Ishii urges football fans to cheer on the ‘War Elephants’ in a friendly match against ‘Laos’ tonight at 7:30 p.m. at Thammasat University, Rangsit.
On November 16, at the press conference room of Thammasat Stadium, Pathum Thani Province, the organizers held a press conference before the first friendly match according to the FIFA Day calendar between the Thai national team and Laos.
The press conference was led by Masatada Ishii, head coach of the Thai national team, along with Wanchai Jarunongkran, left back of the Thai national team.
Masatada Ishii, head coach of the Thai national team, said, “If possible, in the game we will meet Laos, we will try to give every player a chance to play, to try out the team for the ASEAN Championship. As for Mikkelson, of course he has a leg injury, and we have decided not to send him to the field in this สมัคร ufabet game.”
“For the tactics to meet Laos, we will try to focus on team preparation more. We do not think that Laos came to replace Yemen, who had to withdraw from this warm-up match.”
“For the last game against Lebanon, it took us quite a while to make the game ours. In this game, we have to try to control the game as quickly as possible. I want the players to try to show their potential. As for the number of fans in the game against Lebanon, it might be because it was a weekday so there weren’t many. In this game, I want a lot of fans to come and cheer us on.”
Wanchai Jarunongkran, left-back for the Thai national team, said, “The atmosphere within the team is very good. Everyone has practiced well and I believe that we are good enough to win this game. Of course, if I have the chance to play, I will try to do my best because being in the Thai national team has always been my dream.”
