KUALA LUMPUR, July 24: Iraq's Brazilian coach Jorvan Vieira has slammed the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) for leaving his weary players stranded for hours without hotel rooms.

Vieira said his players waited for four hours at the Prince Hotel lobby in Kuala Lumpur after arriving from Bangkok on Monday before only eight rooms were made available for 31 people.

“We left Bangkok at 7am, arrived at the hotel at 5pm and then waited four hours for only eight rooms,” Vieira told journalists on Tuesday. Then we had to pick up our luggage, we trained at 9pm and my players only had their dinner at 1.30am.”—Reuters
