Says coach!!
Ong Kim Swee: “We cannot underestimate Cambodia just because they came from the qualifiers and past results favour us. With the exception of Thailand, many teams in the region are quite close to each other. We need a win on Sunday to set us in a good position to make the semi-final.”
Lee Tae-Hoon, as reported on The Phnom Penh Post: “First of all we have to admit that these are the strongest teams in the region. We need to be at our best every time we take the pitch. This will be a big challenge for our players, who must raise their standards”
