Ruventhiran on the cusp of realising dream to win a medal in football

Set to soar: Winger V. Ruventhiran can emulate his idols K Gurusamy and Mahali Jasuli to play in the SEA Games if he is selected for the team to Cambodia.

PETALING JAYA: During his days at Petaling Jaya City, national Under-22 winger V. Ruventhiran used to talk about the SEA Games with K. Gurusamy and Mahali Jasuli.

Gurusamy and Mahali won the SEA Games gold medal twice in 2009 and 2011, and it was no surprise to see Ruventhiran asking about it and dreaming of playing on that stage.
