"Taijin No Sato" by Football Tribe Thailand

by Jedsada Chanapinijwong, the deputy editor of Football Tribe Thailand



First I have to say arigatou gozaimasu to you all. Why I have to say "Thank you" in Japanese? Because nowadays, Thai football fans give and attention to Japanese fiitball! Yes I mean J League, the strongest league in Asia.

After Chanathip Songkrasin became the pioneer who landed in J League last season, this year Teerasil Dangda and Theerathon bunmathan also joined J League, which has made Thai fans more interesed in Japan football.

Theerathon Bunmathan with his new nickname “Boonjung” played for Vissel Kobe against Sagan Tosu but he started only on the bench. Then Takayuki Yoshida gave him a sign to be ready to step on the pitch with 15 minutes left and he showed his dynamics and confidence.

On Saturday, these Thai players faced each other as Sanferse Hiroshima of Teerasil Dangda play against Consadole sapporo of Chanathip Songkrasin. In Thailand, people in Bangkok will gather at Siam Square.

On 28 minutes, the Thai striker found the net first time in J league with the header. Just like that, Teerasil Dangda became the first player who scored in J League while Chanathip Songkrasin seemed a bit complicated with the new style. Mihailo Petrovic in the end replaced him with Shuhei Yomoda.

All Thai player started in their first matches already and one of them scored. As the famous saying goes, “well begun is half done.” We have to wait to see how far they can go, as this is just the first step of “TAIJIN in J league” (TAIJIN Thai people in Japanese).

Birth of Football Web Comic by Football Tribe Korea

by Mihyun Chung, Chief Editor of Football Tribe Korea  My first boss at my first full-time job was this man - this man who is smart, clever, and confident. He never likes yes man, so is always open to challenges. He always protects his staff and presents a very clear vision and direction. He has got all the attributes that any boss would need.  Except that he supports Manchester United.  He is a big Man Utd fan. I still remember him saying "I'm very upset now because that Van Gaal sold Chicharito." It was very clear United was THE TEAM. So when asked which team I supported in Premiership, I did say "Glory Glory Manchester United," while Man Utd is the only team that I hate in England.  Not long after did I figure out he is more than happy with challenges. So I confessed that I do not support United.  Ever since then, every day at work was fun. He loves sarcastic jokes; and he absolutely adores football banter or even trash talks. That i...

The Day Malaysian Boys Made History in China by Football Tribe Malaysia

by Keeshannan Sundaresan, Chief Editor of Football Tribe Malaysia Credit: AFC It was surreal. One day before a massive, massive decider against Saudi Arabia, Malaysian U-23 boss, Datuk Ong Kim Swee universally declared his intention to attack their opponents and go for a win. Best part? His statement was in response to Vietnam’s 1-0 win over Australia, which was yielded through a complete smash and grab performance. I clearly remember talking to a few friends and going: “Is he for real? Did he just say Vietnam’s win didn’t mean much because they were conservative on the pitch? Did he say that just one day before a cruncher against the mighty Saudis?” Malaysian football’s battle with inferiority complex has been ongoing for the last two decades or so, which if there are any individuals who have stood up against it, it’s Datuk Ong Kim Swee. From his mind-blowing team talk at the the 2011 SEA Games to all the young talents that have been moulded under him, Ong ha...

The Man Who Invited Me To The Football “Tribe” by Football Tribe Japan

by Ippei Tsuchiya, deputy editor of Football Tribe Japan We, human beings, have some pivotal moments in our lives. And it often caused by someone who has extraordinary talent or fascinating personality or both of them. In my case, it was 1998, I was seven years old and the year that Japan achieved two very important accomplishments in Japanese sports history. Firstly, Japan hosted Winter Olympic Games in February of that year, and Japanese Olympians won 10 medals in total. Winter sports are not so popular in my home town, but I prefer Winter Olympic Games more than Summer Olympic Games since then. Secondly, Japanese football national team appeared in FIFA World Cup for the first time in Japanese football history. They lost all three group stage games, but they competed with Argentina, there were Gabriel Batistuta, Claudio Lopez and Juan Sebastian Veron, and Croatia, there were Davor Suker, Robert Prosinecki and Zvonimir Boban, bravery and the most importantly they gave m...
