THE game - football !!!

As you probably know me, I am true football fan. Really ! :-)))

I just don’t understand why so many people are getting excited about football ! The game is so boring, there are twenty two persons who are running after the ball … while spending hours watching it on the television ??? its not me ….

For me, the whole picture is changing as it comes to real games like world cup ! Then I am really excited, especially on the finals ! It is so interesting to watch professionals who are talented and very well trained doing their best to win the game and bring the glory home ! Take as an example the last World Cup, did you see the Zidan hit ??? if you did not, you just missed the history …

There is another excitement about the football for me, to watch the real game on the stadium. I compare it to the old popular Gladiators Fights at Rome. It is not very similar but the idea of show when thousands of people coming together and watching together with traditional songs, shoutings, some times hating and real hopes. The first time I had discovered this feeling when I was twenty, it was during my undergraduate university studies. One day before the exam while I was studying with my friend Felix, we have understood that there is no way we will know all the required material so Felix has told me that he has a better idea for the time spending. The idea was to travel to Askhelon and watch “MAKABI HAIFA” playing on the stadium. It did not take long to convince me to go. From that first game, I really enjoy going for the football games with my friends and it doesn’t matter who will play, I enjoy the atmosphere :-)))

Here in London I was given a present for my birthday from very lovely family, a football match ticket. I was truly excited ! wow, to watch a real game in London !

A week ago, me and Simosha went to watch the game. Apparently, she is a real fan because she knew all the names and all the history of all the players. The teams were Fulham against WEST HAM. We were on the Fulham side.

The stadium is not big, its capacity is 30,000 seats. It is located by the Thames river, at the Fulham area.

It was really nice game with a lot of action but the teams were not very good.

At some point I was confused which side I am because we were supposed to be the Fulham fans but when I have discovered that Israeli player “Yossi Ben Ayun” is playing in the WEST HAM team, I just wanted to switch … :-)))


Unfortunatelly, the game was finished as 0-0 but it was a great show !
See all the people upset going home ....
