The King of ASEAN is really in the Asian Games football competition

After that, the best performance of ASEAN representatives at the Asian Games only ended in the top four (fourth place).

For this achievement, Thailand has become the largest contributor. In fact, since the 1990s, Thailand has become the "king" of ASEAN football at the Asian Games to replace Indonesia.

Before the 1990s, Indonesia could be considered as the main representative of ASEAN. In nine participations since 1951, Indonesia has been able to be three quarters of the finalists (1951, 1966 and 1970), two of four major (1954 and 1986), once bronze medalists (1958) and once successful in phase 16 (2014)

However, Thailand changed its showcase in the 90s era. White Elephant State is ranked fourth in the 1990 Asian Games editions, 1998, 2002 and 2014.

They were recorded at the 14th Asian Games. In addition to the four finishes in fourth place, Thailand finished five times in the first round (1962, 1974, 1982, 1986, 1994), four appearances in the quarter-finals (1966, 1970, 2006, 2010), and once in the semifinals. (1978)

Then, in Asian Games 2018, Indonesia, as host, will she repeat the hour of glory or re-present the Thailand, or other representatives of ASEAN appear as black horses? Look forward to that.
