| Skipper Hariss Harun (14) is a center-back these days |
Beating Malaysia is sweet, although we should have been more aggressive in the match that saw us beat the auld enemy 2-1 at Kallang last evening (26/7).
The lack of aggressiveness was what I told almost everyone I bumped onto during and after the game which also saw national interim coach Nazri Nasir maintained his 100% record against Malaysia.
Like I told a friend, I was wondering if Hariss Harun is being utilized more as the center-back these days that saw our lack of commanding presence in the middle of the park?

| Ikhsan's brace sunk Malaysia |
As we witnessed how the Harimau Malaya's more swift and intense movements were all over the Lions' domain at some parts of the game that saw Ikhsan Fandi was reduced to an isolated figure up front on a few occasions?
And we had Lady Luck to thank when the Malaysians did not take their chance and even struck the crossbar from the spot-kick attempt before their equalizer in the 57th minute through Liridon Krasniqi to bring some cheers to their supporters.

| Hassan Sunny has been outstanding |
Nonetheless, like said, a win over Malaysia is always a sweet one especially pleasing for "superman" Hassan Sunny whose heroics last night helped to exorcise the ghost of that ill-fated AFF Suzuki Cup match against the same opponents at the same venue years ago.
Still, we need that commanding figure in the midfield to like what Nazri once did for the Lions to dictate the game momentum to our favour.
