Marriage test on the soccer pitch

I'm Singaporean, and my husband is Burmese.

Which also meant that the Singapore- Myanmar soccer match at the AFF Suzuki Cup on Wednesday was set for a spectacular husband-wife showdown.

I called my husband from the office, trying to keep my voice even: "Honey, I've scored a pair of free tickets to the Singapore-Myanmar soccer match tonight! We should go!"

"Oh, umm, okay?" he paused, betraying an utter lack of interest in the subject. Neither of us is a soccer fan, and although we do watch it casually - we caught a fair bit of the World Cup on TV - it's never quite been something that has ignited the sort of rabid passion that caused Myanmar fans in Yangon to riot after they lost 1-0 to Indonesia at the SEA Games last year, eliminating them from the finals.
