PETALING JAYA: Negri Sembilan’s L. Kalaiharasan and Sean Eugene Selvaraj are still coming to terms with their surprise inclusion in the Kuala Lumpur SEA Games football training squad.

What makes the two 21-year-olds different from the rest is that they are the only two President’s Cup players in the 22-man squad who left for Xiangtan, China, yesterday for an eight-day playing tour.
