Thai players starved on European tour for unbelievable reason

Recently, many sources said that Thai players had to go hungry for more than 10 hours while traveling from Georgia to Estonia for a friendly match.

According to Thairath newspaper, the reason for this is because the Football Association of Thailand (FAT) lacks attention to the team's food issues.

As soon as they got on the bus to Estonia on October 15, the Thai players had to go to a fast food restaurant to satisfy their hunger.

Midfielder Channarong Promsrikaew even put food in a plastic bag to bring to the car to eat more.

Previously, due to the closure of the Ukrainian border, the "War Elephant" could not fly from Georgia to Estonia.

They had to travel from Georgia to Latvia, then take a bus from Latvia to Estonia.

Arriving later than expected also caused the Thai team to miss a training session.

After this information, the media in the Golden Temple country criticized FAT for its weakness in choosing opponents, choosing the match time and preparing the team.

The Daily News wrote: "The Thai team's tour of Europe is truly torture. The players have to travel by all kinds of means of transport, from planes, ferries, ships to buses."

During FIFA Days in October, the Thai team also did not have the strongest squad when clubs like Pathum, Bangkok or Buriram did not release players.

Previously, on October 12, the Thai team lost 8-0 to the world's 79th-ranked team, Georgia.

According to plan, on October 17, coach Polking and his team will have a friendly match with Estonia (ranked 115th in the world).
