The Youth and Sports Ministry is still considering the type of incentive or reward to give to the Harimau Malaya squad for emerging as runners-up in the Asean Football Federation (AFF) Suzuki Cup 2018 recently.
Its deputy minister, Steven Sim, said their achievement was the result of the training and programme the players had undergone.
“Although we did not lift the cup, still they are champions in the hearts of all Malaysians, especially the football fans.
“They played extremely well in the championship. The type of incentive to be given out will be announced once its finalised,” Sim said at the Parliament lobby today.
Vietnam lifted the cup after beating Malaysia 3-2 on aggregate in the final, with the first leg ending 2-2 at the National Stadium in Bukit Jalil on Dec 11. The Golden Dragons won the return leg 1-0 at the My Dinh Stadium, Hanoi, on Dec 15. - Mkini
