The War Elephants practice for the first time in preparation for the LP Bank Cup.

This training session lasts approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes, focusing on physical recovery and adjustment of playing relationships.
Before training, Kana Kham-yok said, “I feel happy every time I get to be selected for the Thai national team. And I feel especially happy to be selected for the senior Thai national team. Now I am confident in my personal performance. Only the first goal has not come this สมัคร ufabet season.”
“I will try my best and am ready to practice with many great seniors. It should help me improve my level. Being selected for the national team is exciting because everyone has good skills and has come together. I am very happy. If I get the chance, I will try my best. I want to help my seniors follow the tactics that the coach has set. Being selected for the national team this time is also a surprise. I would like to ask the fans to follow me and the national team.”
“I also hope to gain experience playing for the senior team because the senior team will likely encounter something different from before. When I found out I was on the list, I was happy for myself.”
Nicholas Mickelson said, “We expect and believe that we have a chance to win both games and it is a test of the team, which is a good opportunity and we see a chance to win. I know that Russia is a good team. Most of the players, even though they are in the domestic league, the quality of the league is considered high, so we cannot underestimate them. As for meeting Vietnam, they are our competitors. I myself have met Vietnam before when I played in the U23 team. I remember that Vietnam had the same quality as us and had high energy in playing.”
“As for playing with Jonathan Khemdee again, I think it’s a good opportunity and I enjoy playing with him. Jonathan has also done well for the club. Personally, I’m in 100% physical condition right now after playing continuously in the league and there are no problems.”
