Will U23 Thailand overcome U23 Malaysia?
Comments on U23 Malaysia vs U23 Thailand
After an impressive group stage, U23 Malaysia entered the semi-finals of the 2023 Southeast Asian U23 tournament with high confidence.
However, in the end they had to accept a humiliating defeat against the reigning champion U23 Vietnam.
In that match, U23 Malaysia appeared to be stuck in finding a way into the goal of the "Golden Star Warriors".
Meanwhile, the defense of the "Tigers" could not withstand the waves of U23 Vietnam's attacks and as a result, they conceded 4 goals.
This defeat also shattered the dream of winning the championship of the black and yellow team.
But they still have to continue fighting in the third place match, thereby regaining some honor before saying goodbye to the tournament.
On the opposite side, the situation of U23 Thailand is not much better than the opponent.
Despite being highly rated, U23 Thailand lost 1-3 to U23 Indonesia in the semi-finals.
This is even a defeat that the Thai people are completely convinced of.
In this match, the home team appeared to be stuck in attack. Meanwhile, their defense played very loosely.
Back to the third place match with U23 Malaysia, this is definitely not an easy opponent for the War Elephants.
In addition, coach Issara's team is currently in low spirits and it is very difficult to revive.
But in many aspects, U23 Thailand is still better than U23 Malaysia. Therefore, it will not be surprising if they win against the yellow and black team.
Predicted result U23 Malaysia vs U23 Thailand: 1-2
Expected lineup
Malaysia U23: Bin Rahalim, Shamsul Fazili, Rakesh Munusamy, Umar Nik Aziz, Haziq Kutty Abba, Kamal Akmal, Ikmalrizal Anuar, Aliff Izwan Yuslan, Sahar Rezwan, Syahir Bashah, Mohs Shahar.
U23 Thailand: Siriwat, Thanison, Songchai, Kitichai, Phantharnit, Nethitthorn, Warinthon, Kritsada, Chukid, Natcha, Kasidit.
