Harimau Malaya got off to a winning start in the 2027 Asian Cup Qualifier, with a comfortable 2-0 win against Nepal. New head coach Peter Cklamovski did not waste time to stamp his authority, playing with three at the back, and showcasing a playing style that’s fast and energetic. Sports journalist from The Star, T. Avineshwaran joins us on the show to share his thoughts on the match, and what he made of Cklamovski’s tactics, team selection, and coaching setup.

Later on the show, we also discuss the latest developments in the Malaysia Super League, including the status and future of Kedah and Sri Pahang, as well as the potential fallout from the scrapping of the MFL Cup and how it’ll affect clubs and their young players.
