"It's the players who have to take the risk" - Davies on NK trip

Malaysia defender Matthew Davies also gave his early take on newly-appointed Malaysia head coach Nelo Vingada.

With Malaysia's Asian Cup qualifiers opener against North Korea looking more and more likely to be played within the hermit kingdom's borders following the Asian Football Confederation (AFC's) decision earlier this month, the possibility of having to make the trip there is understandably something that has unnerved Pahang captain and Malaysia international Matthew Davies.

According to the defender, he and his Malaysia teammates are prepared to travel to North Korea for the match, but would prefer if they did not have to.
