1′)
The Samsung Air ball probably kept everyone entertained as it was pushed up to one corner to another.
And as the game ended with the final score 4-1 to Chelsea i headed for the Exit and snapped a photo with "Eden Hazard"
My Camera man had to fight for angle with the huge crowd at the booth.
Had an awesome time and it was a good experience being part of the beautiful game. Thanks Samsung Malaysia & Manoah Consulting for the invites!
Here's a repost from another blog of mine since many wanted to find out more about the course made available from 95% Advertising.
Back in late April 2013, i attended the AD Unplugged 2013 workshop which featured
some of Malaysia's top Creative Directors, Art Directors &
Account Managers from Top Advertising Agencies in Malaysia.
The purpose of the work shop was directed towards Advertising Students at
Taylor's University Lakeside Campus and the main goal was to encourage and
enhance the creative side of students through a few brain storming session. In the sessions which
we took part in, we were given the task to think of a "Big Idea" and draft out a strategy to attract the
people of Malaysia from different age groups to participate in
our Blood Donation Campaign.
During the brainstorm session me and my team identified that, the main reason
Malaysians do not participate in such session would because,they are often scared
and easily traumatize after seeing their own blood being drafted out. So me and my
team drafted out a few strategy with the main purpose of relaxing blood donators
and making the surroundings more conducive when donating blood. We found
out that, people in general are very sceptical on the experiences of nurses to
in drafting out blood. The main factor was people
whom appear petite would have small veins running through their body and would
require extra amount of care and patience.On more than one occasion most nurses would prick them a few times before getting to the right vain. Pretty scary experience i would say!. We also ironed
out that it is important to keep blood donators relaxed during the time of donations,
hence we came out with a method of giving them headphones and placing a
television to take their mind of the procedure. Simple and very effective i would say!
In order to get our idea implemented we had Shaun Tay, General Manager of
TBWA to be our mentor to share his opinions and further aid us with his
past experience. As we were broken down into groups of 6 and we didn't
know who our group members were before hand, it was quite interesting to work
with a different set of people. But it was an overwhelming and educative
experience. I know i certainly benefited from it and i look forward to future and important
sessions like this. As the saying goes, some things aren't learned in the classroom
but outside instead.
Looking forward to the next workshop from 95% Advertising.
