Malaysians are quite avid sports fans, although for most of them, the extent of participation would only be as a spectator, watching the action from the comfort of their living rooms. Ever so often, sporting events would be held and it is then that Malaysians tend to turn out in droves, especially if it is a sport that has a large following, like football.
