Fan who sold motorcycle to watch Harimau Malaya play in Doha lauded for his patriotism


KUALA LUMPUR: The fighting spirit of the Harimau Malaya players who fought hard in the last Group E match against South Korea, despite realising that the chance to progress to the next stage had long been buried, deserves praise.

But the same praise must be given to a fan of Harimau Malaya who still roared despite knowing there was as much as no ghost of a chance for the national squad to advance far in the Asian Cup, but who was still willing to travel over 5,000km and gambled to be part of that historic moment.
