‘Pemain Malaysia perlu bekerja keras andai mahu cari sesuatu dalam saingan Kumpulan C’
PENGENDALI skuad bawah 23 negara, Ong Kim Swee mengakui Jepun mendedahkan begitu banyak kelemahan dalam skuad Harimau Muda sepanjang saingan 90 minit di Stadium Tosu, Wilayah Saga di Pulau Kyushu, malam tadi.
Pada pengamatannya, pemain Malaysia perlu bekerja keras andai mahu mencari sesuatu dalam saingan Kumpulan C, kelayakan Olimpik bertemu dua lagi seteru, Bahrain dan Syria dalam kumpulan yang sama.
“Jepun diakui cukup bagus, pantas dan sukar untuk memberi tentangan. Inilah bezanya antara pasukan yang bagus dengan pasukan yang kurang bagus,” kata Kim Swee. “Banyak yang boleh dipelajari untuk dijadikan bekalan bagi cabaran seterusnya.
“Saya berpendapat semua pemain sudah beraksi dengan baik termasuk penjaga gol, Khairul Fahmi (Che Mat) yang bermain dengan baik untuk membataskan jumlah jaringan Jepun dan menyusun benteng pertahanan.
Jepun memperoleh gol pada setiap babak, menerusi gol pembukaan pada minit ke-10 menerusi Hiroshi Kiyotake sebelum pemain gantian Ryohei Yamazaki memastikan kemenangan selesa 2-0 pada minit ke-78.

PETALING JAYA, April 24 (Bernama) -- National head coach Datuk K. Rajagobal was let off the hook by the Football Association of Malaysia's (FAM) Disciplinary Committee after finding no evidence that he had violated FAM's Article 88, as claimed. FAM Disciplinary Committee chairman Datuk Taufik Abdul Razak said the committee had decided not to charge Rajagobal after carefully analysing the video of the post-match press conference by the 56-year-old coach. "After listening to the recording of the post-match press conference, we decided to drop the charge against Rajagopal as he did not make such a statement. "Maybe his (Rajagobal) assessment and comments of the match was misconstrued by the media. There was no mention of the FAM policy throughout his comments," said Taufik after emerging from a three-hour Disciplinary Committee meeting at Wisma FAM in Kelana Jaya, here, Wednesday. Rajagobal who does not mince his words when asked to com...

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 ...
