西游记 (Journey to the west)

Prelude: "Ok, ok... Let's just say if I'm resident staying in western part of the island, I'll find it FAR too , to travel to Toa Payoh, if the national team choose to play in the central region... Fair?"

So, Jurong West here I come...

Fear the idea of getting stuck in the train jam, so I thought it was a safer option to book a cab (oh well, sometime you really need to spend to avoid any mishap.)


Hmm... Your typical SSC stadium, which is not always football priority.

The MRT viaducts (or commonly called "tracks") should serve as a good marker, if you intend to make your way to and fro Boon Lay MRT station. (P.S: the tracks are meant for the Boon Lay line extension, which scheduled to be ready in a year time)


Both teams warming up for the fixture....

Crowds were streaming in slowly...


The cameras getting ready...The handshakes prior the start, after the national anthems played.

The western folks certainly appreciated what they saw (at least we drew against one of the Asian powerhouses eh.)

It was a long journey home for me (for sure)....

Which ended at 10.55pm at Braddell...
