Malaysia qualified for TIGER CUP Semi finals !!!




Tonight's game was breath taking . It was nice to see the malaysia spirit still alive in our national football team - mediocre they may be but it is our team after all- TEAM MALAYSIA !!!! Please NEVER compare the quality between our national team and the EPL / SPANISH LA LIGA / ITALIAN LE SCUDETA teams .. our national team plays crap football but that should not be the reason NOT TO SUPPORT our TEAM !!! VIVA MALAYSIA !!!!!

It was a good turn-around. We were down by 1-0 at half time . Out of nowhere , Khalid Jamlus ( our current chief striker ) scored 2 important goals. I suppose this is his best contribution so FAR as his previous games were really appauling.Especially against Myanmar when we played really crap stuff. The striker i adore - Akmal Rizal is down injured - recuperating from his surgery.

I am a hardcore Mesia fan , and Tiger cup brings a lot of memories. I was there in KALLANG ROAD STADIUM , SINGAPORE in 1996 when Malaysia lost to THailand 1-0 in the first edition of TIGER CUP. Azman Adnan was our chief striker then but he was a dissapointment in the finals.

It was good to see them win last night , was not in the stadium but i watched it with passion at home. I was JUMPING LIKE MAD when Khalid scored the second goal. What a relief !!! YESSS !!! even though i must say the young THai team displayed a poor game - that should not be the reason to undermine our team... :)

For the semis.. i will definitely make it a point to be present in the stadium. Eventhough our current team in this competition is not the best team assembled , but for the Malaysia Boleh spirit , we must all be in the stadium to cheer !!!
