Malaysia out to settle score with NZ in Sultan Azlan Shah Cup opener  


PETALING JAYA: The Malaysian hockey team have some unfinished business to settle with New Zealand as they start their 2025 Sultan Azlan Shah Cup campaign against the Kiwis today.

The Speedy Tigers recently fell to New Zealand on home soil during the Nations Cup in Kuala Lumpur, going down 4-3 in the group stage in June. At last year’s Sultan Azlan Shah Cup, New Zealand had also downed Malaysia 3-2 to secure the bronze medal.
