All I can say is that the pitch is way horrible than the Malaysia match that drew us. It's really bumpy. We could've been 2 or 3 nil up after the match. And I guess Neil is not acting Diva-like, he's just frustrated with the pitch, well, I am too myself. I also don't like the point of putting Mulders together with PYh. I think he's better if he's in Angeles' position. One thing I noticed in the second half is the cohesion between Global FC players. They're playing smooth. Maganda yung flow talaga nil with Wolf, Carli, Reichelt and even with Misagh. I guess much better if Reichelt is paired with PYh upfront and Mulders as attacking mid. Pero all in all, ang putch talaga yung prob ko. Kahit si PYh na frufrustrate na dahil dun. Just my thoughts.

Can we please stop making excuses for the team about the pitch conditions? It's beyond our control but true teams can overcome such circumstances.

I'm watching the game... Chieffy, what a surprise, he's got his legs back, still rusty but definitely belongs on the pitch if he plays like this again. Yeah, man. Chieffy looked better. I was happy for the guy. And yes pitch was bad but that's not in anybody's control. Still need to finish. Reichelt looks good too. He was too nice on that one breakaway. He should have just taken that shot. And I agree that Mulders is in the wrong place. De Jong too. Overall play was good just need to finish. I actually enjoyed watching it. Oh and Neil E. looks unpolished sometimes. Something about it.

The Pitch in RMS and U-Mak is way better than the Pitch in cambodia. It seems a lot of bumby road in this game hahaha plus really a Bad weather. But i enjoyed it watching, Si Neil dalawang beses sinipa ang bola sakto nagbounce, mapapansin nyo hindi na masyado pinapa back pass ni Neil ang bola. Mas pinaghahandaan nila ang game againts Singapore time na para maka bawi.

i see Reichelt as a promising young player, he has a good first touch,speed, good ball control and dribbling. better than James, the only positive side for James is he is good in headers and his chemistry with his brother.

I was happy for the guy. I would say Chieffy's best game this year so far... hopefully he peaks come suzuki time. all in all, it was a good but frustrating game. We need to finish! that killer instinct! If only Reichelt had Chieffy's confidence in attempting to score last night...

Cheffy has still with him his captain's armband until around 75th minute when Misagh went-in in favor of Caligdong

I agree this is probably Chieffy's best game in a long while. I just need to see better and consistent passes and crosses from him. He played decently in this game now lets see if he can do it against better opposition. He can really help the team if he does.

Jeff C played well at LB...Lets see what he can do on better oppositions like Bahrain and Kuwait.. I think it about time to train local based LB..Ray Johnson is not getting any younger and Dennis Cagara is always doubtful on his availability.Jeff C is a natural left footer and a very good advantage as an LB..If you know Jordi Alba is a left winger before in Barcelona and converted as a Left wing back during his Valencia days and he really improved and very effective in that position...Right now he is back at barcelona as LB..heheh

i saw the game. cambodia was weak, especially lacking in creativity. they were playing for the draw, which was assisted by -
1) our mifiring forwards. we had 2 certain goals missed when our players got past the defense with the keeper poorly positioned. both shots were scuffed and weakly sent directly into the arms of the cambodian keeper. We should have done better.
2) field condition was very poor. virtually impossible for the guys to string smooth passes together along the floor. this led to lots of long balls and when a pass on the carpet was attempted, first touch was usually off due to the bobbles.
3) much of the 2nd half was played in torrential rain, making smooth flowing football impossible.
4) Cambodia milked every push with time wasting delay tactics, writhing on the pitch whenever an azkal touched them.
cambodia knew a draw would help their fifa ranking. their cheating and gamesmanship was done with purpose. etheridge had NO serious threat to his goal (altho he dangerously bobbled one and mis-kicked another). we are clearly the better team and in better conditions will completely disassemble them. singapore will be a VERY interesting match - I'm sure the conditions will be better and hopefully our shooting will be improved..

I am unlocking this thread just incase people would like to chime in:Apparently this match was not a FIFA "A" match because Cambodia used more than 6 subs(they used 7). Thus, the game was struck from the record here: www.fifa.com/associations/association=phi/index.htmlI say good training anyway + rankings will not be affected by the draw. All credit to Jonny(aka filipinofootbal) for finding this out. What's your take?
