The decisive confrontation of teachers and students Keisuke Honda and Myanmar is decisive for the ticket to the semi-finals of the 32nd SEA Games for both. And finally Myanmar beat host Cambodia 2-0.

After drawing 1-1 with the Philippines, the situation was difficult for K. Honda’s teachers and students and the match just ended on the evening of 7-5 Cambodia lost 0-2 to Myanmar.
When being held 1-1 by the Philippines, Cambodia U-22 was under great pressure, even the President of the Cambodian Football Federation, General Sao Sokha, brought his chair to bet “if Cambodia U-22 is eliminated right after the group stage I will resign.” And this situation is probably the date of General Sao Sokha’s resignation.
In fact, a period of Cambodian football was too trusting in a group of Japanese experts, in which K. Honda both worked as an online coach and found a club to play and direct online.
If Cambodian football did not give everything to a group of Japanese experts, everything would be different.
Coach Felix Dalmas is on the way back. After the 32nd SEA Games, coach Keisuke Honda had to hand over his job to Coach Dalmas to take care of both the national team and Cambodia U-22.
General manager K. Honda is no less, but he does not focus on the job, but the training is only for horseback riding to see flowers. If Coach Honda was wholeheartedly devoted to the job, everything would be different.
Coach Honda still works without pay, according to Japan’s secondment regime.
Coach Honda with the role of general manager and has authority in both the national team and the national U-22, but lack of depth leads to disorienting team lines.
If Cambodia U-22 is eliminated right after the group stage, the 32nd SEA Games will be less hot and less fun.
And if Cambodia U-22 is eliminated, the first person to leave the chair is President Sao Sokha of the Cambodian Football Federation.
As for Coach Honda, after the SEA Games, regardless of the achievements, the job will be transferred to Felix Dalmas. In the previous match, Indonesia continued to beat East Timor 3-0.
