Samsung Chelsea Asia Tour 2008 - Malaysia vs Chelsea FC

The match between Malaysia and Chelsea FC did not turn out to be as exciting as I expected. Nevertheless, Chelsea FC and their fans did rocked stadium Shah Alam on the 29th July 2008.

It was a big night for the Malaysian team as they go head to head with the English club giant, Chelsea FC during their Samsung Chelsea Asia Tour to Malaysia. The event was jointly organised by FAM and ProEvents.

Getting to the stadium was quite a hassle, especially when the traffic starts building up from the Subang toll all the way to the stadium. By the time I reached the stadium, it was already crowded with fans dressed up in blue and yellow and the entrance queue was exceptionally long. It was definitely more happening at that time than during the AFC Asian Cup back in July 2007.

The game kicks off on time and here are the photos:

It was quite a surprise to see the stadium almost filled up. I got the opportunity to be on the field and be on the front seat to watch the match, behind a camera :)

For those who really wants know how it’s like, watching football at the corner of the field. Here’s how it looks like. Click on the photo below for bigger view.
