AFC Asian Cup Final
Congratulations to IRAQ who are the new Asian Football Champions. A hard-fought 1-0 win against the Saudis was enough for the resilient side led by the enigmatic Younis Mahmoud, who scored in the second half with a looping far-post header.
And now let’s pray for the safety and harmony of the nation. Football has always been a remedy for conflict and this win will hopefully bring a lull to all of it.

The curse of Oyashiro-sama
Naotake Hanyu missed the crucial penalty in Japan’s defeat in the third-place playoff of the Asian Cup 2007.
… the script couldn’t have been more Higurashi than that.

Naotake Hanyu was introduced in the second half of Japan’s defeat by the Saudis last night (3-2).
Auauauauauau… he crashed the post. Must be Oyashiro-sama’s curse :<
Nothing serious yet, wait till August.
