: It is clear from the Harimau Muda's failure to win any of their three Group D matches and subsequent elimination from the Asian Football Confederation Under-23 Asian Cup tournament in Doha, Qatar early today that not much homework or groundwork had been done.
However, their failure did not come as a surprise to former national footballer Azlan Johar, who felt that the team did not prepare as thoroughly as they should have.“The players were not given sufficient exposure at the international level. They need more international friendlies, more playing time and more experience.
Sports analyst Datuk Dr Pekan Ramli, meanwhile, feels that the Harimau Muda were not given the attention they needed to gear up for such a tournament. He said the national team should have, after qualifying for the Under-23 Asian Cup, focused on gathering players with the highest quality.
