Product Review: Nike First Touch II FS - Varsity Royal

(P.S: This is my first attempt in writing product review, opinions expressed below are sole personal from the blogger himself , without any form of interference from whosoever entity or individual.) THE FIRST IMPRESSION "Wow!","Striking!" - those were the reactions from my friends upon the unveiled of " Nike First Touch II FS - Varsity Royal" (as illustrated above). The first impression of this footwear is the eye-catching glossy royal blue coloured leather top. Cushioned padding around the ankle area of this shoe is critical, as twisting and turning revolving the ankle is a common motion when playing futsal. Although it fitted in nicely, it's bit tight, however just right (some players would prefer a little more room for the feet, rather than being tight-fitting). As this is not your typical conventional soccer boots that are fitted with screwed or moulded studs, I think these shoes also make an ideal footwear for your daily outdoor activities. THE &

Instant Reaction: Though din make thru but it was a perfect end ....

FIFA website shown the stats as at the stoppage time Game over... It's another end of the chapter following this win at Beirut. Cheers boys, at least we won the last game and being the first team to score against the Uzbeks. Take this as a good learning curve and I'm pretty sure that few years down the road, this current crop of players will be enshrined being one of the best teams played for the country.. (after all, we have never been come to this far, right?) See you guys back home :)

It's not just about S.League..(having Beach Fun at downtown)

.. that this blog been covering, rather I would welcome any opportunity to take a peek on other forms of the game being played in Singapore, after all, this is blog is a "simple view on Singapore Soccer". Being told visually that was this "Velocity Beach Festival" being held at Novena's Velocity and one of the events feature was the " 3-on-3 Beach Soccer Competition ". So after the mandatory market session, I headed down to the mall that prided itself as "Singapore’s dedicated sports mall" . Everything looked disorganized when I first arrived at scene, saw some guys having a kick-about in the sand pit. (only to realize they were just getting ready :P) A few close-up shots from the sideline. Some action-packed photos from the sideline. AFTERTHOUGHTS No t a bad idea to catch some beach football action in a downtown area, eh? One thing I do realized is playing the beach version of the game require one's leg muscles to be strong and well-con

What a fiery end....

The mock background at the lift lobby of JBS In the end, Gombak United claimed their first major trophy since joining the S.League with two goals from their "Golden Boy" - Gabriel Obatola in the Avaya -J & J League Cup Final. While Jeon Byung Euk's stunning equalizer levelled the scores in the second half, the match was concluded in a fiery manner which saw three players being sent off. Personally, I wasn't impressed with Bulls' 'keeper's "playing with the fire" antics that triggered the mess towards the end. SOME PICTURES FROM THE LEAGUE CUP FINAL The Super Reds spared no effort to hype up the support by roped in K-Pop artistes from Korea and the fans luv it, of course A video clip of their performance. Gombak coach Swandi Ahmad (center) shared his thoughts after a fiery finale.

.. of you at the National Stadium just now, for the presumptive last game at the Grand Ol' Dame of Kallang. Many Thanks to Ms Lee TienSin for taking this shot at the doorstep of "Press Booth No.2" (Wish I could have the black tag as a souvenir) Unfortunately, the gallant Hassan Sunny in goal was not enough to stop the Saudis from confirming their spot in the final round of the World Cup qualifiers at our own expenses (those of you who saw the game should know why and how..) With the exclusive last goal-scorer at the National Stadium fallen to Ahmed Al Fraidi. SOME PICTURES FROM "SILVER" ROOM "We knew it will be a very hard game against Singapore, especially after they scored three goals against Uzbekistan (in their last home game)." said Saudi coach Nassir Johar (wearing a cap), through his translator on his right. "And they made the Uzbeks suffered a lot before wining the game 1-0 at Tashkent. "We were tactically well-prepared, having know
