National U-23 football coach faces striking problems


PETALING JAYA: Coach Razip Ismail is cracking his head to get his strikers firing on all cylinders as Malaysia head into Friday’s AFC Under-23 Championship qualifiers.

The team’s poor goals ratio per game is troubling Razip who has to make-do without injured first-choice striker Shafiq Shaharuddin. Injured Ramzi Haziq Mohamad may also be out when the 23-player squad are finalised on Thursday.
