INJURY to key players is threatening to throw a spanner into national coach Datuk K. Rajagobal's preparations for the crucial AFF Suzuki Cup semifinal clash against Thailand on Sunday.
Though the first leg semifinal will be played at the National Stadium in Bukit Jalil on Sunday, Rajagobal's strikeforce has been grounded with injuries to S. Kunalan (thigh), Wan Zack Haikal Wan Nor (stiff muscle), Mohd Shakir Shaari (heel) and Mohd Safee Mohd Sali (hamstring).
"I will seek the advise of the team doctor before making any decision," he told reporters at Wisma FAM in Kelana Jaya here yesterday.
Rajagobal said he would use the friendly match against Police tomorrow to identify players who can replace the injured players.
As for the match against Thailand, Rajagobal said he was not too worried about Thailand because he was aware of Winfried Schafer's style of play.
"We have played against Thailand in a friendly match on Nov 7, at the Muang Thong Stadium, and I am aware of Thailand's capability," he said.
In the friendly match, Malaysia lost 0-2 to Thailand. — Bernama
- Nampaknye Rajagobal terpaksa bereksperimen utk match semi ini, gara-gara byk player injured. So formasi pilihan anda? klau aku
------------ Farizal -----------
Mahali - Aidil - Fadhli - Zubir
Khyril - Gary - Safiq - Alex
-------- Mat Yo - Badrol ------
Nampaknye dedua winger agak kurang menyengat, so most probably fungsi dedua winger ni adelah cut in & skor, Mat Yo & Badrol boleh try tarik CB ke arah tepi so that Winger leh cut in & shot.
