Another thing is that he must praise Singapore as a good team. The two goals that Thailand conceded were very difficult to defend. He believes that from now on, Singapore will be a better team.
The War Elephants coach continued that during the half-time break, we let our team watch a video of the game, showing everyone that the attacking game was good, so we emphasized that we would continue to do that in the second half, and we also urged the defense not to lose their rhythm or concede more goals. Most importantly, we would like to thank the players who helped each other play until we came back to win in the second half.
When asked about the final match against Cambodia, which the Thai national team has already guaranteed to advance to the next round, whether he will focus on it or not, Ishii said that even though he has advanced, he will still look at each game one by one. In the next match, he might rotate and rest some players, but he must not make too many adjustments that would cause the team to lose its balance.
For the Thai national team, they have collected 9 points from 3 matches, guaranteeing their entry into the semi-finals as the group champions. They will play their last match against Cambodia at Rajamangala Stadium on December 20 at 8:00 p.m. In the other match, Malaysia will host Singapore on the same day.
