NAM DINH – Muhammad Nur Azfar Fikri Azhar turned super sub when he scored a last-gasp goal to help Malaysia beat Thailand 2-1 for a sensational start in Group B of men’s football in the 31st SEA Games at the Thien Truong Stadium here tonight.
The result allowed Malaysia to avenge their loss to Thailand in the final of the 2017 edition in Kuala Lumpur, which also happened to be the last time these two teams clashed in the biennial Games.
Playing in front of almost 30,000 spectators, Thailand, under the guidance of coach Alexandre Polking, controlled the game in the first half with an aggressive approach.
