South Korea had to play 4 match continuously, and it did really affect
their performance. Apart from Malaysia all other team had to play at
least 3 match continuously. So AIFF scheduled matches in favor of
Malaysia, great planning
What a game by the lads, we held the best in Asia bar Japan & Aus. It could have totally gone our way hadn't players gone for individual glory. Perhaps lack of competitive matches cost as against previous opponents. Can't recollect when was the last time we had a bunch of genuinely talented players across any age groups. One aspect where we need to look upon is how to set up a goal as i found the lads were too quick to take the shoot. Also set pieces need to be improved. If we could work on these aspects then AFC semis is a possibility. I wished we are grouped with iran or meet them at any stage in the AFC cup to tech those arrogant a lesson.
