STANDARD Chartered Bank Malaysia Berhad (Standard Chartered) announced the winners for its Standard Chartered Liverpool FC MasterCard Debit Card contest recently.
The contest was launched during the football team’s first ever tour to Kuala Lumpur in July this year which created a lot of buzz among local footies.
The grand prize winners, Muneswaran Jayabalan, 26, and Puvaneswaran Maniraj, 27, went on a five-day, four-night trip to watch the play-off between Liverpool FC and Manchester City FC live on the hallowed home grounds of Anfield on Nov 27.
Muneswaran who hails from Penang said: “I’m a die-hard Liverpool FC fan so you can imagine how elated I was about winning this trip. I’ve never been to Anfield before so the trip was a blast! I can’t describe the atmosphere at the stadium and I was speechless from the moment I stepped foot in there.
