Memang kelakar betul la diaorang ni.....first time dpt tgk stadium banjir....
actually bukan the whole stadium tu banjir......just pada area tempat duduk penonton di bahagian atas. Kompem sistem saliran dia tak function dengan betul..... tersumbat maybe.....or mungkin masa proses pembinaan si arkitek/engineer tu tak terfikir pasal nie.....wallahualam bissawab.
Tapi ok what......bleh mandi kat swimming pool free sambil layan game football.....whatever la kan
Anyway korang layan la citer nie........

It is usually the players who are accused of diving at football matches.
However professional the players' dives become, they are unlikely to ever get into the realms of a Tom Daley-style pike or half twist.
But fans were able to take it one step further at the Morumbi stadium in in Sao Paulo, Brazil, after it was flooded by torrential rains to such an extent that supporters donned trunks and swam in the aisles.

Fans stripped down to their shorts and treated the 80,000-seater venue as a waterpark, plunging into the gangways of the upper tiers that had filled up with water.
Some, perhaps seeking relief from the Southern American heat, kept their team shirts on and elected to watch the game while bobbing up and down in the deep pools of rainwater.

The late arrival, Adriano, equalised with five minutes remaining to earn a 1-1 draw.
The result moved Palmeiras to within a point of leaders Corinthians at the top of the Sao Paulo championship and ensured their title challenge didn't sink.
