Mohammad Shafie bin Haji Mohammad Effendy (born 4 August 1995) is a Bruneian international footballer who plays for Tabuan Muda and the Brunei national football team.[1] Adept at playing on either flank or as a striker, he is one of the future stars of Bruneian football ever since being selected to his first international tournament at the age of 16.[2][3]

Club career

At club level, Shafie plays for Tabuan Muda, a league team that was formed by the NFABD to prepare for international competitions.[4] They finished fifth in the 2015 and 2016 seasons of the Brunei Super League.[5] He previously played for the team's predecessor Brunei Youth Team in 2011, which were the league team of the Brunei under-16s in 2010.[6]

International career

Shafie has been playing exclusively with the national team setup ever since graduating from Brunei's Sports School.[7] He was a member of the Brunei under-21 side that was triumphant on home soil at the 2012 Hassanal Bolkiah Trophy, starting three games out of six.[2]

A year later, Shafie travelled to Thailand with the Brunei under-19s for the 2014 AFC U-19 Championship qualification, where they lost all three games.[8] A similar story happened with the under-23s at the 27th SEA Games football tournament in Myanmar two months later, where Shafie only played twice.[9]

Shafie missed out on the 2014 Hassanal Bolkiah Trophy but returned with the under-23s for the 2016 AFC U-23 Championship qualification held in Indonesia in late March 2015.[10] Scoreless and goalless, the same team headed for the 28th SEA Games.[11] Shafie was ever-present although the Young Wasps lost all five of their games.[12]

Shafie made his full international debut on 3 November 2015 versus Cambodia in a friendly match that finished 6-1 against Brunei.[13] He was selected for the 2016 AFF Suzuki Cup qualification matches held in Cambodia in October. He started the first game against Timor-Leste and scored the winner in a 2-1 victory.[14]
