The duel between Tajikistan and Malaysia in the 90th minute ended goalless. So that the winner is to be determined through the 11-meter football drama.
Tajikistan had a chance to kick first. Akhtam Nazarov failed to insert the ball into Malaysia’s goal. Nazarov’s crop-style shot was too weak for the keeper to recover in the center after a fall.
Dion Cools, who became Malaysia’s first executor, intended to direct the ball to the goalkeeper’s left side, but the round skin hit the post.
After Vakhdat Khanonov gave Tajikistan the lead, Muhammad Nazmi Faiz advanced as Malaysia’s second executor. Nazmi’s shot was blocked by goalkeeper Rustam Yatimov.
