Youth and Sports Minister will continue appealing against Malaysia Cup suspension

The Malaysian Youth and Sports Minister Dato' Sri Reezal Merican Naina Merican has expressed his support for the continuation of the 2020 Malaysia Cup, in his response to a question posed in the parliament on Wednesday, November 11.

This year's competition had been unilaterally postponed by the National Security Council (MKN) on Monday despite having just kicked off the weekend prior with the round of 16, a decision that disappointed many who are involved in the country's professional football.

In answering Bachok member of parliament Nik Mohamad Abduh Nik Abdul Aziz's question, Reezal stated that he wants the matches to be played out.
