Aff suzuki cup 2021 malaysia - LIVE AFF Suzuki Cup 2021

The tournament, supposed to have been held late last year, was delayed a year due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

Junior Eldstal, whose purpose in the side was to provide a shield in front of the defence, was sloppy on the ball and constantly robbed in possession inside his own half as he looked severely off the pace.

Initially, countries such as Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, and Indonesia, were interested in becoming the host of the tournament, but due to the pandemic and its restrictions, Singapore was chosen as the host of the tournament.

Understandably, but perhaps surprisingly given the boldness of its nature, it led to Malaysia coach Tan Cheng Hoe replacing Eldstal after just 27 minutes.
