PETALING JAYA: The Malaysian Tigers, powered by a Razie Abdul Rahim hattrick, got off to a rousing start in the Asia Cup when they hammered Oman 7-0 in Jakarta.

Playing in their first tournament after three years, Malaysia settled in quickly through Razie’s penalty corner conversion in the sixth and 13th minutes. The defender then found his third goal through a penalty stroke in the 19th minute of their Group B match yesterday.
