Liverpool 3-0 Everton...!!!

Now let me see, this match was played on the weekend of August 30th. Yup! That's the eve of our 46th National Day Commemoration. Sad to say, I wasnt in Malaysia. Newayz, I would never forget such an important day.

Okie, back to business. As mentioned earlier, I was not in Malaysia however I would also try not to miss a Liverpool match wherever I might be. Oh by the way, was in Krabi, Thailand for some R&R and I am glad to inform that itz a beautiful place. Sumthin like our very own Cherating in Pahang. The main attraction I guess would be the very very beautiful Phi Phi Islands (the place where alot of hoo haa was created prior to the filmin of the BEACH - the Leonardo Di Caprio movie).

note: sowee no pics yet...!!!

Ok Ok. Back to the match. After the dull draw wif Spurs, no one on this planet would have bet on Liverpool winnin the Merseyside Derby against local rivals Everton. Hell, I was expectin an arse whoopin by the boyz in Blue.

It was dinner time in Krabi, went to this recommended restaurant for some original hot & spicy thai food and it was superb as most of the entourage was perspiring bucket loads. Nothin beats original Thai. Newayz, back to the match.

By the time we sat down on the dining table, the match was already half way through. I couldnt believe it for a moment. The Reds were leadin the Blues by one goal but hey, it was barely first half. So basically is was still too early to shout.

From the one nil lead and the way the lads were playin, it was really encouragin. Hell it was entertainin. That was the first time that one would have the feelin that the team might actually win the bloody match.

True enuff, second half came and two more glorious goals were added to the tally. It was oh so satisfying. Not only was I enjoyin the holiday, Liverpool won wif clean sheet and all but the biggest joy of it all was, it was over Everton.

Three beautiful RED sunset days over the pale BLUE seas of Krabi...!!!

Ever wondered why we managed a win over Everton when everybody knowz that the Blue half was playin much better football lately compared to their Red half?

Put it this way, Liverpool played the correct style and tactics. The passing was back. Not polished though but nevertheless, it was back...!!!


U'll Never ever Walk Alone if u play dat way...!!!
