Malaysia won but not strong

Malaysia won the maiden world league two 2 days ago. among the 8 teams, malaysia was the top seed and they lived up to the expectation. Apart from Japan, the rest were trashing boys.

Now Malaysia have qualified to the Wold league semifinals, where top 3 teams will qualify for the olympic games. Being 4th placed Asian Games, Malaysia had to take a tougher route to qualify for olympics.

Of course we had score line of 16-0 for singapore, 4-1 for oman, 10-1 for mexico and 8-0 for poland. But we could only secure a draw against Japan and beat them 3-2 in penalties.

Going to higher level tournament also means the teams are tougher. Wonder if Malaysia still can play stronger with new coach Hawgood.
