Elavarasan has his work cut out despite U-23 team making the Finals


PETALING JAYA: Malaysia’s football team were lucky to qualify for the AFC Under-23 Asian Cup despite losing to Thailand but one thing is certain – they need a tactical overhaul to improve further.

The team coached by E. Elavarasan went down 0-1 to Thailand in a poorly executed game in their final Group H match at the Chonburi Stadium on Tuesday and had thought all hopes were gone to qualify for the Asian Cup in Doha, Qatar next year.
