Happy days ahead for England soccer.





Today, the news that England has beaten Croatia 5 – 1, and qualified for the World Cup finals, in South Africa pleases me, greatly. I have been an ardent England fan always, and had felt disappointment, for their lackluster performance, given out in the previous years. The Italian coach Fabio Capello seems to have eliminated all that. Thank you, Mr Capello. And also my thanks and appreciation to the FA of England, to have, brilliantly, chosen him to bring England out of the doldrums.

I have a soft spot for England always. Perhaps, it had gradually developed, as a result of me being brought up through an English medium school, and my deep liking for English novels and magazines during my younger years. This has been further fortified by the fact that my elder brother has settled in England, and the feeling of connection between England and me.

However, do not misunderstand me for a minute. I am, and always will be, a permanent fan of my Malaysian Football team! Many a times, have I gone heartbroken, whenever Malaysia lost to other teams, and to much lesser known teams at that, like Vietnam, Laos, etc. Currently, the team seems to be performing better under new coach, Rajagopal, losing only narrowly to stronger and much favoured teams, like Saudi Arabia, Jordan. And who could forget how determinedly they played against Manchester United, but lost!

Well, let’s see how it goes in the Sea (South East Asia) Games. Malaysia becoming the soccer champion in the Sea Games will, indeed, please me significantly!

And England winning the world cop….Wow!
