    Coaches of Asian teams attended a post-World Cup FIFA conference and technical meeting in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, on Thursday.

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE (English): Ange Postecoglou, Coach, Australia,

    "Absolutely, for Australian football I think we are certainly growing. We obviously came to the Asian federation quite a few years ago now. And for us to now making an impact in the region with the understanding of how difficult it is. But it is great for Western Sydney Wanderers to be able to achieve that (qualifying for the Champions League final), we were runners-up at the Asian Cup four years ago, so yeah from our perspective we really want to start making a huge impact and hopefully see the game grow in our country."

    SOUNDBITE (English) Uli Stielike, Coach, South Korea,

    "It's a time problem. This is my biggest problem. I hope that when we have two weeks like we will have before we will go to play our first game in Australia then in this time we can introduce more our philosophy. But my first experience in the two games I worked with, played against Paraguay and Costa Rica, we were very positive."

    SOUNDBITE (English) Alain Perrin, Coach, China,

    "I think sure we are not the best team in Asia, we are now our ranking is ninth, so we have our challenge. Because our target is to go out from the group stage. The first game is important so we have to be ready to play hundred per cent to fill the gap between us and the top teams. But I think the teams are very close and we can even if you play together as a team, with a good mentality, tactically we can compete with the other teams."
