Malaysia Beat Indonesia 3-0
I am proud to become a Malaysian, I felt really happy when Malaysia beat Indonesia 3-0 yesterday night in the first leg finals of Suzuki Cup. Before this Suzuki Cup was call as a Tiger Cup and the famous country always win it is Singapore and Thailand. Malaysia is waiting 14 years to get and win another international cup and hofully we will win this Suzuki Cup. I thinks that the Malaysian football is improving just like our golden days where Malaysia is qualified for the olympic games in Moskow USSR but Malaysia boycott the game because USSR attack afganistan. We as a Tamparulian must support Malaysia National Team and we will beat Indonesia to lift up the Suzuki Cup. Below is the full report of the games adapted from Bernama.

KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 27 (Bernama) -- Malaysia will go to Jakarta well cushioned after beating Indonesia 3-0 in the first leg of the 2010 AFF-SUZUKI Cup final at the National Stadium in Bukit Jalil here Sunday night.Mohd Safee Mohd Sali was the Malaysian hero, scoring two goals, in the 59th and 71 minutes. Mohamad Ashari Samsudin's contribution came in the 67th minute.The return match will be played at the Gelora Bung Karno Stadium in Jakarta this Wednesday to decide who will lift the cup.Playing before a crowd of 85,000, Malaysia started aggressively, launching a series of attacks. The Indonesians were no pushoevers, and had a fair share of the ball as they pushed foward.About ten minutes after the break, with the match goaless, the atmosphere became tense when Indonesian coach Alfred Riedl complained to referee Toma Masaaki of Japan that a laser beam had been directed at his goalkeeper.
The game was stopped for five minutes to allow the situation to cool. Indonesian fans threw mineral water bottles into the field while Malaysian supporters hurled fire crackers.The two sides became involved in a close tussle, but the charges of K.Rajagobal prevailed when Safee Sali scored Malaysia's first goal.Eight minutes later, Mohamad Ashari Samsudin, who replaced Amirulhadi Zainal, made it 2-0 with a close range shot off a pass from Norshahrul who eluded three defenders.
Mohd Safee nodded in the third goal from a pass that Mahalli Jasuli delivered from outside the penalty box.Rajagobal said at the post-match press conference that he was very satisfied with the performance of his team."In the first half, the players were more defensive. During the break I told them this was the time for us to obtain a good advantage to take to Indonesia," he said. Riedl noted that the final first-leg was a difficult task for his team because of the scoreline."The Malaysian first goal was the turning point for the Indonesian team as they lost focus on their game. I think there is a little chance to win it in Jakarta but we need to take risks," he said.
