Datuk Ong Kim Swee was relatively pleased with the improvement his U22 boys showed despite a nightmare start against China U22
Malaysia Under-22 side narrowly lost 1-0 to China U22 in a friendly match played at Xiangtan Sports Centre Stadium on Saturday.
An early goal conceded before a minute of the game had been played proved to be the goal that decided the outcome of the match.
Datuk Ong Kim Swee made changes in the second half by bringing on Jafri Chew and Danial Amier for N. Thanabalan and Amirul Hisyam as Malaysia looked to find the equaliser but none came.
