Hoki, Piala Sultan Azlan Shah - Misi Malaysia elak tangga tercorot


TAI Beng Hai menegur kegagalan Faizal Saari menyempurnakan peluang gol ketika Malaysia menentang India, kelmarin. 
 
IPOH - Malaysia perlu menang pertemuan dengan Pakistan hari ini bagi mengelak terus menghuni tempat tercorot pada Kejohanan Hoki Piala Sultan Azlan Shah.
Selepas tiga perlawanan, Malaysia menduduki tangga terakhir daripada tujuh pasukan dengan 2 mata hasil dua kali seri.

Skuad Tai Beng Hai yang meletakan sasaran untuk ke perlawanan akhir, seri 1-1 dengan Korea Selatan pada aksi pembukaan, juga seri 3-3 dengan Britain dan kalah 2-3 kepada India, kelmarin.
Selepas menentang Pakistan, Malaysia bakal mengharungi dua perlawanan sukar iaitu menentang New Zealand esok dan Argentina pada Sabtu.

"Dalam kedudukan kita sekarang, kita tiada pilihan selain daripada bekerja keras bagi mendapatkan mata penuh supaya tidak kekal pada tangga tercorot," katanya semalam.
Beliau berharap jentera serangan tidak lagi mempersia-sia peluang menjaringkan gol seperti mana perlawanan sebelum ini.

Tegasnya, kegagalan Faizal Saari menyempurnakan dua peluang gol menyebabkan Malaysia terpaksa berputih mata apabila kalah 2-3 kepada India, kelmarin.
Beng Hai percaya Malaysia mampu menumpaskan Pakistan kerana prestasi kedua-dua pasukan hampir sama.

"Kita tahu kelemahan dan kekuatannya yang mana boleh dimanipulasi untuk mengutip mata penuh," ujarnya.

Jelasnya, dia berusaha memperbaiki kelemahan pada pertahanan agar tidak mudah dibolosi lawan.
Selain itu, Beng Hai perkemaskan strategi pukulan sudut penalti kerana peratusan kegagalan menyempurnakannya masih tinggi.

"Saya meminta pemain supaya berhati-hati dengan pukulan sudut penalti Sohail Abbas yang amat berbisa," katanya.
Pakistan berada di tangga keenam dengan mengumpul tiga mata.

Rajagobal Let Off The Hook

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...
