U MOBILE BRINGS FOOTBALL FEVER TO BERJAYA TIMES SQUARE

Exclusive Viewing Party of BPL Match between Cardiff City FC & Manchester United FC to Celebrate Fans and Friends of U Mobile

Kuala Lumpur, 27 November 2013 – Loud cheers could be heard from far away as both football clubs battled it out in a match between Cardiff City FC versus Manchester United FC during an exclusive live viewing party that took place at The Boulevard, Berjaya Times Square. The match, akin to a battle between David & Goliath, saw guests from U Mobile gathered together at the ‘U Mobile Road to Cardiff Tengok Bola Live Party’ to cheer for their favorite teams and participated in the evening’s activities.

A sea of people in red jerseys, which is the official jersey colour for both football teams, flooded the entrance of the shopping mall, and was seen cheering their favourite teams as Cardiff City FC take on last season’s BPL championship titleholder Manchester United. Fans of the respective teams burst into cheers and victory chants whenever their favourite team scored a goal. The thrilling match between Cardiff City and Manchester United ended with a 2-2 draw, much to the delight of the fans.

U Mobile, the official telecommunication partner for Cardiff City FC, brought greater excitement to the viewing party by organizing fun activities, lucky draws and games to engage and reward their customers at the ‘U Mobile Road to Cardiff Tengok Bola Live Party’.
