Patient game was Thailand’s secret weapon, says Narongsak

Kuwait City: Narongsak Wingwon said Thailand's patient game gave them the edge to defeat Oman 6-1 in their final AFC Futsal Asian Cup™ Kuwait 2022 Group A fixture on Saturday.

Despite the scoreline, Thailand were made to work hard for their six goals at the Saad Al Abdullah Hall by a determined Oman side, who were looking to sign off with the first win of their campaign.

KL City’s Lambert relishing ‘experience of a lifetime’ in AFC Cup™

Kuala Lumpur: Declan Lambert has described Kuala Lumpur City FC’s run to the final four of the AFC Cup™ 2022 as one of the best experiences of his life as the side from the Malaysian capital gear up for their Inter-Zone final against Uzbekistan’s PFC Sogdiana on Wednesday. 

It’s been quite the year for Malaysia-born Lambert, who joined KL City at the beginning of 2022 and has been a key figure in the debutants’ maiden continental campaign in which his side won the ASEAN Zone before defeating India’s ATK Mohun Bagan in the Inter-Zone semi-final. 

Soon after that result Lambert received his first call-up to the Malaysia national team, scoring in the penalty shootout victory over Thailand in the King’s Cup on his debut just a week ago.
