Introducing Malasia FC, A Club Based in Montevideo, Uruguay Inspired By Malaysia! : 61

Introducing Malasia FC, A Club Based in Montevideo, Uruguay Inspired By Malaysia! : 61

I'm sure most football fans are well aware of South American clubs named after others places from around the world. From Barcelona SC in Ecuador to Argentina's Arsenal to Everton based on Chile; they all have a fascinating story to tell.

However club that is named after Malaysia? Well that is something else.

A few weeks back, a tweet from @hafeizh29 went viral because he managed to discover a team all the way from Montevideo, Uruguay named Malasia FC. Malasia is actually the Spanish translation for Malaysia.

We knew this will be an interesting story, hence why we decided to reach out to them via Instagram and asked if they would like to feature in our podcast. The answer was an instant yes, and they were truly honoured to be our guest.

What was the inspiration behind the name? How is their journey so far? We tried to cover everything on this episode. We would like to wish our sincere thanks to Santiago for responding to us on Instagram and making all the necessary arrangement and also to Facundo and Gonzalo for taking their time to speak to us.

All About Social, Recreational, Grassroots & Amateur Football With Khal from Padang Bola Sepak: 57

All About Social, Recreational, Grassroots & Amateur Football With Khal from Padang Bola Sepak: 57

The focus on football is often always on the top flight and professional aspect of the game. However, what is often forgotten, is the other end of the pyramid; the social, recreational and amateur landscape of football.

As we all know, football is just a game, and in the words of coach Gordon Bombay of the Mighty Ducks, games should always be fun. When talking about fun, you won't find anywhere better than having a kickabout with a group friends.

Hence why on this episode, we've got the best person to talk about this subject. Khal is an avid football activists and has been a prominent voice in promoting social, recreational and amateur football.

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: Thailand's National Team Head Coach, Alexandré "Mano" Pölking : 56

In the recent AFF Suzuki Cup, not only Thailand have regain their place as the Kings of South East Asia after winning the tournament, they have also played some of the most scintillating brand of football we have seen in this region.

This happened after the War Elephant have been enduring a torrid 2021 in which they didn't win any of their remaining World Cup qualifier games, thus missing out on the third round.

The brainchild behind this renaissance is none other than the head coach Mano Pölking, who took the job just a few months before the tournament.

On this episode, we asked Coach Mano on the background of his appointment for this job, the challenge that he had to undertake, expectation came with it and much more.  

We would like to wish our sincere thanks to Coach Mano for taking his time to speak with us, it was a real honor for us to have him as our guest.

Aspiring To Be A Keeper? Let's Hear It From New York Red Bulls Goalkeeping Coach, Jyri Nieminen : 54

Aspiring To Be A Keeper? Let's Hear It From New York Red Bulls Goalkeeping Coach, Jyri Nieminen : 54

From our playground days experience, the most obvious thing we know is that not everyone wants to be a goalkeeper. Hence why, that role is somehow rather reserve for one of our co-host, Bala.

However in the context of modern football, we have also learned a great deal that being a good goalkeeper is not for everyone. Hence, not only it takes a special kind of talent, but also a special kind of coaching to become a top one.

We are honored and privilege to have Jyri Nieminen, who is the goalkeeping coach for the New York Red Bulls.

We tried to touch on every single aspect that evolves around goalkeeping coaching, be it technique and skills, or emotional and mental strength.   

If you have as aspiration in becoming a keeper, then this episode is for you!

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: Riding High With Captain KL City, Paulo Josue: 51

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: Riding High With Captain KL City, Paulo Josue: 51

KL City FC is riding high on a 10 game unbeaten streak since drawing with defending champions JDT back in April and is currently sitting comfortably at sixth position in the Super League. Though they were unlucky to be drawing most of them it is still a remarkable run for a team that just got promoted this season.

Playing a big part in this is the team's captain marvelous Paulo Josue!

This season will be Josue's fifth year playing for the City Boys. Ever since arriving from Brazil in 2017, he has been an ever mainstay in the team and this year, he was given the honour of taking over the captain armband. As evident from KL's recent run, Josue has played an outstanding role both on and off the pitch.

So we took the opportunity to chat with Josue, we wanted to understand what has been going behind the scene that has led to KL resurgence this season and also in his own words, what makes a leadership example.

EXCLUSIVE: Kedah & Armed Force Legend, Marlen Alex James; Scoring For Fun & Missing Nasi Goreng: 50

EXCLUSIVE: Kedah & Armed Force Legend, Marlen Alex James; Scoring For Fun & Missing Nasi Goreng: 50

When mentioned the name Marlon Alex James to Malaysian football fans, three things come to mind. Goals, goals, and more goals. 

Ever since he arrived here in 2004 to play for the now-defunct side Selangor MK Land, the Vincetion international striker will always find the net one way or the other. Thus cementing himself as one of the greatest goalscorers in the Super League. 

His goals have been played an important role for many reasons but there is none bigger than helping Kedah to clinch an unprecedented back-to-back TREBLE (Super League, FA Cup, and Malaysia Cup). A feat that has yet to be matched to this day.

His love for Malaysia is so much that when foreign players were allowed back in 2012 (Football Association of Malaysia barred foreign players from competing in the Malaysia Super League starting from 2008 season), he immediately made a quick return. Marlon James, suit up for the Armed Force team and went on to have several more fantastic years before deciding on hanging on his boots for good.

Despite being in the middle of a vacation in Rhodes Island, he still found the time to speak to us and share his fondest memories both on and off the field.  For this, we would like to extend our sincere gratitude, thank you so much, Marlon James.

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: Bayern Munich Women's Team Sporting Director, Bianca Rech: 48

Mentioned the word FC Bayern Munich, it doesn't take long for any football fans to recognize as it is one of the strongest brand in world football. But just much do we know about its women's team?  

It was a sweet season for the club as they manage to seize the Frauen-Bundesliga title after four season, from their arch rivals VfL Wolfsburg. The club was also very unlucky not to take part in the UEFA Champions League final after getting knocked out by Chelsea in the last four. 

Like their men's counterpart, the women's team is a major powerhouse both in Germany and Europe, so it was a huge honour for us to talk to the team's sporting director, Bianca Rech. 

We wanted to understand just how the women's department is run, the support it gets from the top hierarchy and  the continuous challenge on the women's game from within and outside the club itself.

LIM TEONG KIM: Harimau Malaya Gave Their Best, Just Not Good Enough & No To Naturalized Players: 47

We're honored to have Mr Lim Teong Kim back again on the podcast. 

Previously he was featured in our podcast Episode No.28, discussing about his role at the National Football Development Programme plus many more. 

This time, he wanted to share with us his thought on Harimau Malaya's recent performance at the World Cup/Asian Cup qualifier.

He also had some fiery words with regards to Football Association of Malaysia's new policy of opening to naturalized footballers to play for the National Team. 

Surely most football aficionados in Malaysia are aware, Mr Lim Teong Kim is someone who is known for speaking his mind but we would also wish to remind our listeners to do enjoy listening to this episode with an open mind.

AFC World Cup Qualifier - Malaysia's Run So Far, A Look Into The Upcoming Match Against Thailand: 45

It wasn't a good start for Malaysia against United Arab Emirates in the AFC zone World Cup qualifier. Losing 4-0 in Dubai has thrown in a lot of questions, ranging from team selection to gameplay strategy to the rationale of selecting naturalized footballers. Which only makes our upcoming assignment against Vietnam and Thailand even more challenging. 

Understanding how crucial the last match against the Elephant Warrior, we decided to bring back Gian Chansrichawla (who had featured previously in our Thai football special episode), to give some insight into what can Harimau Malaya expect when facing our regional rival.

Kakijersi, a Malaysian kit brand has been in the business for almost half a decade. This year they hit another milestone when they became the official kit supplier for not one but TWO professional teams (Perak FC and Negeri Sembilan FC) in the Malaysian Football League. 

It was a huge honour to have the co-founder and chief operating officer, Nor Akmar Ahmad as a guest on our podcast. We wanted to know just how Kakijersi got kickstarted, how did they manage to secure the deals with Perak & Negeri Sembilan and also the future of Kakijersi.

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: Women's Football Special With Ash Hashim A.K.A Futbolita : 30

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: Women's Football Special With Ash Hashim A.K.A Futbolita : 30

Over the last 30 years, women's football has been growing from strength to strength. However, there is still a lot of ongoing issues especially when it comes to recognition and respect that is on par with the men's game. Also, there is a lack of development on the women's game in the South East Asia region.  But this isn't just about women playing the game, their role has expanded beyond the football pitch; from media to writers to some, the president of their own club.  To explore this subject, we have The Female Football Voice herself, Ms Ash Hashim, also known as Futbolita.  We also dabble a bit on the latest development in Spain's La Liga.

Selangor, A Trip Down Memory Lane with Shahril Arsat and David Mitchell: 26

If you grew up with Malaysian football in the 1990s, we don’t have to tell you just how big Selangor was back then. Historically, Selangor was always a successful side but in the nineties, they began to flex their muscle, unlike anything that was seen up to that point.

Joining us as the special guests, we manage to romp in two legendary figures who played a pivotal role in making Selangor what it was back then; the Red Giant!

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: How Did Liverpool Throw-In Themselves To Become Premier League Champions? : 21

After a 30 years long wait, Liverpool has finally won a top-flight league (and their first Premier League) title. Playing a huge part in this success (apart from everything about Jürgen Klopp) is Thomas Gronnemark, a throw-in specialist coach from Denmark. 

We are extremely proud to have Mr Gronnemark who is the latest guest in our podcast to share with us his knowledge on what could arguably be the least expected aspect of football but how it can also put into good use to maximise a team’s potential of winning matches.  

We have explored every angle to ask Thomas Gronnemark all important questions you need to know on what is the art of “throw-in” in football. So this is one episode you don’t want to miss.   

Once again, a huge honour to have Thomas Gronnemark on board and we would like to thank him for taking his time to talk to us.

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: Stephen Constantine, Football’s Most Travelled Manager: 20

Stephen Constantine has been a globetrotting gaffer ever since he embarked on taking his first assignment with the Nepal National Team in 1999. Since then he has gone on to coach at clubs and countries in Europe, Africa and Asia over the past 20 years.

Of course, he is notably known for his two stints as the Indian national team head coach. He guided the Blue Tigers to their best run, breaking into the FIFA Top 100 ranking and also qualifying the 2019 AFC Asian Cup.   He has also his own autobiography, From Delhi to the Den, which chronicles his journey as a football coach. The book was nominated for the Football Writers' Association Book of the year in 2018. I am proud to say that it is a personal favourite of mine.

As football’s well-travelled coach, Constantine has left an incredible mark everywhere he has worked. It was a surreal feeling and honour for us to have hosted him in this episode. We would like to say a big thanks to him, for taking his time to talk to us.
