One of the things that no one should missed during FIFA World Cup is to be at mamak stall or restaurant to watch live match.
It’s ok if you don’t know the teams or the players. It’s ok if you are not a football fan.
Just the atmosphere can make you jump high up to the sky or bang your hands on the table.
When a team score, you will either hear people cheer or boo. And you yourself will automatically be part of the crowd.
That’s what makes the scene alive.
Im not a football fan but I like Brazil because of the ‘zzz’ in the the Brazil’s name and because Brazil is a good team.
For the first time since 2010 FIFA World Cup started, I watched it tonight and I watched it live.
I was there with my friends, sitting at the back. as usual I bring my wife along. I mean my camera. N im lucky because my speedlite is functioning tonight.
