PETALING JAYA: It was not meant to be as Malaysia went down 1-2 to Vietnam in the World Cup 2022-Asian Cup 2023 second-round qualifiers at the Al-Maktoum Stadium in Dubai on Saturday.

With the second defeat in Group G, Harimau Malaya are now out of the World Cup contention. They lost 0-4 to United Arab Emirates last week.
