- The Thai national team has not won in a friendly match during the FIFA Day after only drawing 1-1 at home with the Lao national team.
- The “War Elephants” were not superior at all, but took the lead through Seksan Ratree. However, Laos equalized through Bunphachan Bunkong.
- The draw with Laos was quite damaging because it affected the FIFA rankings.
The Thai national team has not won in a warm-up match during the FIFA Day and most recently drew 1-1 with the Laos national team at home last Sunday.
The “War Elephants” did not perform better at all, but scored the first goal from Seksan Ratree in the 60th minute. However, Laos equalized from Bunphachan Bunkong in the 69th minute.
The result of this match made Thailand draw both matches after the first match drew with Lebanon 0-0.
The draw with Laos was quite damaging because it affected my FIFA rankings. This is what I have to say after watching the สมัคร ufabet game.
Ishii’s intention
Calling up new players or giving chances to players who haven’t played much is a plan that
Masatada Ishii has planned to be an option for the ASEAN Cup.
Lack of understanding between each other is inevitable, and the competition is what follows. But I see it from another perspective, Ishii did the right thing by giving new people a chance.
Ishii ‘s purpose in this warm-up is to “test” who is good enough to compete for a position from the main team.
It is a more usable option, better than using the same old squad, and the players themselves will have the motivation to return to the league and continue to develop their skills.
I believe that Ishii himself must have a picture in mind of who he can continue to mold or who he really can’t do.
Team Preparation
This is a problem that has not been solved for a long time. We, Thais, have very little time to prepare the team, which is due to the league schedule that is still not balanced.
In addition, big clubs tend to refuse to release important players to play for the national team. The 8-0 loss to Georgia during Mano Polking’s era is a very clear example.
The lack of continuity with the forces that Ishii really intends to use has caused the Japanese head coach to have to constantly solve immediate problems.
As for the ASEAN Cup, which will start in December, it is also not during the FIFA Day. This means that big clubs are unlikely to release key players for the national team. Therefore, Ishii will have to choose to use the players from the warm-up matches with Lebanon and Laos as the main players.
The one with some potential
The new players that Ishii called up are not bad at all, and some are good enough to be regular players in the future.
We are looking for a left-back who will be a long-term successor for Theerathon Bunmathan , and there is a lot to be expected from Kevin Deeromram , who has been consistent for his club but has become a household name for him when he withdrew from international duty, even though it seemed like he was really hurt in the last round.
This time, we called up Wanchai Jarunongkran and Titathorn Aksornsri as left backs, who took turns being the main players. Their form was not bad at all. There were no mistakes.
Seksan Ratree, despite missing minutes on the pitch for Buriram and barely having any part in the game when he came on as a substitute in the match against Lebanon, created quite a stir when he started in the match against Laos. He excelled in getting in the goal, which was the origin of the first goal.
In the game against Lebanon, Sringkhan Promsupa was questioned about his height, but he used his speed and accurate tackling to cover up his weaknesses. He has a chance to be a substitute because his teammates in the game against Laos, Pansa Hemviboon and Suphan Thongsong, missed the goal.
Phanthamit Prapan also said in the previous game that at only 21 years old, which is the same age as
Sek San , both of them still have a chance to be in the national team for a long time. But the important thing is to be able to last.
Always affects FIFA ranking points
Meeting Lebanon, even though they are a lower ranked team, is not that far apart. Plus, Thailand often loses to the Arabs. With new players, a draw is not too bad.
However, before the match with Laos, there was only a clear win. It was only a prediction of the score whether it would be a landslide or a close call.
Laos is ranked 187th in the world, which is 91 places lower than us. Therefore, the draw immediately caused Thailand’s FIFA ranking score to drop by -2.88. When combined with the draw with Lebanon in the previous match ( -0.61 ), it means that Thailand lost a total of -3.49 points in this round of FIFA days.
