Different alternatives?

I would like to share my experience during my football training in Bukit Jalil. I'm a candidate for the Malaysian Women's Team. But I had to drop out from the tournament because of a 3 week injury. Anyways, the women's coach is an ex National Player from China. Although she's stayed in Malaysia for a whole lot of years but she still can't grasp English, what more Malay.
Her English is very broken. Most of the times we can't even understand what she says. But we all have one thing in common. The language of football. Lol. We all understand GOAL! Pass, shoot, kick,cross, dribble and more.
All the coach can say in malay is : Faham? and makan! haha. Makan is important! Though her English is not good, she basically shows us what she wants us to do rather then tell us because its hard for us to understand. Even though there's a language barrier but we still can understand each other through different alternatives. There's always a solution to everything.
-Peace-
