United For The Soul

Wowww weekend ini sangat menyenangkan dan gila bagiku dan teman-temanku. Diawali dengan segala kesibukan menjelang game City vs United yang berjalan lancar, Aminnn...dan semakin asik dengan kemenangan United dan kalahnya Chelsea (Ha..ha!) Kebetulan ketika pulang, aku diantar oleh Bang Pat, Robskii, Daniel dan Nita. Sesi wawancara dan curhat(bahkan beberapa kali mobil berhenti di pinggir jalan dan komplek) pun terjadi sampai tiba di rumahku dan sepertinya kata "DIA BODOH" menjadi password malam itu hehehe bahkan aku pun tertular bodoh. Bagaimana tidak? jelas-jelas sudah di depan rumah, tetapi tidak masuk ke rumah melainkan tetap dalam mobil bang Pat yang membawa kami ke arah cibubur dan waktu sudah menunjukkan pagi sekitar jam 2. Akhirnya kami ngobrol dan tiba di McD cibubur dan seperti password malam itu "Bodoh" kami pun bodoh beramai-ramai. Kami berlima duduk bersebelah-sebelahan namun berkomunikasi dengan twitter hahaha...Nita curhat dan kami saling berbalas-balas...

Mungkin bagi sebagian orang orang selebrasi Gazza dan Scholesy sabtu kemarin sangat "gay" dan aneh. Saya tidak bisa menyalahkan orang yang berpikiran seperti itu terlebih saat tahu yang mengatakan itu adalah mereka yang bukan supporter Manchester United. Gazza memang terkenal sebagai pemain yang berhati supporter. Dia tidak segan-segan mengacuhkan teman-temannya yang "menghianati" Manchester United. Sepertinya memang Gazza terlahir sebagai United. Mental dan Loyalitasnya membuat dia kian dicintai oleh para supporter United dan mungkin dia sendiri pun tidak bisa mengukur kadar cintanya terhadap ManUnited. Di game ketat melawan City, setelah memasuki menit ke 90 tanpa gol dan dengan bayangan-bayangan lepasnya gelar juara BPL (terlebih jika Chelsea mampu menang atas Spurs) tentu jantung semua pendukung United berdebar keras dan sangat mengharapkan kemenangan atas City untuk menjaga peluang gelar juara. Demikian pula Gazza yang merasakan langsung ketat dan tegangnya per...

Sebagai pendukung Manchester United, pertandingan melawan City adalah game yang sangat penting dan ditambah dengan julukan "derby". Game kian seru mengingat betapa berkembangnya tetangga kita ini berkat kucuran dana segar dan aroma persaingan tingkat tinggi, mereka ingin 4 besar dan kita menginginkan gelar ke 19. Rivalitas di atas lapangan pun tak bisa dihindari. Dengan hampir ditiup peluit akhir dan tak ada gol yang tercipta, semua pendukung United pun harus bersiap kembali kecewa dengan hasil akhir karena United bermain baik dan hanya kurang beruntung saja tidak mendapatkan gol. Tambahan waktu 3 menit terasa sangat singkat sebelum akhirnya Paul "ginger prince" Scholes menghentak City of Manchester Stadium dengan heading sempurna yang melesat masuk menembus jala City. Tekanan berat pun terasa terlepaskan. Euforia kegembiraan pun pecah dan weekend itu menjadi weekend sempurna saat Chelsea dan Arsenal kalah dari Spurs dan Wigan. Ahh..how much i love the game :)

Since 2007, England always put their representation through semifinal and final. I remember in 2007 Milan were surrounded by england sides(although they won over those poolz 2-1). 2008, it was United who won through (another) dramatic final. With Ronnie's failure to score in penalty kick, we thought the Cup were flying to Chelsea. Until that moment when Terry slipped and VDS "magical" saves against Anelka kick and Giggs seal the final kick to make United won in Russia. 2009, United as a defending champions through to Rome. But, this time Barca won. Now in the 2010 UCL, with ManUnited defeat against Bayern there's no England sides in the semis. With Barca-Inter, Bayern-Lyon surely the weather is changing. As a ManUnited supporter, i hope United will play in Barnebau but the reality hit me one more time and it feels hurt more than the lost against Chelsea last saturday. We won, but the aggregate kill us although i have to admit that Robben's volley was beautiful. Wh...

This is how it feels like to be City, This is how it feels to be small, This is how it feels when your team wins nothing at all And that exactly how we feel when United defeated after the game versus chelsea... Drogba's goal is offside! i don't know why the ref didn't bring up the offside flag and Ji Sung should get a penalty! and that's killing us! what they're up to? we missed Wayne's there and after Carrick left the field, we are "attacked" by chelsea. Arggghhhh... can't say much but Garry expression can tell how we feel about the result...

Yup, finally a taste of defeat came over again last night. 2-1 is the score for Bayern and the Allianz Arena went wild. Trailing by 1-0 in 2nd minute from Roo's, Bayern coming from behind to nail the winner. Ribery make it 1-1 in 77th minutes and finaly Olic who had so many chances to make goal and denied by VDS, scored a late goal in 92nd minutes. Bayern's first goal was a free kick taken by Ribery and deflected by Roo. Second goal from mistake (which i said elementary mistake by Evra). Olic stole it coz Evra whom supposed to clear the ball but took a bit long and the result a goal happen. But, no need to regret it...an away goal is good coz we only had to win 1-0 in OT. Hopefully in OT, United can crush Bayern! United We Stand!

Ahahaha...pushing my body limit to the max. At first a bit scared, but seems my body already developing it selfdefence from the lack of sleep. Usually my nose will bleed, but i thanked God i don't have to go through the bleeding right now. I know, pushing is not good...i also learn have to put my ego of having my fullest. Like i did last saturday. I really want to play basketball with my friends in the afternoon but somehow my heart said "No, u have to take a rest. Remember u will have a busy weekend." -- I did listen to my heart and didn't regret it hehehe saturday (after lack of sleep in the friday nite) i have to accompany my mom go to the temple in glodok from morning till noon, and shortly after reach home and take another bath, i go to basketball to watch my friends playing and i did have some shots during their breaktime. After that, we have a meeting about the bigmatch versus chelsea and then straight go to nonbar with the lads. Reached home about 3, but can...
