Football: Axe to fall on five
By ERIC SAMUEL
PETALING JAYA: At least five players will be axed following the national football team's dismal
outing in the playing tour of Slovakia recently.
Malaysia lost three matches and drew one in the tour.
National material: Kedah striker Mohd Khyril Muhymeen (right) has been picked by national coach B.
Next month sees the Merdeka Cup kick off in Malaysia with eight countries bidding to win the trophy
won by Malaysia last year.
Seven of the countries have been confirmed while Kazakhstan have yet to confirm their
attendance.
Despite Indonesia having postponed the ISL for a month so they could compete in this competition
the Star doesn't include them!
The Merdeka Cup in Malaysia is an annual event which was won last year by the hosts who beat
Myanmar 3-1 in the final.
This time around it is being played in October and will feature eight nations. According to the
Star these are the confirmed participants:
Malaysia, Sierra Leone, Myanmar, Vietnam, Nepal, Bangladesh and Afghanistan.
