Kuala Lumpur: FAM president Tunku Ismail Sultan Ibrahim should not look at the national team's drop in Fifa world ranking (Malaysia's worst ever) as a failure that made him "want" to step down from his post.This was stated by former FAM vice president Datuk Seri Ridzuan Sheikh Ahmad, who hopes that Tunku Ismail will not be too hard on himself, and avoid taking the drastic move based on just one aspect, reported the New Straits Times.Ridzuan said it is not fair for football fans to pass judgement on Tunku Ismail's work because he has only been in office as FAM president for almost a year (March 25 marks a year of Tunku Ismail as FAM president).ADVERTISEMENT "Tunku Ismail should remain as FAM president because he has worked very, very hard, specifically in fulfilling the promises he has made," said Ridzuan.Stay up-to-date by following Daily Express’s Telegram channel.
