PETALING JAYA: Malaysia’s naturalised English player Lee Tuck could be excused for being a distracted man ahead of the Harimau Malaya’s high-stakes Group B game against Singapore in the AFF Mitsubishi Cup tomorrow.

The 34-year-old midfielder had incurred the wrath of many Pahang supporters after he signed for Kedah, as they deemed him ungrateful for leaving the Elephants as it was his former team that helped him gain his naturalised status.
