What's extra cool is that each country has their own way of cheering while watching football matches. For example, here in Malaysia, it's not uncommon to hear everyone chanting "ole, ole, ole" or doing the Mexican wave.
Other iconic ways of cheering include Argentina's "Vamos, vamos, Argentina!" and Iceland's rhythmic Viking clap. And true football fans will recognise Panama's "Ring, Ring, Alo, Alo contesten el tel que Panama goleo", as well as Costa Rica's "Ole, Ole-Ole-Ole! Ticos! Ticos!".
Since the World Cup is being held in Qatar this year, it's the perfect time to learn a typical Arabic football cheer — "Yalla! Yalla!"
Yalla is a common expression in the Arabic language which means "come on" or "let's get going", and is mostly used to say "hurry up".
To make it a bit more Malaysian, you can chant "yalla bola!" while watching World Cup 2022 matches, hehe.
And when it comes to places to gather with friends to watch football matches, there's no better place than a mamak, which is why there's gonna be some super fun football events going on at mamaks in December
Spreading the 2022 football fever, the Yalla Bola kat Mamak event is set to be really happening. Hosted by Hanif Miswan, there'll be games with prizes to be won, free food for early birds, lucky draws, and lots of freebies — football fans, y'all definitely won't wanna miss out!
