Malaysia's fourth encounter against Vietnam in the last year, this time in the World Cup Asian qualification, ended in another frustrating defeat.
Farizal Marlias - 6/10
The custodian did not have a lot to do, but failed to keep out the one chance that ended separating the two sides.
Matthew Davies - 6/10
A decent outing for the dependable right back defensively, but he was not as dangerous playing up the flank as he had been against UAE last month. Was booked for a cynical challenge in the second half.
Aidil Zafuan - 7/10
The centre back picked up where he left off, with his previous competitive appearance late last year coincidentally against the same side.
