BAND HIRED TO WELCOME ROBERTO, FIRMINO AND FABINHO IN SINGAPORE
Liverpool fan Ahmad Saifullah was a delighted man on Sunday night, not just because Reds’ rivals Manchester City had suffered a shock 2-0 loss to Wolverhampton Wanderers.
He was thrilled also because he had been informed by his percussion band Qara Rosa to perform at the Brazil players’ arrival at the JW Marriott Hotel Singapore.
Not surprisingly, the 25-year-old data analyst was excited to be greeting his idols Roberto Firmino and Fabinho, who arrived in a mini-van along with Everton’s Richarlison.
“The band was told on Saturday evening but I was informed only at about 11pm (on Sunday),” he told The New Paper.
“But I’m a fan of Brazil and it was too good a chance to miss.
“We made special arrangements to our respective schedules so we could head to work (or school) straight after and I pre-empted my manager who was understanding.”
