At 6:00 p.m. on December 11 (Vietnam time), the Singapore team welcomed Cambodia at home. This match will be very hot because Southeast Asian fans are waiting for the performance of “Angkor Warriors”. In the first round, the Cambodian team impressed by playing on par with the Malaysian team, one of the “big men” of Southeast Asian football.
The strength of the Cambodian team improved a lot when they had 7 naturalized players including: Yudai Ogawa, Hikaru Mizuno, Takaki Ose (both of Japanese origin), Coulibaly Abdel Kader (of Ivory Coast origin), Rafael Andes Nieto Rondon (both of Japanese origin), Coulibaly Abdel Kader (of Ivory Coast origin), Rafael Andes Nieto Rondon ( Colombian origin) and Mohammed Faeez Khan (South African origin). In addition, they also have many excellent local players, who have been honed through many AFF Cups and SEA Games such as Sa Ty, Sieng Chanthea…
In the confrontation with Malaysia, the Cambodian team had times when they played dominantly, coming back to take a 2-1 lead. The Malaysian team had to rely on Fergus Tierney’s moment of personal brilliance with a beautiful long-range shot to win 1 point.
Therefore, at this time, the teams in Group A cannot underestimate the Cambodian team. As for the Singapore team, they have the advantage of home field and schedule. In the first round, they did not compete so they are still an “unknown” for the Cambodian team. On the contrary, the Lion Island football team closely monitored their opponents to analyze and evaluate, thereby coming up with appropriate tactics to win.
In the past, the Singapore team was stronger than Cambodia, but at this time, the balance of strength between the two sides is more balanced. Therefore, this match is expected to be exciting and dramatic.
The remaining match between the Malaysian team and Timor Leste takes place at 8:00 p.m. on the same day (Vietnam time) at Bukit Jalil Stadium. There is not too much to analyze about this match as the Malaysian team is completely superior. The question now is how many goals the home team wins.
