Things That I Missed

So its been a while i've been gone from my blog and i realized that so many things has happened recently. The Thai teams is getting dominant in every level of competition among the Southeast Asia, they won the  2014 Suzuki Cup and 2015 SEA Games, and also reached 4th in the 2014 ASIAN Games...woooww what an achievement they got. Myanmar also made a huge success by qualified in to U-20 World Cup that just held in New Zealand this month, the football development has been run very well since the effort by their govenrment by once isolated nation.
Thailand NT that won the 2014 Suzuki Cup
Although the result may not pleasing (beaten by USA 1-2, by Ukraine 0-6 and NZ 1-5) but hey they could be future stars for the region in the next few years. Philipines or we knows as Azkals also almost reach the 2015 Asia Cup. Unlike other countries that still fought in the qualification phase the Azkals entered the AFC Challenge Cup in order to play in Asia Cup among the emerging countries such as Afganistan, India, North Korea, etc. Palestine won against them in the final by 1-0 so there are no Asean representative there.

But the future looks bright for them  as Azkals won the two early games in the 2018 World Cup Qualification against Oman and Yemen. I will talk about this more in the next post. Now its time for Timor Leste who just reached the second round of the 2018 World Cup Qualification for the first time in the history by beated Mongolia in the first round. A lot of new "Brazillian Blood" been injected to this team so no wonder they got in to this stage.

Move to the next Timor Leste, we got Indonesia!! Yeah the country i'm rooting for. It's been pretty sad to see Indonesian football these days. It was confirmed that Indonesia have been excluded from the qualifying competions after suspended by FIFA because of the govenrment interference led by Minister of Youth and Sports, Imam Nahrowi.

Please post your thoughts and questions below and pardon me for the English.
