Syamer not ready to give up semi-final hopes yet

Two matches in and still no win for Malaysia at the 30th Southeast Asian (SEA) Games held in Philippines. The latest a 1-0 defeat to Philippines after only managing to draw 1-1 against Myanmar in an earlier game. With only a point to show after 50% of the group matches played, Malaysia faces an uphill battle to reach the promised land that is the semi-final stage.

Thus far it would be very difficult to say that Ong Kim Swee's had played anywhere near what is expected of them and that fact isin't lost on midfielder Syamer Kutty Abba.
