The War Elephants are undeniably one of the most successful teams in the South East Asian Football category, boasting an impressive seven AFF Championship titles. In 2007, they secured their first and only AFC Asian Cup, and they are poised to make another strong run for the cup this year, despite facing formidable opponents such as Japan, Korea, and Iran.

Under the leadership of Head Coach Alexander Polking, who led the team to victory in last year's AFF Championship, the War Elephants are confident in their ability to perform at the highest level. Despite the increased difficulty tier this year, they are determined to rise to the challenge and emerge as worthy contestants.

While the memory of their 8-0 loss to Georgia still lingers, Polking and his team are determined to learn from their mistakes and tighten all loose ends. They are ready to face their opponents with renewed vigor, including a familiar team whom they once celebrated victory against.
