Malaysia in AFC Asian Cup 2007 (part 1)

about 20 days ago, it was Malaysia biggest moment in football world when we finally have the chance to take part in AFC Asian Cup 2007 due to the co-host thingy..ya, we are one of the co-host for the competition besides Thailand, Vietnam and Indonesia.

It is a historical moment for us because we are celebrating our 50th Independent Day. Everyone putting high hope on it. 2 days before Malaysia against China, our head coach said.We need to perform very well, we need to be at our very best. I hope the Malaysian fans will back us no matter what happens on the pitch.

Now is the time for Malaysian football to show what level we are at. We are honoured to be one of the hosts and the spirit in the camp is okay. We now just want to do our best in this tournament.

Two days later, we lost 5-1 to China. I bet even you don't watch football, you will surely heard this humiliating news from a friend of yours. All those well prepared, morale boosting event and kik lik kak lak thingy has turned into waste.





Our head coach Norizan says"The game plan tonight was to try and stop the crosses but as the game went on and China continued to move the ball, then we lost our shape and that is why there was room on the flanks.”( but did they really try??)

What they complaint is China players are much more taller with average height of 180cm while Malaysia's players have average 170cm.

let us go around the world and search for some well known footballers who are not taller then 170cm.

Full name :Lionel Andrés Messi
Age :20 years old
Nationality:Argentina
Club :Barcelona
Height :169cm

At age 11, he was diagnosed with a growth hormone deficiency. But at the age of 18, he has been marked as one of the greatest footballer at this era and also known as the next Maradona( Argentina football legend)


Full name : Roberto Carlos da Silva
Age : 33 years old
Nationality: Brazil
Club : Fenerbarche
Height :168cm

One of the best left back in the world who played in Real Madrid for successive 11 years plus winning world cup with Brazil. His famous left foot free kick has made him well known especially his super curling shot against France.


Full name: Paul Aaron Scholes
Age : 32 years old
Nationality: England
Club : Manchester United
Height : 170 cm

Playing for Manchester United for almost 14 years as the key man in the middle of the field. He has been known as the midfield master who used his great vision and skills to get the ball off from taller players. Most of the world class midfielder would like to play alongside him.

What does this shows?? Short player can't play?? Short player can't compete against taller players?? ( wait until you see how high they can jump)

It is all the matter of how much effort they put and how hard they work for it.
Our player got no guts fight for our country, although they say they do. But I didn't see anything but disgrace performance. Watching local games is like watching comedy where you can seriously laugh your ass out with what they did on the field.

Okay okay, back to the game. So height is one major problem, what is the solutions??
1. drink more high calcium milk.
2. choose players who can jump at least 1m high
3. stop eating nasi lemak, so they have lighter body to jump higher
4. stop drinking teh tarik or bandung
5. stop eating rendang
6. play basketball before play football ( at least can jump higher)
7. try "pull bone" therapy
8. stop playing football..play futsal enough already
9. wear football boots withs spring
10. PLAY with small kid, eventually you are taller.

"can't jump higher?? kick their balls!!!!"
