VIENTIANE (25 Aug 2013) – While the Laos national Under-23 team begins their preparation for the SEA Games with a centralized training at Huayhong Sports Training Centre, the U19 squad has had to cancel their friendly against the United Arab Emirates last night.
A total of 28 players have been selected from the recently concluded Hoang Anh Gia Lai (HAGL) Lao Premier League 2013 although the absence of a handful of players like Keoviengphet Lithideth (Ezra FC), Kanlaya Sysomvang (MPWT) and also retired Paseudsak Souliyavong will be a cause for concern.
In the meantime, the friendly between the Laos U19 and their counterparts from the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has been called off due to technical difficulties.
“I will try to arrange another team for a friendly match and we hope to face a strong team sometime soon,” said team manager Lamnao Singto.
