“Ah, that’s why tomorrow. This is a total evaluation. We already know that there is all the language. Yes, we must discuss directly, if yesterday there are still coaches, if the children are not yet, we still haven’t talked directly, the coach first is we too, there is a portion,” said Taufik.

“We also can’t go directly to the players as well as what, there are coaches for the days. Now we ask, not accountable, like reward, well, this is what to do with the coach, tomorrow is answered all of that,” he said.

“From the results tomorrow there is already a decision. What is this month? June. A month, yes,” said Taufik.
