The Malaysian blind football team will face South Korea tomorrow in the IBSA Blind Football Asian Championships. If they win, they will enter the semifinals and be one step closer to their dream: qualifying for the IBSA Blind Football World Championships, the "World Cup" of blind football.

KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia’s blind football team gave Asian defending champions Iran a serious run for their money before losing 2-0 at the IBSA Blind Football Asian Championships today.

“I think we really shocked Iran with our on-target try within the first minute,” said coach Sunny Shalesh after the match.
