* Comment before the match
Before the final match, all three teams, Singapore, Cambodia and Malaysia, still have a chance to win the second ticket to the semi-finals in Group A. But when the “Angkor Warriors” have to face Thailand, this ticket is most likely only It is also a competition between two former AFF Cup champions.
Malaysia and Singapore (with 4 points) will have a “life and death” match at Bukit Jalil (Kuala Lumpur). With a score advantage, the Singapore team only needs to draw to win tickets to continue. Meanwhile, Malaysia must win 3 points to qualify for the semi-finals.
When in a corner, Malaysia will play extremely determined to win. Coach Pau Marti and his team are also playing better with each match. They were disappointing in the first two rounds when they had to work very hard to draw with Cambodia and win against Timor Leste. But in the confrontation with the strongest team in the group, Thailand, the Malaysian team almost transformed. Even though they have to play at Thailand’s Rajamangala home ground, Malaysia still has a good position, making “watching the fight” very difficult. If they improve the quality of decisive passes, Malaysia will be much more dangerous. Therefore, Singapore needs to be careful.
Malaysia needs to win 3 points against Singapore and at the same time Cambodia does not win against Thailand, then the team nicknamed “Tigers” can continue.
