Thailand will be hosting Group G in AFC U23 Championship - Qualifiers

Teams : Thailand , PHILIPPINES, North Korea and Cambodia
The ten group winners and best five runners-up from all groups qualified for the final tournament.
Uphill battle for the u-23..it must be noted that the current team of thailand who dominated our senior azkals is compose of u23. I guess 1 point is good enough
ReplyDeleteNah.. only 10 of 22 Thai squad in the Suzuki Cup are 23 y/o or younger as of now. Plus, this is the qualification tourney for 2016 U23 competition, so players should be 1993-er or younger, which only 5 Thai players in the Suzuki Cup squad qualify. Well regardless, Thailand will be tough. No doubt. But the bigger problem will be North Korea who has been always a big force in AFC underage tourneys. I think it's gonna be an extremely hard mission for PH to get past this group.
DeleteWhat does North Korea and Thailand that we don't have? Well, its a simple answer Academies built by their federation and supported by their loving government. They train, eat, study, sleep and play together since U6 until U23's while our PFF doesn't care the youth. We have good players who are from different highschool and colleges which will only form a national team when called upon. That's how pathetic our federation .
Deletewin or lose we must participate in order to gain experience thats the point
Deleteand yet Thailand cannot defeat Japan its a good thing that Thailand won against the Phil. because if they lose they will be terrorize by there own people look at Indonesia they train,eat,study,sleep and play together but they forgot their homework the Azkal will continue to give them a scare and upsets and that is football
DeleteWow pinoy football newbies are for sure fun to watch. Train,eat,sleep together ? What the bloody fuck are you talking about? They all have their own club and it's only a few days in a year that national team train together. It's all the same in footballing countries in the world. Academies? Basically academies are also built and run by each clubs, not by federation and government.
DeleteWell Philippines have no professional clubs, no club academies yet so you won't understand this basic concept of football. And that's why you only have to be half-breed digger worldwide to compete with other countries, right? But anyway, get some common knowledge before embarrassing yourself.
Eat , sleep , train and play? But Vietnam and Thailand had these kind of structure and they beat Azkals. Thailand can't beat Japan but North Korea had just beaten them recently in U16 AFC Youth tournament who basically had an academy built by their leader and the country doesn't have a professional league but they have a place in the World Cup last 2010 and now is threatening to comeback at the WC2018. That's why not all academies are run by federation you fool. Check your facts first before you bark!
Deleteour u23 (some from suzuki cup squad too) will give them a fight surely.
ReplyDeleteThailand is not the only threat in the group but its also North Korea the more dangerous opponent. God Bless our team.
ReplyDeleteYes, and don't give up just yet. More dangerous, more challenging opponents, more to learn, more experience. Keep on fighting #Azkals #JuniorAzkals
