Liga Perdana Brunei tidak terjejas - AFC

Oleh: Amnri Haji Zainuddin
BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN, Jumaat - Berita baik untuk pemain dan peminat bola sepak tempatan - Liga Perdana Brunei tidak terjejas dengan pembatalan pendaftaran Persatuan Bola Sepak Brunei Darussalam (BAFA) dan boleh dilangsungkan pada bila-bila masa.

Perkara ini dimaklumkan oleh Pegawai Media Konfederasi Bola Sepak Asia (AFC), Lazarus Rokk ketika dihubungi Media Permata di Kuala Lumpur, petang ini.

Perkhabaran itu sekurang-kurangnya merawat duka daripada episod hitam yang menimpa badan induk bola sepak Brunei itu setelah rayuannya agar pembatalan pendaftarannya diketepikan ditolak oleh Kementerian Hal Ehwal Dalam Negeri Rabu lalu.

Namun apa yang lebih dibimbangkan iaitu Brunei melalui pasukan atau kelab-kelabnya tidak dibenarkan sama sekali menyertai mana-mana pertandingan atau liga yang bernaung di bawah AFC dan Persekutuan Bola Sepak Antarabangsa (FIFA) menjadi kenyataan.

Menurut Lazarus: "Brunei tidak boleh sama sekali menyertai atau menganjurkan mana-mana kejohanan antarabangsa kerana ia sudah pasti tertakluk kepada AFC dan FIFA. Ini memang peraturannya.

"Namun Brunei tidak ada masalah untuk meneruskan liga mereka sendiri. Dalam erti kata lain, liga bola sepaknya (Liga Perdana Brunei) boleh diteruskan seperti biasa. Malah semua aktiviti bola sepak domestik tidak terjejas dengan pembubaran BAFA. Mereka bebas meneruskan sebarang pertandingan tempatan."

Bekas Setiausaha Agung BAFA, Pengiran Haji Metussin Pengiran Metassan ketika dihubungi untuk mendapatkan komen mengenai berita baik itu berkata: "Saya tidak mahu bercakap apa-apa ketika ini. Saya akan bercakap minggu depan."

Ditanya mengenai kemungkinan persatuan bola sepak baru seperti BAFA perlu didaftarkan semula untuk membolehkan mana-mana pasukan negara bertanding di pentas antarabangsa, beliau sekali mengulangi: "Tunggu saja minggu depan."

Pihak Urus Setia Liga Perdana Brunei juga tidak mahu mengulas perkhabaran dari AFC itu.

Ini bermakna kelab elit negara, DPMM FC, yang kempunan bertarung dalam Liga Malaysia 2009 selepas disingkirkan oleh Persatuan Bola Sepak Malaysia (FAM) ekoran kegagalan BAFA memberikan penjelasan mengenai status pembubaran mereka baru-baru ini, boleh bersaing dalam liga kebangsaan - yang tidak pasti bila akan membuka tirainya.

DPMM FC semalam mengambil keputusan menamatkan kontrak dua pemain Malaysia, Chan Win Hong dan Bobby Gonzales namun di masa yang sama mengarahkan pemain lain menjalani latihan seperti biasa.

Di sebalik berita menggembirakan itu, kedudukan Kejohanan Trofi Hassanal Bolkiah yang dijadualkan tahun depan berada dalam kekaburan kerana ia melibatkan penyertaan pasukan negara-negara ASEAN.

Pertandingan yang dilancarkan pada 2002 melibatkan pemain Bawah 21 Tahun itu dianjurkan dan secara teknikalnya diuruskan oleh Kementerian Kebudayaan, Belia dan Sukan dan BAFA dengan kerjasama Persekutuan Bola Sepak ASEAN (AFF).

Acara berprestij yang berhasrat menyahut titah Kebawah Duli Yang Maha Mulia Paduka Seri Baginda Sultan itu adalah untuk mendedahkan kemampuan semangat kesukanan ASEAN kepada dunia di samping memberikan peluang kepada pemain muda berentap di pentas serantau.

Sementara itu Lazarus berkata, beliau sendiri ada mendengar mengenai pembatalan pendaftaran BAFA namun enggan mengulas lanjut sebaliknya berkata hanya pihak atasan AFC boleh memberikan kenyataan berkaitan.

BAFA pada asalnya ditubuhkan pada 15 Mac 1956 di Seria dengan nama Persatuan Bola Sepak Amatur Negara Brunei (BSAFA) sebelum menjadi Persatuan Bola Sepak Amatur Brunei (BAFA). Apabila Brunei mencapai kemerdekaan pada 1984, ia ditukar kepada Persatuan Bola Sepak Brunei Darussalam sehinggalah ke hari-hari terakhir pembatalan pendaftarannya.

DPMM FC News - Adan snubs DPMM

Shukor Adan change of heart
DPMM Football Club expectations to get the Malaysian national player, Shukor Adan failed after he signed for NS Naza.

"Shukor Adan who have decided to play with us last month for the upcoming season however, change his mind in the last minute and decided to accept the offer from NS Naza," said the DPMM team manager, Pg Waslimin yesterday.

Although we felt disappointed, Pg Waslimin said that his side have to respect his decision becuase of family reasons that Shukor has to play in his home town.Until now, Bobby Gonzalez and Chan Wing Hoong are ready to join DPMM 2009 season.

"We still look around and offer some Malaysian players to join us," said the team manager.Mentioning on the preparations on the team,Pg Waslimin said that the team have shown a lot of improvements with having two training sessions in the morning and afternoon everyday.

He continued to say the team will be having some warm-up friendlies in Labuan,Malaysia and Singapore in December before the season begins in January.

DPMM FC News - Import Players Appeal rejected!!?

It looks like DPMM FC's effort to reverse the Football Association of Malaysia's (FAM) ban on imports for next season are not working out, with their team manager yesterday revealing that the chances of it happening are now next to impossible.

"We have yet to receive in black and white that our appeal is not successful, but I have heard that it is not going to happen," said Pg Waslimin PSJ Momin during a telephone interview yesterday.

The FAM ruled August to ban all foreign players from its domestic leagues next season in a move aimed at developing local talent, but Brunei's premier club wanted to convince it to make an exception.

According to FAM's head of the Department of Competition Ahmad Fuad Daud, when contacted in mid August,no other team have made such an appeal.

The news will come as no shock to the team's two imports, Guinean striker under-performed Keita Mandjou and Croatian defender Rene Komar- especially for the latter who admitted last month that his chances of playing for the Sultanate's premier club next season were slim.

Meanwhile, Pg Waslimin confirmed that ex-Malaysian international Chan Wing Hoong, who used to ply his trade for Perak, was the club's newest signing.

Arriving in town on Nov 6, the long-serving Perak defender signed on the dotted-line four days later, with his contract officially starting on Nov 1.

"After watching him in action during training, the coach (Vjeran Simunic) felt that signing him would be a good decision," said Pg Waslimin.

"He brings years of experience to the side and the coach was really impressed with him," added the team manager.

Chan made his name playing for Perak where he served for nine season in two spells from 1998-2005 and again from 2007-2008.

He also participated in the 2002 Tiger Cup, 2006 Merdeka Tournament and the 2007 Asean Football Championship.

Another player who had signed for the club was Bobby Gonzalez and Pg Waslimin said that the ex-Sabah striker was fitting in well.

Pg Waslimin added that DPMM's other new player, ex-Selangor captain and current Malaysia national team skipper Mohamad Shukor Adan, would only be making his way to Brunei after the AFF Champions Suzuki Cup.

Gamba Osaka - Champions of Asia

A double from Brazilian striker Lucas inside the opening twenty minutes gave Akira Nishino’s stylish outfit cup glory at a packed-out Hindmarsh Stadium.

First Half


It took Gamba only four minutes to effectively end Adelaide’s hopes of lifting Asian club football’s most prized trophy, doing so in a matter perhaps more befitting an archetypal league encounter than a continental cup final.

However, the nature of the goal highlighted the gulf in class between the two clubs that was apparent across 90 minutes in Japan a week ago.

Midfielder Hayato Sasaki was at the heart of the move, twisting and turning just outside the penalty area with the surrounding Adelaide players simply unable to shackle the 25 year-old.

His eventual shot was parried by 17 year-old Mark Birighitti into the path of the mobile Lucas, who tapped the ball into an empty net.

The sharp movement of the striker was a stark contrast to the lethargy of those defenders around him, both in the lead-up and reaction to a goal that silenced an initially vocal sell-out crowd at Hindmarsh Stadium.

Immediately appearing unable to break down their cultured J-League opponents, Adelaide’s first attempt on goal arrived courtesy of a half-turn by Cristiano outside the box, after which the Brazilian striker’s tame effort was saved comfortably by Fujigaya.

It was only a minute later however that Gamba tore apart the home side’s defence with the simplest of moves.

A complete absence of man-marking from Adelaide was a stark contrast to the apparent impenetrability of the Japanese side’s defense, as Takahiro Futagawa found himself unchallenged inside the Adelaide half.

The Gamba veteran then produced a perfectly-weighted through ball for Brazilian striker Lucas, who spun away from Michael Valkanis with ease before producing a wonderfully delicate finish past Birighitti to make it 5-0 on aggregate.

Cristiano’s disallowed goal on 26 minutes epitomized what was has been a frustrating and fruitless final for Adelaide United, with the Brazilian striker rightly flagged for offside after heading home Jamieson’s cross from close range.

Their defensive frailty was similarly reflected only two minutes later, as Robert Cornthwaite decided to let a cross into the area run free, only to see it arrived to Futagawa at the back-post.

His cushioned header set-up the influential Sasaki, who could only direct his half-volley at Birighitti.

Gamba’s first-leg star Michihiro Yasuda then embarrassed Robert Cornthwaite when he turned the towering full-back on the by-line, before playing the ball back to Hideo Hashimoto, whose close range effort was blocked by the ‘keeper.

Second Half


An improved start to the second-half by Adelaide saw them denied what appeared to be two penalties when Kristian Sarkies and then Cristiano were brought down in the area, with the crowd galvanized by the flurry of attacking pressure from the home side.

Even with a new-found momentum and sense of purpose, Aurelio Vidmar’s men still struggled to break down their opponents, with their first half-chance arriving through a misdirected Diego snap-shot on 62’ minutes.

The fact that it was virtually Adelaide’s last opportunity of the match is an indication of the quality of performance of the Japanese outfit, who comfortably held on to the lead secure their first ever Asian Champions League trophy – just reward for the style of football cultivated by manager Akira Nishino, whose players were quick to hoist up their leader in celebration after the final whistle.

Adelaide 0
Gamba Osaka 2 (Lucas 5', 15')

DPMM FC Update - Shukor Adan plays for DPMM next season

Shukor Adan sah wakili DPMM Brunei musim depan

KUALA LUMPUR, Selasa (Bernama) - Ketua pasukan kebangsaan Mohd Shukor Adan akan mewakili pasukan Brunei Duli Pengiran Muda Mahkota (Brunei DPMM) pada saingan bola sepak Liga Super musim depan.

Perkara itu disahkan oleh pengurus pasukan Brunei DPMM, Pengiran Muhd Waslimin Pengiran Abdul Momin kepada Bernama setelah kata sepakat dicapai antara kedua-dua pihak pada awal bulan ini.

"Shukor akan menandatangani kontrak dengan Brunei DPMM dalam masa terdekat setelah selesai tugasannya dengan skuad kebangsaan Malaysia di Myanmar," katanya, Selasa.

Muhd Waslimin memberitahu pemilihan Shukor,yang menjadi buruan mereka sejak bulan lepas, adalah berdasarkan pengalaman dan mutu permainan yang ditunjukkan oleh pemain berusia 29 tahun itu.

"Malah kita juga telah menandatangani dua bekas pemain pasukan Malaysia iaitu Bobby Gonzalez dari Sabah dan pemain pertahanan, Chan Wing Hoong yang bermain untuk Perak musim lepas," katanya.

Sebelum ini, pasukan Brunei DPMM cuba memikat pemain kebangsaan Indra Putra Mahayuddin dengan tawaran gaji yang lumayan tetapi bekas pemain Selangor itu memilih untuk menyarung jersi Kelantan.

Muhd Waslimin berkata pasukannya itu meletakkan sasaran lima tempat teratas pada musim depan yang bermula Januari ini selepas hanya menduduki tangga ke-10 daripada 13 pasukan musim lalu.

Pasukan negara kini menyertai Kejohanan Piala Cabaran Grand Royal Ketiga di Yangon, Myanmar, mulai hari ini hingga 21 Nov ini.

Skuad bimbingan B. Sathianathan itu diletakkan dalam Kumpulan A bersama Ulsa Hondai Club dari Korea Selatan dan skuad bawah 22 tahun Vietnam manakala Myanmar, Indonesia dan Bangladesh membarisi Kumpulan B.

My views..

What's new?? well not much really... i still haven't got a job yet.. i just had an interview last week..so i'm still waiting for the reply. Anyways, there's been a lot of things happening around the world..recently its about the financial crisis that has hit America and the world. It's not the first time that America has been hit by a financial crisis.. they had "The Great Depression" of 1929, where the stock market in wall street crash. The exact date: October 29, 1929, also known as "Black Tuesday". I just hope that everything will be alright...and that i hope the rest if Asia won't be affected by it especially Brunei.

The next big thing, is Barack Obama becoming the first Black American to be President of the United States of America. I've been following his progress since the debate against Hillary Clinton. I would like to congratulate him on this historic success and moment. Most of the people, believes that he is a muslim but infact he's not, as obama himself has said that he is a christian even though he did live in indonesia in the 1960s. As well all know, Indonesia is one the largest muslim populated country. By living in a muslim country, unlike the other president before him, obama knows that Islam is not a religion that teaches people to be a terrorist but its a religion of love and compassion towards others.

Gamba 3-0 Adelaide: Gamba close in on ACL glory


OSAKA – Gamba Osaka have one hand on the AFC Champions League trophy after dismantling Adelaide United with a 3-0 victory in the first leg of the final at Expo ’70 Commemorative Stadium on Wednesday.

Brazilian striker Lucas opened the scoring with a deflected shot in the 37th minute and then set up the second for Yasuhito Endo six minutes later.

Michihiro Yasuda volleyed home Gamba’s third in the 68th minute and although Endo had a late goal disallowed, the margin of victory gives Adelaide a mountain to climb in next week’s return match in South Australia.

With Eugene Galekovic still feeling the effects of a groin injury, Gamba tested the Adelaide keeper early on with Myojin sending in a snap shot from 25 yards that was alertly palmed away.

However, the pressure of the home side paid off in the 37th minute as Takahiro Futagawa’s neat pass from the halfway line picked out Lucas in the right channel with only Angelo Costanzo in close attendance.

The Brazilian worked his way to the top of the Adelaide box and although his shot lacked real conviction, it took a deflection off Costanzo and wrong-footed Galekovic as it bounced into the net.

Sota Nakazawa sent a header straight at Galekovic shortly afterwards before Gamba grabbed a second two minutes before half-time after some fine interplay in the Adelaide half.

Hayato Sasaki fed the ball to Lucas and the Brazilian quickly played it to his left to a completely unmarked Endo. The Japan international advanced into the box and fired a low shot across a helpless Galekovic into the far corner of the net.

Travis Dodd crafted his side’s best opportunity early in the second half, sending in a low cross from the right byline that found Robert Cornthwaite. But the Adelaide player failed to make clean contact and the ball eventually went over the crossbar after a scramble in front of goal.

Sasa Ognenovski deflected a shot by Lucas into the side netting but from the resulting corner in the 68th minute, Endo picked out an unmarked Yasuda, whose first-time volley from the top of the Adelaide box bounced past a crowd of players into the net.

Gamba continued to press for more goals and were unfortunate not to add a fourth as substitute Roni fired over in the 75th minute before Masato Yamazaki saw his shot tipped over by Galekovic seven minutes from time.

Endo then fired home a free-kick in stoppage time but the effort was disallowed after referee Abdul Malik Bashir spotted an infringement in the box.

DPMM FC sah sertai Liga Perdana Malaysia

BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN, Rabu - Pengurus pasukan DPMM FC, Pengiran Waslimin (gambar atas) mengesahkan kelab DPMM FC akan mewakili pasukan negara untuk beraksi dalam kancah Liga Perdana Malaysia dan FA Cup musim 2009.

"Kita perlu lebih cemerlang pada persaingan musim baru ini," jelasnya ringkas tetapi penuh bersemangat ketika ditemui di Gadong hari ini.

Beliau mengakui pihaknya telah menerima tawaran dari FAM untuk menyertai kejohanan itu bagi musim 2009.

Kelab DPMM FC ketika ini sudah menjalani latihan secara berterusan bagi meningkatkan keupayaan dan kemantapan pasukan di bawah kendalian ketua jurulatih, Vrejan Simunic dan Mohd Ali Haji Momin selaku penolong jurulatih.

"Selain mengekalkan pemain-pemain lama, kita juga dijangka akan mengekalkan beberapa pemain yang sama-sama beraksi dalam Piala Suzuki AFF di samping mempelawa beberapa pemain muka baru dari kelab-kelab tempatan," ujarnya.

Dalam masa yang sama, DPMM FC juga terus membuka pintu kepada pemain-pemain berminat dari kelab-kelab di Semenanjung Malaysia termasuk dari Borneo untuk menyarung jersi DPMM FC bagi musim 2009 ini.

"Sebelum ini, beberapa pemain dari Malaysia yang berminat telah datang menjalani latihan ujian bersama pasukan. Kita menilai beberapa sudut sebelum menawarkan mereka untuk bermain bersama pasukan kita," jelas pengurus itu.

Antara pemain yang telah ditawarkan ialah pemain lincah Shukur Adan dan Bobby Gonzales dari Sabah dan berhasrat membawa kembali khidmat Jagathan yang pernah beraksi selaku penyerang tengah DPMM FC musim lalu.

Menurutnya, dijangka 4 sehingga 6 pemain akan ditawarkan untuk menyertai kelab DPMM FC dalam memberi cabaran lebih hebat musim ini.

Ketika ditanya status perkembangan mengenai cadangan kelab berkenaan untuk meminta pihak FAM agar mengecualikan pasukannya dari "membawa" pemain import, Pengiran Waslimin menjelaskan setakat ini pihaknya belum menerima jawapan dari pihak FAM.

Bekas pemain pertahanan kental, Rene Kumar dan penyerang berbisa kancah Liga Malaysia, Keita Manjou sebelum ini sudah mengikat kontrak bersama kelab DPMM FC.

"Kedudukan mereka akan diketahui sedikit masa lagi apabila FAM akan mengadakan mesyuarat mereka bagi meneliti dan mempertimbangkan sama ada membenarkan pasukan kita menyenaraikan pemain import lagi bagi musim ini," jelasnya.

Liga Perdana Malaysia musim 2009 dijangka akan membuka tirai pada awal Januari depan.

Indra sah wakili pasukan Kelantan



Annuar Musa (barisan depan dua dari kiri) menerima surat kontrak daripada Indra Putra Mahayuddin pada majlis Rumah Terbuka KAFA sempena Aidilfitri di Kota Bharu, semalam.


KOTA BHARU - Pemain bola sepak kebangsaan, Indra Putra Mahayuddin semalam sah berada dalam senarai pemain berstatus bintang skuad Kelantan untuk menempuh musim baru Liga Malaysia lebih menyakinkan dan penuh harapan.

Pengumuman mengenainya dibuat oleh Presiden Persatuan Bola Sepak Kelantan (KAFA), Tan Sri Annuar Musa pada majlis rumah terbuka sempena Aidilfitri persatuan tersebut di Wisma KAFA dekat sini, semalam.

Kedatangan bekas pemain Selangor itu telah melengkapkan pasukan tersebut dalam usahanya menyuntik nafas baru agar skuad Kijang berupaya melompat lebih jauh dan berada dalam lingkungan pasukan elit di negara ini.

Menurut Annuar, Indra telah menandatangani kontrak bersama Kelantan sejak beberapa minggu lalu, namun tidak dihebahkan kepada media kerana memberikan ruang kepadanya untuk menumpukan sepenuh perhatian dalam skuad kebangsaan.

"Kita sengaja tidak menghebahkan perkara ini lebih awal kerana tidak mahu tumpuan Indra yang ketika itu sedang memikul tugas bersama skuad negara dalam Pestabola Merdeka terjejas.

"KAFA amat berharap dengan kehadiran pemain ini akan memberikan suntikan semangat dan melengkapkan pasukan dalam mengharungi cabaran dalam Liga Perdana nanti," katanya.

Sementara itu, Annuar turut mengumumkan, ketua jurulatih Kelantan, Peter Butler sebagai pengurus pasukan yang baru bagi menggantikan Timbalan Presiden KAFA, Ahmad Jazlan Yaacob.

Menurutnya, bekas jurulatih Persiba Balik Papan, Indonesia itu dilihat berupaya untuk memikul tanggungjawab tersebut selain mencorakkan pasukan yang akan dibentuk.

"Kita mahukan satu kelainan sebab itu kita memilih Peter untuk menjawat jawatan sebagai pengurus pasukan yang mempunyai kuasa sepenuhnya.

"Kita tidak mahu berlaku pertindihan atau perbezaan pendapat antara jurulatih dan pengurus dalam menentukan kedudukan pasukan," katanya.

Dalam pada itu, Indra yang baru tiba di bandar ini bersama seorang lagi pemain kebangsaan, Daudsu Jamaluddin optimis dengan keupayaan pasukan barunya ini.

Pemain sayap itu juga percaya gandingannya dengan bekas rakan sepasukan di Perak, Khalid Jamlus dalam skuad Cik Siti Wan Kembang ini mampu memberikan impak yang besar kepada pasukan lawan.

"Kami berdua tidak pernah berbincang mengenai perkara ini (menyertai Kelantan) dan saya gembira sekiranya digandingkan bersama Khalid lagi selepas kali terakhir kami bersama pada 2001 ketika mewakili Perak.

"Saya berazam untuk membantu Kelantan menjuarai Liga Perdana dan membawa negeri ini menyertai Liga Super untuk musim seterusnya selain membawa pulang beberapa piala lagi tambahan pula pasukan ini ialah tempat asal ibu saya," ujarnya.

AFF Suzuki Cup 2008 - Brunei out of competition as Cambodia goes On..

PHNOM PENH (25 Oct 2008) – Cambodia celebrated their qualification into the main event AFF Suzuki Cup 2008 in December when they beat Brunei 2-1 in the fifth and final match day of the qualifiers at the National Olympic Stadium.

With both teams needing to win the tie on the day to make into the next round, it was Brunei who drew first blood through Hardi Anak Bujang in the 44th minute before Cambodia replied with the equaliser through Sam El Nasa a minute later.

But Borey delivered the winning strike in the 73rd minute for the more than 15,000 fans a reason to get to their feet.

“We are happy with the results and of course, making it to the main event of the competition,” said Prak Sovannara, the head coach for Cambodia.

“It was a tough match but I think that Borey has improved tremendously and that made the difference on the day.”

The game started with a curling corner from Hardi which forced Cambodian keeper Ouk Mic to come out for the punch.

Cambodia replied with a freekick from Kim Chanburith but Mohd Wardun Yussof was equal to the task.

The game went into higher gear after that with Brunei’s Mohd Abu Bakar Mahari going wide while Cambodia’s Chan Rithy’s cross was denied by Wardun.

But as the game became to slow down going into the break, Brunei grabbed the lead in the 44th minute with Hardi turning a defender before blasting the ball past the rooted Ouk Mic.

Under pressure from the fans, Cambodia pushed ahead and it took them less than 60 seconds to find the equaliser as Sam nailed the rebound off an earlier shot from Chan Rithy.

The second half saw Brunei playing it a little more cautious while Cambodia kept up with the same momentum.

In the 48th minute, substitute striker Kouch Sokumpheak broke through but his grounder went straight to Wardin instead.

Brunei’s only real chance after the break came off Mohd Subhi Bakir which came off the right post.

But there was no denying Cambodia the win and the full points when Borey picked up a short pass form the middle before putting it past Wardun.

Five minutes to the end, Borey had another chance to wrap the game up but his shot went inches wide in front of an open goalmouth.

“It was not easy to bring up the spirit of the players after the loss they suffered in the last game,” said Vjeran Simunic, the head coach for Brunei.

“But I am very disappointed with the loss today. It was a sad result for me.”

With the win for Laos, it has made the passage for the Philippines for the meet in December a lot harder.

AFF Suzuki Cup 2008 - Late Goal Downs Brunei

PHNOM PENH (23 Oct 2008) – A late header from Saynakhonevieng Phommapanya took Laos a step closer to confirming their place in the next round of the AFF Suzuki Cup 2008 when they beat Brunei 3-2 in the fourth match day of the qualifiers here at the National Olympic Stadium.

With the score tied at 2-2, Saynakhonevieng headed home the winner from the far post to give Laos their second win following their victory over the Philippines in their last match.

“We changed five players for this game and that was probably why we did not play well in the first half,” said Veleriy Vdovin, the head coach for Laos.

“We brought in the regulars after the break and we played much better after that. But I think that we were a little lucky today because if the Brunei team had defended better towards the end, we would have lost.”

With the win today, Laos have picked up six points while Brunei are still on four points going into the last match of the qualifiers on Saturday.

Laos, who had won the qualifiers two years ago in the Philippines, started stronger with Vongphet Sylisay blasting over a cross from Lamnao Singto early in the seventh minute.

But a minute later, Laos took the lead when Visay Phaphouvanin blasted in a goal mouth melee which took a deflection off a defender before sailing into the Brunei goal.

Rattled, Brunei pushed forward and while they totally muffed a double chance off a corner in the 20th minute, they made that up with the equalizer eight minutes later.

Mohd Azwan Saleh floated in a cross from the right for Hardi Bujang to deliver an inch perfect glancing header into the Laotian goal.

With the score level at 1-1 at the start of the second half, Brunei played a more defensive game while Laos piled on the pressure in search of the winner.

In the 53rd minute, Phayvanh Lounglath’s freekick went straight to the arms of Brunei keeper Mohd Wardun Yussof while five minutes later; a header from Lamnao came off the woodwork.

But while Laos was busy trying to prise open their opponent’s defence, it was Brunei who took the lead in the 84th minute when off a cross from Azwan, substitute Mohd Abu Bakar Mahari headed home from the near post for them to be in front for the first time in the game.

Laos maintained their composure and continued to pressure the cagey Brunei defence.

And before long they finally found the equalizer late in the 89th minute when Lamnao picked up a cross from the centre before chipping the ball over Wardun to put the score at 2-2.

With seconds remaining to the final whistle, came Saynakhonevieng’s header which put Laos firmly in the driver’s seat as they look to playing against Timor Leste in the final game of the qualifiers in two days.

“We are very disappointed with the results. We do not think that we deserve to lose this match,” said Vjeran Simunic, the head coach for Brunei.

“We have three players suspended and with this defeat, it is very difficult for us to qualify into the next round.”

AFF Suzuki Cup 2008 - Brunei Go Top

PHNOM PENH (21 Oct 2008) – Brunei blasted Timor Leste 4-1 to go top of the standings in the AFF Suzuki Cup 2008 qualifiers here at the National Olympic Stadium.

With Laos beating the Philippines 2-1 in an earlier match, it has made the chase for the two only available spots into the next round still open.

“It was an excellent game and it was tough until the final whistle,” said Vjeran Simunic, the head coach for Brunei.

“But we were going for the positive result as we needed the points to make sure that we have a good chance to qualify into the next round.”

With Timor looking a shade off colour as captain Alfredo Esteves looking a little restrained, it allowed Brunei more space to push forward.

It did not take too long for Brunei to go in front where in the ninth minute off a short pass from the left, prolific striker Mohd Shahraezn Said blasted home to put them in front.

Timor continued to struggle after that and with the failure to win the midfield battles, their stray passes added to the confusion of the forwards as Brunei continued to stamp their authority.

In the 26th minute, Shahrazen was again on target when he headed home a well-executed cross from Sairol Sahari to put the sultanate in a confident mood as they head into the dressing room at the half.

The second half saw Simunic urging his lads on and in the 57th minute, Brunei nailed their third goal of the evening when a clever chip from the midfield was put well beyond the reach of Timor keeper Leonel Araujo by the nippy Mohd Azwan Saleh.

Brunei gave then gave themselves an unassiable lead in the 76th minute with a penalty from Sallehuddin Damit although Timor did pull a goal back ten minutes to the end from Rosito Soares.

“Brunei started the match better than us,” lamented Pedro Almeida, the head coach for Timor Leste.

“We made two mistakes earlier in the game and they scored both times. That is football.”

After the loss today, Timor Leste became the first casualty of the qualifiers.

AFF Suzuki Cup 2008 - LITTLE BRUNEI HOLD PHILIPPINES TO A DRAW

PHNOM PENH (19 Oct 2008) – Brunei gave a sterling performance in their first match of the AFF Suzuki Cup 2008 qualifiers to hold the Philippines to a pulsating 1-1 draw at the National Olympic Stadium.

The sultanate side had the day off on the first match day two days earlier and were raring to go against the Philippines who have a roaring start to their qualifiers when they beat Timor Leste 1-0.

“We are a little amateur team,” said Vjeran Simunic, the head coach for Brunei.

“And the game could have gone either way. It was 50-50. But I’m very proud of my players for what they showed today.”

Brunei started the match strongly with prolific striker Mohd Shahrazen Said delivering a point blank shot which forced a spectacular save from Philippines’ custodian Neil Etheridge.

Three minutes later, Philippines fought back with a freekick from Alexander Borromeo which was cleared by the Brunei’s defence.

But in the 17th minute, Brunei went ahead when Shahrazen made good on a cross from Muhd Maududi Kasmi to put the ball over the reach of Etheridge for the lead.

Under pressure, Philippines created several chances after that but just can’t seem to find the last touch to make it count.

However, just when things seem to be heading for a deadlock at the half, Philippines finally broke through with the equalizer five minutes to the break.

An innocuous cross from the right was headed into goal by the waiting Chad Gould as Brunei’s defensive line failed to make the proper clearance.

The second half saw both teams upping the tempo which in the end resulted with a flurry of yellow cards being flashed by referee Setiyono Midi.

As the game wore on, Brunei became increasingly tired as they struggled to keep out the Philippines.

In the 68th minute, Brunei’s Sairol Sahari’s volley was denied by Etheridge while the Philippines replied with a header from Gould which went over the crossbar.

Philippines came the closest after the break but Ian Araneta’s blast came off the crossbar – much to the disappointment of the Philippines bench.

“I am not happy with the results where we were denied by the crossbar twice,” said Juan Cutillas, the head coach of Cambodia afterwards.

“The game was even, but we created the better chances. We deserve to win – there was no doubt about that.”

All the news will be taken from different websites/blogs. This will not be a football blog since it's my personal blog..but i would like to keep the blog interesting to other people/readers/blogger.

DPMM FC Update - Shukor to join Brunei DPMM



Selangor captain and national skipper Shukor Adan is close in joining Brunei DPMM FC for the start of next season Malaysia Super League. Reports have also indicated that Brunei are now interested in signing his former team mates Indra Putra and Akmal Rizal.

Asking about which team he will represent next season. This is his answer.

"Currently, I’m having discussions with two clubs/states. Brunei and Perlis. Nothing has been agreed yet because both of the team have met my terms. "


Akmal provide his opinion on Shukor Adan moves to join Brunei DPMM FC. Akmal felt it is good to Shukor to move on as he still among the best players in the country.

"He is a good player. If he ends up in Brunei or if any player in the country decides to go to Brunei it will be a good experience for them because Brunei is a good team who are playing in the Super League. Brunei may also have set new targets for the upcoming season and they want to win trophies. Therefore they want to bring in the top players from Malaysia. It will also be good for the Malaysian players to improve because it gives us the opportunity to play abroad even though Brunei is not far away from us."


Akmal also explained the reason behind players exodus at his former clubs.

"Under the new management at Selangor many changes have been made. Some of the players’ contracts were not renewed because we were not part of their plan for next season. The new management wanted to bring in new players to the team."

Akmal Rizal is one of the most travel player. He caught the attention when he is part of Under 14 national team. Since then he train at FC Strasbourg in 1999 and was offer loan to their sister club FCSR Haguenau year later. Unable to tie contract FCSR Haguenau he return home in 2002 to play with his hometown club Kedah until 2006. Then he moved to Selangor and his last season with red giant was a dissapointing one where he mostly used as a substitute.

DPMM FC Update - Transfer talk

DPMM FC have opened talks with Muhammad Shukor Adan in an attempt to sign the 29-year-old midfielder.

The former captain of the Selangor team and the skipper of the Malaysian national squad, Shukor is currently a free agent.

Shukor captained the Malaysian team against English Premier League side Chelsea at the Shah Alam Stadium in July.

They lost 2-0 to the Blues, but the current EPL leaders' manager Luiz Felipe Scolari praised Shukor and Co for putting up a good fight.

The Football Association of Malaysia (FAM) came up with a ruling in August that banned all foreign players from its domestic leagues next season. The move has led Brunei's premier club to look at signing quality Malaysian players to shore up its squad.

"He (Shukor) has good leadership qualities and we hope he can motivate our players," said DPMM FC manager Hj Eady Sardi PDDDP Hj Abd Razak when contacted yesterday.

"He is also a very good player. We hope our players can learn from him. That's why we want to sign him," he added.

"But no final decision has been made yet. If he agrees to play for DPMM FC he will arrive on Dec 1," said Hj Eady.

DPMM FC announced last month that they were chasing Shukor and another Malaysian international Indra Putra Mahyuddin.

Hj Eady, however, said that they were no longer pursuing Indra Putra, a prolific forward who plies his trade at Selangor and has represented Malaysia since 2002.

In August 1995, Shukor represented Melaka in the Under-18 FAM-Milo Championships.

He was then selected by German coach Holger Obermann to represent Malaysia in the 25th Asian Schools Championships in Kuala Lumpur in 1996.

Malaysia finished third in the tournament after losing 1-0 to South Korea in the semi-finals.

On Sept 28, 1997, Shukor scored a hat-trick against Brunei in the 26th Asian Schools Championships in Patna, India.

In 1998 he represented Negri Sembilan in Malaysia Games (Sukma) and helped his team become runners-up after losing to powerhouse Selangor. The Brunei Times

DPMM FC Update

MALAYSIAN international Indra Putra Mahyuddin is just one of DPMM FC's targets for next season's Malaysian Super League, revealed club manager Hj Eady Sardi PDDDP Hj Abd Razak during a telephone interview yesterday.

The forward, who currently plies his trade at Selangor, has represented Malaysia since 2002 and is one of the two Selangor players DPMM are interested in the other being midfielder and fellow international Muhammad Shukor Adan.

"We want to try and get these two players," said Hj Eady yesterday, confirming reports on the club's website.

"We have not made any contact with them or their agents, though we are planning to do so soon," he added.

Since the Football Association of Malaysia came up with a ruling last month which banned all foreign players from its domestic leagues next season in a move aimed at developing local talent Brunei's premier club is looking at signing quality Malaysian players to shore up the squad.

Melaka goalkeeper Khairul Izwan Jamaluddin, Police (PDRM) midfielder Md Norhisham Hassan, centre back Durahim Jamaludin and Sarawak striker Md Irme Mat are currently on trial with the club, with Negri Sembilan midfielder Rezal Zambery Yahya expected to arrive shortly.

Hj Eady also said that the club had sent an offer letter to Sabah striker Bobby Gonzalez last month, though they were still awaiting a reply.

DPMM were planning to appeal the ban on imports for next season and Hj Eady said that the club would be sending its letter of appeal as soon as next week.

If the FAM allowed the club to retain its imports, Guinean striker Keita Mandjou and Croatian defender Rene Komar could breathe sighs of relief..

Meanwhile, DPMM will represent the country in next month's Asean Football Federation's Qualifying Cup in Cambodia. Competing for the two remaining spots in the AFF Championship Cup, the team will leave for Cambodia on Oct 15.The Brunei Times

Playing Darkthrone

Hello,

Hmm..lately ani ku main game online sja..ehe kawan ku dari ITB.. invite aku main semula darkthrone (www.darkthrone.com), its a text based online game..mcm warcraft tapi without the 3D character lah.. macam arah warcraft orang nya dapat di garakan using click from a mouse. Tapi ani text based, ketani attack and liat if tentera ketani manang..if manang dapat experience and golds. Awal-awal bagi nyanyat lah game ani..siok jua lah ku main..tekenang jua masa main game ani d ITB dulu..huhu~~

Darkthrone or DT masa ani ada new updates lah..lau dulu alpha, pas atu beta, omega, silver and now gold..ada jua yang bebayar namanya darkthrone legend. Yang legend ani inda ku main lah...since ia bebayar..mana ku belurih kredit kad jua masa ani..ehe. Well so far masa ani, aku main both DT gold and DT beta..using my new and old account respectively. So far aku kana invite arah bnyk clan or alliance, tapi i have to be picky sedikit since ku takut krg ku inda active main..so far ku join alliance kawan ku yang invite ku main semula ani..

Nanti-nanti lagi lah ku update cana kedudukan ku di game atu..pasal nya masa ani aku camping..untuk kumpul gold and turns. Gold atu guna nya untuk melatih population ketani..either ia jadi miner, attacker, defender, spy and sentries.. and turns atu guna nya untuk bila ketani kn attack orang lain..so sapa yg kn join main...aga sja website darkthrone atu..arah www.darkthrone.com and register sja..simple tu..ehehe..siok x ah :P

Sahur @ CHeeZboX





Finally Sahur at Cheezbox.. the sad thing is that inda semua dapat datang and there's no buffet waaaa.... boring eh!! The plan awal nya kn pakai voucher c adi untuk makan buffet di sana, pasal nya kami (me, adi, kasnol and mahadi) kesana the night before tapi buffet dorang dah berpanyap since it was almost 1 a.m. So kami kan cuba lagi lah, we went back there di malam tapi kali ani with shahrizan and azaman but mahadi didn't come pasal nada transport.

Awal nya it was Adi and kasnol who arrive first di sana, then it was me...lepas meet up with adi who was alone time atu pasal c kasnol ke ATM. Adi told me ia kn mencheck what was on the buffet menu..so he went alone while aku duduk sorang..merenung keluar..hehe~ Then after that kasnol came back, ia tanya aku dmana c adi..so i told him " c adi tu tempat buffet ah, cakap nya kn mencheck the menu", so kasnol went there. But then i saw adi came from the opposite direction ehe..rupanya ia bertanya arah one of the pelayan sana. Adi told me that starting today, there's is no more sahur buffet...erghh!!! what bad luck eh..two night in a row kami kesana kn merasa buffet nya...dua2 jua kami kecewa..ehe tapi nda apalah main order sja lah...

The rest was history...shahrizan and azaman datang and we had a long chat pasal zaman2 sekolah menengah dulu..wahhh~ rindu nya..hahahaha... After abis makan and minum, we felt it was not enough so after paying our bill..we went out and then berunding kan lepak mana lagi...again i suggested TK restaurant.. tapi kali ani c adi inda mau sana. So finally adi, suggested arah nasi katok mama di bandar..so we all went there..driving laju ehe.. once we arrive sana..the place was full and was near closing time.. so paksa tukar plan lagi...so c adi cakap d kianggeh saja.. pasal kes malas kan drive..me and shahrizan ikut kereta c adi..ehe jadi boss duduk belakang..ehehehe!! Driver jalan..laaa~

We arrive at kianggeh soon after...kami order minuman panas and sejuk.. sambil atu kami ceta2 panjang and lebar..pasal the old times...especially pasal c waqi and amin...amin carah..amin carah...caraaahhhh~~~*skreetching voice.. hahaha!!

Overall, it was a great night of laughter, good food, drinks and everlasting memories and friendship.

During the exam week/day, 1st paper yang ku resit was DB ingat ku tu..awal pagi ku datang ke ITB buat last minute reading.. tapuk-tapuk tah ku tu arah syndicate room (Orang CIS sja tahu tu dimana tu..ehe) with one of my friend. Time exam atu, inda ku confident langsung since entah blank tia my mind ani..tapi ku bawa berdoa lah..berkat tah jua doa ku atu kali. Syukur!

After abis exam, actually time atu ada career day di ITB..tapi ku nada mood since masih ada one paper to go.. seorang diri tah ku di syndicate room, my mom pun call aku..ingat ku masih tu cakap nya.."Apa tah Exam mu tadi.." then ku ceta kan lah..yang aku inda confident and banar lah takut ku fail wah! my mom pun cakap "owh!! Jangan tah takut..dapat pass tu". At least ada jua word of support from one of my critics..haha!! As usual continue revising for the next paper..and lapas balik rumah..langsung inda ku baca anything..i was so exhausted, i slept till 3Am baru tah ku buat revision balik..and ku awal jalan ke ITB. Once disana, buat last minute reading lagi.. then i saw this past year question..about codings..ku memorize dat coding..with 5 minutes left before masuk tutorial room for the exam. HAHA!! guess what..that question keluar and i manage to answer it..confident banar ku tarus..it was like easy, for the first time i understand programming..ahahha!! lepas abis exam, ku tanya my friends..what question dorng buat..ku tanya seorang2..panya aku seorang sja yang buat that question the rest chose other questions.

March
Not much happening lah bulan march ani...ku masih cuti~ kan berehat ku dulu.. 3 years of studying..my mind was exhausted..nasib inda expired..ahhaha!! Sambil atu..balik-balik ku ke ITB, membayar for the jubah and waiting for my jubah to arrive...actually not my jubah lah..aku menyewa sja time atu.. My size alum ada time atu..so ku have to wait..waiting lagi~laaaa...

Di bulan ani jua, i broke up with my girlfriend..kami sudah inda sehaluan lagi..i still miss her tapi masa ani ia sudah sama boyfriend barunya..well i wish her well lah sja..aku ani bukan jenis kn menyimpan dendam even though im still upset..but i can only move forward and look back of all the mistakes yang ku buat...so i could learn from it.

April
Bila April tiba~ ehe menyanyi tia ku..oppzz haha!! Time ani sibuk lah ni..coz ada events untuk kami seniors di ITB..ada malam rumpun si waja..kira appreciation nite..man it was so boring!! awal ku balik ..langsung nada siok..except for the gurls..man are they hot!! especially yang from Business Department...

Aku pun relieve lah mendangar..finally ada dah jubah ku...ehehe!!

May
Graduation week.. kami buat rehearsal..di ICC..dari pagi smpai tengah hari.. it was really fun..alum lagi graduate dah tia kami bergambar-gambar..iski wah.. kami semua tu...haha!! Ingat kali ku masih..orang dari bahagian protokol cakap.."Pebila DPMM membagi sijil arah kamu.. kamu cakap " JUNJUNG KASIH" and lepas atu kamu salam..and move 3 steps back and tunduk lagi pas atu baru kamu boleh berpusing dan turun" Lepas atu..bercakap tia lagi..."Sebelum kamu duduk bebalik ke tmpt kamu..jangan lupa tunduk kn kepala..walaupun ia inda meliat, lepas atu baru tah kamu boleh duduk" fuh! masa latihan atu pun aku nervous.. bukan apa takut salah wah!!

Finally, the day of the graduation.. awal ku tolak dari rumah takut akhir..pasal tempat ku ani selalu traffik especially arah kwasan Jangsak and bunut.. arah Jerudong pun sama jua tu..tapi at least dapat lapas lah... laju ku drive ke sana..ehe!! After parking apa and tunggu kwn apa..naik bas tah ku ke ICC.. selajur tah masuk and isi attendance..as usual bergambar lagi..tu~ and ceta2 sambil joke around..ehe CIS ani andang ni...no.1 bergambar and becali.. whahahaha!! Then the moment arrive, kami berbaris mengikut position yang di tetapkan sudah masa rehearsal..lepas atu, masuk ke dewan besar planetary hall.. the mood was a bit nervy sdikit..pasal nya banyak orang meliat kami masuk..eyes on us!! we all sat down..sambil menunggu DPMM datang..after dat on with the event..and finally mengambil sijil-sijil HND kami...lepas abis atu..kami yang graduate semua kana suruh keluar ke pintu depan..untuk bergambar dengan DPMM. After that, ia masuk ke kereta nya..and we wave him good bye! Siok eh..dat day..

June - August
Dalam bulan ani not much happening lah..selain sibuk mencari kerja and ikut other events macam pesta kerjaya and test. owh i nearly forgot..ehe this was the month of the creation of my football team B.E.S.T (Bukit Emas Soccer Team). We were unbeaten for the first 3 matches.. but now we've lost 3 games in a row..since our key defender and captain..(im a co-captain since he's away).. is studying abroad..and he'll only be back after his final exams. The only problem with the team is the lack of leadership at the back. aku ani main..position inda tetap yatah paya..skajap holding midfield, pas a2 left back my favoured position is a striker..tapi since kami nada left back..paksa tah jua ku main position atu since aku ani..left footed. So far, i've managed to score one and assist 3 goals.. yang ku goal atu main as a striker..tapi sayang nya defence kami rapuh..so kalah 3-4 the scoreline..

September (Present)
Bulan ramadhan tiba..so muslim around the world are fasting..yeah~ i have an interview on this month as a programmer..and some tests..tapi the big event was reunion with my old school friends at SMB (1996 intake) , 10 tahun inda jumpa..coz we broke up as a class in 1998 so officially 1o years. we had sungkai at Asma Hotel..it was so so siookkkk~~~ kan adi..siok rite..hahaha...

well that's all the recap i have for now..
