Part 1: Month of Football - July 2011

last night monday, Women World Cup 2011 already come to an end, and we have the new champion - Japan. for the 1st time, a country from Asia won the cup. i watch this tournament even it is woman who play it. from what i see, most of the goal in this tournament likely from the long shot. i just dont know it is a pure luck whether the goal keeper is not good enough or players technique. i bet man player should learn from them how try long shot often :P

Congrats なでしこジャパン :) - sos

Also last night monday, copa america beat the odds which saw brazil knock out in the quarter final against paraguay.2 fav teams which is likely expected to meet each other in final is knock out =.= brazil is last defending champion while argentina is the most time winner with 14 titles. there are another team which is 14 titles also which is - URUGUAY!. uruguay still in the competition and will meet paraguay in semi final.its quite disappointing for argentina because they are host for this competition this year T-T and fyi, this competition is the oldest competition in football history :)

 

this is old picture actually. adriano and crespo not represent their country anymore. but, both team are knock out in early stage and we miss the great football match.nevermind, maybe another year! :) - sos

FIFA U17 world cup also held in this month.but it start last month actually.the title goes to Mexico :) they wont against Uruguay.seems like Mexico got hot prospect for the future. but that doesnt guarantee though. it was more memorable moment as they celebrate the victory at their own soil. Mexico is the host for FIFA U17 this year :)

 congrats young el tricolor! :) - sos

i read in forum where malaysian also got many young talented player. the youth coach agree with that. young i mean here is U17,U15. at international stage, they often go far in the competition.what the problem is, when they finish they school.they continue their study and abandon their football career. this is not a problem actually, this is the REAL mentality of malaysian parents, which is education is more important than football. we are not professional enough for football career in malaysia.sorry to say :)

mostly ppl focus on harimau malaya squad for their asia region world cup qualifying and harimau muda for olympic london qualifying. but ppl forgot there are harimau lebih muda :p also currently fighting in the tourney which is AFF U16 2011. the tournament end yesterday with Thailand won the title. Malaysia did not enter 2nd stage of the competition as they finish 3rd in Group A. 

malaysia young guns. not bad.they dont even lost in the competition.nvm, AFF U19 will be held on September 2011. go go harimau muda!

the senior squad won this tourney last year :) many ppl expect the junior team will do the same. many eh? =.= i wonder they know that this young squad playing in the competition.

ok thats all. there is lot football thing happened this month.this is part 1 :P


P/S: actually i have done this entry last monday.i forgot to post it XD
