Soldadu (U) Mohammad Shafie bin Haji Mohammad Efenddy (born 4 August 1995) is a Bruneian international footballer who plays for MS ABDB of the Brunei Super League and the Brunei national football team.[1] He is adept at playing on either flank or as a striker.[2][3]
Shafie started his club career with the Brunei Youth Team in 2011, playing in the Brunei Premier League II.[4] He then laced up for IKLS FC in the 2014 Brunei Premier League.[5] The following year, he played for Tabuan Muda, a league team that was formed by the NFABD to prepare for international competitions.[6] They finished fifth in the 2015 and 2016 seasons of the Brunei Super League.[7]
Shafie moved to Indera SC in 2017.[8] He scored his first two goals for Indera on 10 September against Menglait FC which finished 4–0. On 26 September, Shafie scored a hattrick in a 6–0 victory over Najip I-Team.[9] He contributed a total of 11 goals for Indera who finished third in the league.[10]
Shafie signed for professional club DPMM FC of the Singapore Premier League on 13 February 2018.[11] He made his debut on 24 May in a 1–1 draw against Young Lions as a 77th-minute substitute, providing the assist for Adi Said's equalising goal three minutes from time.[12]
Shafie finished the 2018 Singapore Premier League with 11 appearances under Renê Weber, but struggled to even make the bench under Adrian Pennock who prefers wing-backs supplying a front two and bringing on Razimie Ramlli as a super-sub role. At the second half of the season, Shafie made way for Hakeme Yazid Said in the DPMM squad.[13]
At the start of the 2020 Brunei Super League, Shafie signed with defending champions MS ABDB, which coincided with his drafting into the Royal Brunei Air Force.[14] However he transferred to DPMM FC II at the behest of ex-ABDB coach Rosmin Kamis who was put in charge of the team shortly after the Piala Sumbangsih loss to Kota Ranger FC on 8 February.
Shafie has been playing exclusively with the national team setup ever since graduating from Brunei's Sports School.[15] 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.[16] 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.[17]
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.[18] Scoreless and goalless, the same team headed for the 28th SEA Games.[19] Shafie was ever-present although the Young Wasps lost all five of their games.[20]
Shafie made his full international debut on 3 November 2015 versus Cambodia in a friendly match that finished 6–1 against Brunei.[21] 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.[22]
In July 2017, Shafie captained the under-23s for the 2018 AFC U-23 Championship qualification that took place in Yangon, Myanmar.[23] The Young Wasps lost all three games. The same story happened at the 29th SEA Games held in Malaysia a month later, where ever-present Shafie and compatriots suffered four defeats out of four.[24]
Shafie was selected for the national team's 2018 AFF Suzuki Cup qualification matches against Timor-Leste in early September.[25] He played the first 45 minutes in a 3–1 defeat away from home in the first leg in Kuala Lumpur.[26] Brunei were knocked out 2–3 on aggregate.[27]
Despite yet to make an appearance in the 2019 season for DPMM, Shafie was in contention for a place in the national squad to face Mongolia at the 2022 World Cup qualification matches in July. However he pulled out of the two-legged tie due to unspecified reasons.[28]
In December 2022, he was selected for the national team in the 2022 AFF Mitsubishi Electric Cup and featured against Indonesia in Kuala Lumpur in a 0–7 loss.[29] A year later, he was also involved in the national team setup for the 2026 World Cup qualification without making an appearance.[30]
