Now it will be the PRC trash to turn our National Stadium into Beijing National Stadium. One round of humiliation from the Liverpool fiasco is not enough, this time they are getting all the PRC trash here to turn the stadium into a sea of communist red on our National Day. Damn fuckup!

To celebrate Singapore's National Day, the Singapore Lions are set to play China in the National Day Challenge.
The National Day Challenge 2009, which will take place on August 12 at the Kallang National Stadium, is the brainchild of local sports and marketing consultancy firm, The Red Card Pte Ltd which is headed by former national footballer R. Sasikumar.
According to Sasikumar, there are plans in place to bring other international teams. Asian giants, Japan have already been identified for future games.
"I firmly believe that this annual Challenge will play an important role in the ongoing development of football in Singapore. The tournament, although a Friendly, allows players access to a high level of opposition which provides them with a platform for competitive player development.
"In addition, this Challenge represents another opportunity to reach out to dedicated football fans within the Singapore sporting community. What better way to reinforce the values that make football so appealing, than to have it coincide with Singapore's birthday?" said Sasikumar.
The National Day Challenge has no prize money on offer, but national pride obviously is at stake for both teams. The two teams last clashed in September 2006 during the Asian Cup qualifier where both teams drew 0-0 at the National Stadium. Earlier, China narrowly beat Singapore in Tianjin with a 93rd minute penalty, despite pre-match predictions that the host country would win comfortably.
The Lions will be eager to prove that the results were no flukes where China would want to regain the respect of being one of Asia's footballing giants, having gone from playing in the World Cup Finals in 2002 to being ranked by FIFA as the 13th best team in Asia. Currently, China are ranked 108th and Singapore 127th in the FIFA world rankings.
The match is also crucial as part of Singapore's preparations for the upcoming Asian Cup qualifiers where they are set to play against Thailand in November.
Says Singapore National Coach Radojko Avramovic, "We'll be facing a quality team with good individuals who will be out to prove themselves as many are new to their team.
"It's up to us to analyse our last game (against Liverpool) and to look at different options in our lineup. This game will be important for us to choose our best possible team to for the matches against Thailand."
