Dah bersedia? Satu lagi event yang pastinya akan memeriahkan suasana di Malaysia, apatah lagi ia bakal bermula pada malam Hari Raya Aidilfitri yang diraikan seluruh Malaysia pada 15 Jun 2018 (seperti tercatat dalam kalendar).
Bolasepak adalah sukan paling popular di dunia yang punyai magisnya tersendiri. Ia boleh membuatkan dua orang bersahabat baik, dan boleh juga membuatkan dua orang bersahabat baik sebelum itu untuk menjadi 'musuh'.
Ia ada kekuatan untuk menyatukan satu kelompok dengan kelompok yang lain, hanya kerana menyokong pasukan FIFA 2018 yang sama.
