Sun Hei footballer Cristiano Cordeiro played his last football game on Sunday, in Mongkok stadium with a lot of fans and friends. Cordeiro, now 38 years old, dedicated his best time for Hong Kong football, played for SCAA and Sun Hei in his 14 years time in Hong Kong. He also gave up his Brazilian citizenship in order to represent Hong Kong in the international stage.

Gary Neville in Hong Kong

What did we do yesterday? We went to Hong Kong international airport and see who we found?! Gary Neville! He is in Hong Kong for a few days to meet his fans, and we were lucky enough to see him yesterday. Nah, not to interview him, just…like a fan girl. =P

Sun Hei vs Pegasus: Winner of Half Season

 
Mong Kok stadium was very busy last week, hosted plenty of big games, including this one on Saturday, JC Sun Hei vs TSW Pegasus.

Home team Sun Hei scored an early goal at just second minute into the game, goal scorer was Gerard. Both teams were testing water and no one managed to score another goal at 1st half, so the scoreline remained 1-0 as it reached half time. However, Sun Hei’s nightmare began at the 2nd half.

Citizen vs SCAA: Some Shocking Moments

It wasn’t a quiet night at the Mong Kok stadium on Friday. Citizen was there to take on South China, and the match ended with a lot of noises.

Carreiro scored at the 3rd minute for Citizen to give them an early lead. Citizen kept pressing throughout first half which gave them plenty of chances. At 32 minute, SCAA Yeo Jeehoon was sent off after receiving his second yellow. Later, Yuto Nakamura managed to scored another goal before the end of the first half. Giving Citizen a two goals lead into half time and SCAA was a man down. It all looked like Citizen had the upper hand, but things started to get complicated when 2nd half began.

Although we were unable to follow the team to China, we were supporting them in front of our computers during the game. We are glad that Hong Kong team managed to bring home the trophy after 120 minutes and a rare penalty shootout.

Guangdong-Hong Kong Cup 1st Leg: Hong Kong 2-2 Guangdong

Although Hong Kong stadium wasn’t full last night, the atmosphere was awesome. Hong Kong fans never stop cheering for their team and when the team scored, a lot of people stand up and applauded. The atmosphere had made my friend who entered the stadium for the first time, feeling warm and excited. For me and other friends who didn’t watch Hong Kong football for quite some times, we felt the excitements and were cheering with everyone else as well.
