Tried and tested
Kekwa

HT 🇲🇾0-0🇻🇳

HC 🇦🇺Cklamovski-6 tactic ok but execution pending
Starting XI
GK Syihan - 5 nothing much to do
RCB Matthew Davies © - 5 so far okok
CB Facundo Garces - 6 block out Vietnam
LCB Jon Irazabal - 5 so far okok
RWB Dion Cools - 6 one shot kena tiang
LWB Corbin Ong - 5 hardworking
CM Nooa Laine - 4 need to buckle up
CM Hector Hevel - 6 all over midfield
RW Arif Aiman - 6 best solo run saved by goalie
LF Joao Figueiredo - 6 best player with header on target
CF Rodrigo Holgado - 4 heavily marked and tackled by Viet

2nd half probably will unleash Malaysia most expensive player in history RM12m Machuca!

Laine and Hector really made Vietnam kekwa

Yeah let’s be real. We’ve failed that’s the short & easy answer.

We’ve failed to spot & develop talents from our own people because of years of piss poor planning & through my own experience, lack of meritocracy in team selection be it at junior or senior level. That’s the longer than short answer.

You forgot about the great Maradona, Rui Barros, Roberto Carlos, Romario, Paul Scholes.

All of them were below 1.70m.
Rui Barros was only 1.58m.

So yeah i agree with you skills and teamwork is more important here.
