Although football is the country number one sport, their performance these past years made Malaysia football lags behind other Asians country such as Japan, Korea, Australia even Thailand. Why could this happen? Where are the gold era of Malaysia that had achieved in the 1970's? Are Malaysia lack of good players such as Soh Chin Aun, Ghani Minhat or Mokhtar Dahari?
