Myanmar national U-23 football team was defeated by Malaysia 1-2 in
the second match of Mardeka Cup organized by Malaysia Football
Association.
Wenzak's late free kick goal earned the victory for the hosts in the
challenge cup match.
Myanmar took the lead in the match with header by midfielder Nay Lin
Tun, breaking off the influence by the hosts.
Myanmar goalkeeper Pyae Phyo Aung had to make a number of brave saves
to concede no goal to Malaysia in the first half of the game.
Malaysia U-23 boosted their attack in the second half and Myanmar
occasionally made a number of counter attacks. Malaysia influenced the
game in the second half.
Malaysia scored the controversial equalizer from the offside condition
in 64 minute and scored the winner in 78 minute from the free kick.
Myanmar currently collected only one point from two matches and stood
at third place as it had already tied up with Thailand in the curtain
raiser.
