Hong Kong hosted the East Asian Games in December 2009 the first major,
―
international multi-sport competition held in the city. It provided a tremendous opportunity to showcase Hong Kong's ability to organise a large-scale, multi-venue event and to encourage greater community participation in sport.
For many in Hong Kong,
the defining moment of the Games was
Hong Kong's nail-biting gold medal victory in football – the joy of which is so clearly captured on
the faces of spectators who packed into Hong Kong Stadium for the final.
