National Under-22 squad head coach Datuk Ong Kim Swee has dropped four from the list of 26 players from the squad that leaves to China for three friendly matches from June 8-16 as preparations for the 2017 Kuala Lumpur SEA Games.
According to the Football Association of Malaysia (FAM) in a statement today, the four were dropped after a friendly match against Felda United which ended in a 1-1 draw at the Wisma FAM field yesterday.
Kim Swee had decided to drop goalkeepers Ahmad Syihan Hazmi Mohamed and Danial Ashraf Abdullah from Kelantan, plus Ariff Farhan Md Isa (Kedah) and Raphi Azizan Mariappen (PJ Rangers), all due to injuries," said the statement from FAM.
