PETALING JAYA: It’s not wishful thinking. Some of the wounded Tigers in Kim Pan-gon’s Harimau Malaya team believe they can bite back and take down Oman in their return fixture of the World Cup 2026-Asian Cup 2027 second-round qualifier at the National Stadium in Bukit Jalil on Tuesday after suffering a 2-0 loss in Muscat.
With the defeat, Malaysia have dropped to third in Group D. They share the same points as Oman (first) and Kyrgyzstan (second) but are behind on goal difference.
