Despite a dominant 6-0 victory over Singapore in their final Division 1 Group A match, Malaysia narrowly missed out on the Fifa Asean Cup 2026 final due to an inferior goals scored tally compared to Indonesia.

Both teams ended with seven points and a goal difference of plus nine, but Indonesia's 11 goals secured them the top spot following a 9-2 victory over Bangladesh.

Malaysia's prolific forward Bergson da Silva scored a hat-trick, but the Harimau Malaya will now play Vietnam in the third-place playoff in Jakarta.

BANDUNG, Oct 2 — Malaysia missed out on a place in the Fifa Asean Cup 2026 final despite recording an emphatic 6-0 win over Singapore in their final Division 1 Group A match at Si Jalak Harupat Stadium here, last night.

The Harimau Malaya were edged out by Indonesia on goals scored after both sides finished with seven points and an identical goal difference of plus nine.

Indonesia, who defeated Bangladesh 9-2 in the other Group A match at Gelora Bung Karno Stadium in Jakarta last night, scored 11 goals overall compared with Malaysia’s nine to secure top spot and a place in the final.

In last night’s encounter, Malaysia made a blistering start when South Korean referee Kim Jong-hyeok awarded them a penalty following a Video Assistant Referee (VAR) review after Singapore defender Ryhan Stewart brought down Fergus Tierney inside the box in the fourth minute.

Newly naturalised forward Bergson da Silva calmly converted the spot-kick four minutes later, sending goalkeeper Izwan Mahbud the wrong way with a shot down the middle for his second goal of the campaign.

Singapore responded strongly and came close to drawing level in the 14th minute when Song Ui-young dribbled past Malaysia captain Dion Cools, only for goalkeeper Ahmad Syihan Hazmi to deny him from close range.

Ahmad Syihan was again called into action six minutes later, producing another fine save to keep out Kyoga Nakamura’s effort from outside the penalty area.

Malaysia doubled their advantage in the 26th minute through Stuart Wilkin, who finished off an excellent Manuel Hidalgo delivery after the newly naturalised midfielder beat three Singapore players inside the box.

Bergson struck again in the 62nd minute, intelligently finishing Arif Aiman’s cross from the right to extend Malaysia’s lead.

Substitute Paulo Josue made it 4-0 in the 76th minute after turning home another assist from Arif Aiman, before fellow substitute Syahir Bashah added the fifth goal in the 86th minute.

Bergson completed a memorable hat-trick in second-half stoppage time to seal a resounding six-goal victory, which ultimately proved insufficient to send Malaysia into the final.
