history repeats.

ASEAN Cup Final 1st leg. UEFA Champion League Second Round 1st leg.

controversial penalty. controversial free kick.

if you watch soccer or read the papers that highlighted the "walk-off" incident that happened in Singapore a few weeks ago, you may read it later on.

Lille vs Manu. left with around 7mins and Giggs scored a controversial free kick.
Goal.
Lille players attempted to walk off the pitch upon kick off. Luckily they didn't walk off the pitch for more than a minute, or no more than half a minute; but still this shows the lack of sportsmanship in them. Where is the beautiful game which i used to watch? You know i admire those fair plays by players who played the right way. That is beautiful.

Like how many time can you see plays like Di Canio stopping game play even though he had the advantage to score when the keeper fell injured? That's true sportsmanship i tell you. Indeed great. Respect and kudos to him.

And football is turning into an ugly state. Diving, fighting, match-fixing, fans killed, walking off pitch and even items like steel rod being thrown down from the stands. What a mess! Oh well, lets hope that it will get better. And that the world will get better. World Peace! =)
