Syria uji anak didik Rajagobal malam ini


SKUAD emas bimbingan K Rajagobal bakal diuji menentang Syria dalam perlawanan persahabatan di Stadium Nasional, Bukit Jalil, malam ini sebagai persediaan sebelum berdepan Emeriah Arab Bersatu (UAE) bagi pusingan kelayakan Piala Asia, 6 Januari ini.




Seperti kelaziman yang dilakukan jurulatih kebangsaan itu, semua 23 pemain bakal diuji bagi menentukan 18 pemain yang layak membawa cabaran negara ketika pertemuan dengan UAE nanti.

“Pertukaran pemain mungkin banyak akan berlaku dalam perlawanan malam esok (ini) kerana saya akan menilai sejauh mana kemampuan setiap pemain. Namun pemain senior, Amri Yahyah mungkin tidak beraksi ekoran kecederaan lutut kanannya yang masih belum pulih,” kata Rajagobal.




Menurut Rajagobal, Amri akan terus diberi peluang membuktikan kecergasannya sehingga barisan 18 pemain dinamakan sebelum skuad kebangsaan berlepas ke UAE pada Isnin ini.

“Peluang Amri agak samar untuk berdepan UAE, namun tiada apa yang perlu dirisaukan kerana saya yakin pemain lain bersedia menghadapi segala situasi yang mendatang. Mereka sudahpun membuktikannya ketika di Sukan Sea Laos baru-baru ini.”

Syria yang menduduki ranking ke-91 dunia dilihat sebagai ujian yang tidak kurang hebatnya buat skuad kebangsaan, namun Rajagobal mempunyai misi tersendiri dalam impiannya membentuk sebuah pasukan yang mantap.
“Saya yakin semua tahu peluang skuad kebangsaan untuk beraksi dalam Piala Asia adalah tipis, namun ada sesuatu yang saya mahu mereka buktikan sekurang-kurangnya mendapat penghormatan dari lawan dan banyak pengalaman yang boleh mereka perolehi.” BH

Malaysian junior athletes are just too ‘lembik’

Saya setuju. We are working on more coaches! “ @ManOlimpik : Malaysian junior athletes are just too ‘lembik’ http://t.co/7D7wmHWaNy ” — Khairy Jamaluddin (@Khairykj) June 10, 2014 The benchmark. Can our junior athletes train as hard as Malaysia's world No.1 badminton player, Lee Chong Wei? “IT IS okay lah. The training is not too bad lah. I will try lah … Wah, so hard lah today.” These are some of the common statements I hear from our juniors nowadays. It is not only in badminton. It is the easy-going, laid-back attitude and lack of competitiveness at grassroots level that we have problems producing quality players. I have travelled quite a bit. After ending my decade-long career with the national team, I went to play in the league in Europe. It’s different there. The European athletes know what they want. And they do it with real focus. Even the young ones possess admirable self-control and show a high level of commitment. During my time in the ...

Organising Major Sports Events Can Inspire Sports Culture Among The People - Khairy

PUTRAJAYA, June 5 (Bernama) -- Organising major sports events can help inspire sports culture among the people and ensure a healthy lifestyle said Youth and Sports Minister Khairy Jamaluddin. Khairy said the Tour of Malaysia cycling race organised since 1963, for example, can encourage more people to take the sport in a more competitive way or just for recreation purposes. "A study carried out by a world renown medical journal, The Lancet, revealed that 61 percent of adults in Malaysia do not engage themselves in active sports. "A study by the Health Ministry revealed that only 25 percent of Malaysians exercise," he said in his speech when launching the 2013 Tour of Malaysia (Jelajah Malaysia) at the Youth and Sports Ministry, here, Wednesday. "Cycling, though not as popular here as in countries like Denmark, the activity is becoming popular among the people as can be seen through an increase in sale of bicycles for recreation," he sa...

Badminton: Fans rooting for all-Malaysian semis

Reports: RAJES PAUL KUALA LUMPUR: The home fans will be rooting for an all-Malaysian men’s singles semi-final between Lee Chong Wei and Liew Daren. But Chong Wei is more fancied to advance than Daren in quarter-final matches against Indonesian Simon Santoso and Dane Peter Gade-Christensen respectively at the Putra Stadium in Bukit Jalil today. Yesterday, Chong Wei defeated Vietnamese Nguyen Tien Minh 21-9, 18-21, 21-7 in a second-round match that saw the world number one struggling to adapt to the draught in the stadium in the second game. And Daren continued a fairy tale run in his home Open, blowing away a toothless Hsueh Hsuan-yi of Taiwan 21-14, 21-12. Although Choong Wei had to slog for the win over Tien Minh, the top seed and defending champion felt that he was playing better by the day. “I got off to a good start but found it hard to cope with the draught. I tried to catch up after losing my momentum but that did not happen and I decided to conserve energy for ...
