My earliest exposure to football was during the 2002 World Cup held in Japan and Korea. The final was a thrilling affair with Ronaldo (the OG, not CR7[LOL] ) in his own element alongside his fellow "R" s, namely Ronaldinho, Rivaldo, Roberto Carlos and the rest. They Samba-ed their way to the World Cup trophy in an enthralling final which ended in 2-0 with Ronaldo scoring a brace. After the World Cup, the football fever did not fade. I was a primarily school kid back then. The craze really caught onto everyone. Football games during the PT classes were never the same again, with a friend of mine even spotting the weird Ronaldo haircut which looks horrible by the way[Chuckle] That World Cup will forever have a special place in my heart, being my first exposure to the Beautiful Game. 20 years later, I'm now a die-hard Liverpool fan who has visiting Anfield on my bucket list. Why Liverpool? It's a club full of tradition and currently has a very down-to-earth Manager, Mr. Jurgen Klopp with many wonderful players who cares for the society apart from their prowess on the field, such as Alisson, Thiago, Hendo and Mo Salah as reflected in their CSR videos. Loved 'em to bits! #ynwa
