Khuon Laboravy reveals what’s behind his recent poor form

Boeung Ket Angkor’s forward, Khuon Laboravy, is recently not in his best form for both club and national team, and this could cause him lose his chance in Cambodia Starting XI. The left-footed forward has been played as a substitute in many matches of the national team by the South Korean head coach, Lee Tae Hoon. The 28-year-old was also benched in Cambodia’s tough 2-1 win against Laos in the opening match of AFF Suzuki Cup qualifiers last night. The player has also admitted that he is not in his good form like before due to three factors, but insists that he need to work much harder to deal with it.

“It [his poor form] is because of my age, weight [gain weight], and injury. I must keep training much harder and get enough rest as I am getting old,” Laboravy told TheMorning.

Despite not being in his fine form, Laboravy managed to score nine league goals for Boeung Ket Angkor and won the league title with them last season. In last night’s match when Cambodia defeated Laos 2-1, he came on in the half way of the second half to replace Sos Suhana and created a few chances to score for his side, but he unfortunately couldn’t find the back of the net.
