YANGON United striker Kaung Htet Soe recently told the media that today’s match between Yangon United and Sagaing United will make it difficult to reach the final of the General Aung San Shield 2019.

The two teams’ 1st leg semi final finished as a 1-1 draw at Monywa Stadium, the home stadium of Sagaing United, on 26 May.

The decisive second leg semi final of the General Aung San Shield 2019 is to be played between the two teams today at the home stadium of Yangon United.

Kaung Htet Soe, the striker for Yangon United and U-23 national team’s footballer, as well, also promised to fully concentrate on the match against Sagaing United.

“We drew the 1st leg semi final of the tourney, but for now we want to reach the final by taking a win. Now, I am readying to show my skills on the pitch”, he said.

Sagaing United is also one of the best teams in both General Aung San Shied 2019 and Myanmar National League, as well, and Yangon is expected to struggle to reach the final. 

“The opponent has a strong team, but we will play our best to bring victory to our fans. We will focus on every moment on the pitch, whether they are weak or strong. 

One more thing is that both teams will compete hard to advance to the final. 

So you all will see a fantastic battle on the pitch”, noted Soe. He then said to the fans, “We all will do the best for our fans and want to thank them for all their support”.—Lynn Thit (Tgi)
