Int Friendly: Japan - B&H (30 Jan 2008) Well, I have yet to see Japan’s squad, but as I heard Bosnia are facing some major problems ahead of this match and new coach Kodro will be forced to field a bunch of second/third-choice players! From what I know, two biggest Bosnian stars Sergej Barbarez(Bayer Leverkusen) and Hasan Salihamidzic(Juventus) have both retired from international football and they would be missing anyway! But, the biggest problem for B&H is the fact that a number of players have withdrawn from the squad: both regular goalkeepers Kenan Hasagic(Istanbul) and Almir Tolja and many others: Berberovic(Litex), Bajic(Koblenz), Nadarevic(Zagreb), Papac(Glasgow Rangers), Rahimic(CSKA Moscow), Krunic(FC Moscow), Bajramovic(Schalke 04), Misimovic(Nurnberg), Grlic(Duisburg) Maletic(Partizan), Salihovic(Hoffenheim), Ibricic(Zagreb), Muslimovic(Atalanta), Dzeko(Wolfsburg)! Only two players from the initial squad will be included: Spahic(Locomotiv Moscow) and Hrgovic(Hajduk Split)! I found the offer at BetAndWin only, though some other bookies may be offering it as well.However, Japan(1.60) at any price could be a good deal under the current circumstances! |
