I was shocked by the difference between the physicality of the Aussies and our players. Not even talking about the quality of the players. It was like a bunch of 5 footers playing against 7 footers. Reminded me how important physicality is in this game.

Physicality is a really big issue lacking for south asian teams. Idk if it's just genetics or their lifestyle but unless they solve this issue, they can only dream of playing in the world cup

It’s genetics, even a couple of decades ago malnutrition was a big issue here. The average height for men in Bangladesh is 5 feet 5/6 inches, that's just too low for football.

So is it genetics or is it malnutrition?
