Football Association of Singapore have together with our friends at the People’s Association, agreed to a ‘live’ screening of the 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil™ Qualifying Round two 1st Leg match between Singapore and Malaysia on 23rd July at 7.30pm.
All tickets for the 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil™ Qualifying Round Two first-leg match between Singapore and Malaysia were sold out on the first day of sales held last Saturday at the Jalan Besar Stadium. Due to the overwhelming response, and the growing interest in this match between Singapore and Malaysia, we have embraced the feedback from the fans and in the past few days, have been working alongside our PA friends to provide an alternative viewing platform for supporters to comes together to cheer on the Lions as they take on Malaysia.
Hence, PA welcomes the FAS’s suggestion to screen the match ‘lives’ as it is an excellent opportunity for Singaporeans of different ages, different races and living across estates to gather and experience an evening of excitement, fun and bonding amongst them while cheering on our fellows Singaporeans on the pitch.
The ‘live’ screening of the match at the People’s Association, opposite the stadium, will definitely enhance the atmosphere both in and outside the stadium. Both PA and FAS are working closely together to ensure that fans will have an enjoyable evening at the event, and we believe this unison of voices from inside and outside of the stadium would provide a fantastic match-day atmosphere and wonderful support for our team.
Ridzal Saat, FAS Deputy Director (Marketing and Competitions) said: "People’s Association have been gracious and forthcoming with this initiative. This collaboration between the FAS and People’s Association is a great opportunity to give the fans who do not have tickets to bask in the match-day excitement and atmosphere. By watching the ‘live’ screening at the PA Lawn, these fans will lend an even stronger voice alongside those in the stadium. Let us all wear red and show the players our support.”
