[PHOTOS] This Thai Player Is Turning Girls Into Overnight Football Fans
This guy is the reason why you absolutely MUST watch the AFF Suzuki Cup Final this Saturday.
Thailand beat us 2-0 in the First Leg Final of the AFF Suzuki Cup 2014 on 17 December, but we might have just found the silver lining in the cloud.
Guys and gals, meet Charyl Chappuis, the super good-looking Thai football player who captured our hearts in Wednesday's game
The 22-year-old, who dons the number 7 jersey in the Thai national team, scored the first goal in Malaysia's defeat against the War Elephants on Wednesday... but we won't hold it against him.
While we might have just started to appreciate his good looks and football skills, the Swiss-born player is pretty much hot stuff on social media, particularly his Instagram account, which currently has close to 300k followers!
Yup, we're not sure if that's a footballer or model we're looking at. Not that we're complaining.
For one, he is a mighty fine male specimen with a smile than can light up the entire football pitch
That winning smile is a natural skill that has been honed since he was a boy, ladies and gentlemen...
... and we can't get enough of it. Whether it's that excited grin he is sporting when he is leaving the airport...
... casually lounging in the pool while exploding a few ovaries, no biggie...
The general consensus* is that a guy in a well-fitted plaid shirt is a close second to a guy in a well-fitted suit, but we digress
*Note: Not scientifically proven.
If you're wondering if there are any pictures of him in a well-fitted suit, the answer is yes. Did you really think we would deprive you of that? ;)
It also warms our hearts to witness the close relationships the 22-year-old hottie fosters in his life
... being a little dorky while hanging out on the beach with his bros...
... or cuddling up with his girlfriend. Yes, you read that right. He's taken.
We apologise for the truth bomb, people.
Can't get enough of Charyl? Then don't miss the 2nd leg of the AFF Suzuki Cup Final this Saturday (20 December 2014) as Malaysia takes on Thailand in an epic final battle.
You can also watch the match LIVE on FOX Sports (Astro Channel 812/832 HD) at 8PM.
For the record, we will of course be supporting the Harimau Malaya, with the additional bonus of having Charyl Chappuis as eye candy for the whole 90 minutes. :D
