5 Malaysian Players Who Are a Threat to the Indonesian National Team in the 2020 AFF Cup, Number 1 Top Scorer: Okezone Bola

TIM Indonesian National Team will face Malaysia on the last matchday of Group B AFF Cup 2020. Competing at the National Stadium, Singapore, Sunday (12/19/2021), at 19.30 WIB, Garuda is expected to achieve positive results from this classic match.

However, the Indonesian national team should also be vigilant. Because, Malaysia is certainly very ambitious to win because that is the only thing that can take them to the semifinals. Meanwhile, Shin Tae-yong’s troops only needed a draw to qualify from the group stage.

Several Malaysian players must be considered by the Indonesian national team because they can be a threat in tonight’s match. Here are five Malaysian players who are a threat to the Indonesian national team, according to: Okayzone.

5. Dion Cools


Dion Cools is a naturalized player who strengthened Malaysia in the 2020 AFF Cup. Dion Cools currently plays for Danish club, FC Midtjylland.

Playing as a central defender, Dion Cools will be a strong wall in the Malaysian defense. After missing the previous three matches, the Belgian-Malaysian bloody is predicted to appear against the Indonesian national team.

4. Guilherme de Paula

Guilherme de Paula is another naturalized player in the Malaysia squad. The 35-year-old striker has yet to score in the 2020 AFF Cup. However, that bad record may be broken against the Indonesian national team.

More often playing from the bench in the 2020 AFF Cup, Guilherme certainly wants to prove his capacity. The match against the Indonesian national team, which is Malaysia’s rival, became the right stage for Guilherme.

3. Luqman Hakim

Luqman Hakim gained the confidence to play from the beginning in the last two Malaysian matches. The 19 -year -old striker has yet to score for Malaysia, but he is very talented.

His talent brought Luqman Hakim to play in the top caste of Belgian football with KV Kotrijk. He must be watched out by the Indonesian National Team.

2. Khairul Fahmi

Khairul Fahmi is a senior player in the Malaysia squad. He was part of the Malaysian squad when they won the 2010 AFF Cup. In the final at that time, the 32-year-old goalkeeper performed so well in defending against Malaysia that Indonesia failed to win.

Khairul Fahmi’s performance could be another scourge for the Indonesian national team tonight. Conquering Khairul Fahmi will certainly be a test for the Indonesian national team’s attacking line.

1. Safawi Rasid

Safawi Rasid is a Malaysian player who stole the show in the 2020 AFF Cup. How not, he is the temporary top scorer of the 2020 AFF Cup with a collection of four goals. He shared first place with Bienvenido Maranon Morejon (Philippines) and Teerasil Dangda (Thailand).

After scoring one of Malaysia’s goals when silencing Cambodia 3-1, Safawi Rasid went crazy by carving a hat trick when Malaysia beat Laos 4-0. Safawi Rasid will certainly be a real threat to the Indonesian national team tonight. If not careful, he could become a nightmare for the Garuda Squad.
