Kelantan and Terengganu are all out to reach last 16 of AFC Cup

1. Malaysian football continue its slow progress after winning 2 SEA games and 1 AFF cup, but this time through their club side.

2. Not so many fans realize how important a continental competition as afc cup could contribute to their national team progress internationaly. AFC cup indeed a second tier competition in Asia, just like its european cousin in Europa league. But for a developing football nation like Malaysia, we need as much continental exposure as we can.

3. For tonight clashes involving two Malaysia's promising club side, i hope they can give their 100% commitment to grab the full points. Both team providing more than 10 players to the national set up, it is intesting to see progress they could possibly make, and how far they could go in this competition.

4. Winning mentality is vital in this kind of tough continental challenges. The more they play internationaly, the more complete players they will be. For some reasons, Malaysian clubs refused to play in this competiton for the last 2 seasons. But now, with new generations coming through, states and clubs have change their policy and start looking for fresh challenge abroad.

5. I am standing behind all clubs that representing Malaysia in AFC cup. And tonight, I wish Kelantan and Terengganu can go through the last 16 of the AFC cup.
