Quit decision was Cheng Hoe’s own as he did not achieve target


PETALING JAYA: No one cornered Tan Cheng Hoe to quit his job as the national football coach as it was his own decision.

The 53-year-old was expected to continue guiding the Harimau Malaya despite their poor outing in the recent AFF Suzuki Cup but he wanted to own up to his shortcomings and felt that it was the right time to leave.
