Liverpool 5, Singapore 0

Last night I went to see the Liverpool versus Singapore soccer game. Liverpool, from the Premiere League is one of the top teams for those of you who are not footy fans. There are a ton of Liverpool fans here. Many of which are expats from Europe but it is also just a very popular team here in Singapore. As you can see from the photo above, it was a sea of red Liverpool jerseys.

I was pretty excited for the atmosphere of being at a Premiership game. Unfortunately, it didn't really carry over into Singapore. There was a bit of cheering but there were many times when it was just really quiet. It was also really interesting because instead of typical chants and cheers they tend to sing to support Liverpool.

The first half of the game was pretty good to watch. Liverpool obviously dominated Singapore but the defense from Singapore was pretty great. They held off Liverpool from scoring until the extra minute of play. The second half got a little crazier as you can see from the score.

It was fun to go to a live sporting event. And, I met a few new people, friends of friends, and we laughed a lot so that was well worth it.
