But the winning goal came in the 93rd minute when a cross from substitute Syafik Ismail was not dealt well by Thailand’s defence and another substitute Nur Azfar Fikri Azhar prodded the ball past Thailand’s keeper Kawin Thamsatchanan. That 10-men advantage proved helpful for Malaysia as they dominated the second-half and got their reward in the 61st minute when striker Ahmad Danial Ahmad Asri scored the equaliser by tapping in a cross from captain Mukhairi Ajmal Mahadi with his thigh. Thailand got the first goal of the game in the 33rd minute when striker Patrik Gustavsson’s brilliant move beat three Malaysian defenders, and he had the easiest task of putting it past Azri Ghani.

The national team were forced to make a substitution for the left-back position in the 29th minute when Muhammad Safwan Mazlan replaced the injured Muhammad Hairiey Hakim Mamat and Thailand capitalised on the situation to open the scoring four minutes later.

With a minute remaining, Singapore did finally get on the scoresheet when the Laotians' failure to clear their lines from an attack down the line allowed Glenn Kweh to pounce on a loose ball and smash a shot into the back of the net -- although it did look like it would be a mere consolation. Singapore did have their chances throughout the game with Shah Shahiran's deflected drive coming back off the bar, while Khairin Nadim forced a smart save down low from Laos goalkeeper Keo-Oudone Souvannasangso, although Zaiful also did play his role in ensuring the Lions were still in the contest with a handful of decent stops. Singapore's hopes of a medal in the men's football tournament of the 31st Southeast Asian Games have been dealt a blow right from the off, although it could have been far worse as they came from two goals down to draw with Laos 2-2 in their Group B opener.

Malaysia strike at the death to down record champions Thailand in ... (ESPN)

Malaysia are off to a winning start at the 2021 Southeast Asian Games after beating record 16-time gold medallists Thailand 2-1 in dramatic fashion.

Just when it looked like a draw was on the cards, Malaysia would finally snatch when another industrious move down the right saw Kawin initially do brilliantly to deny Hadi Fayyadh from close range, although he was helpless to prevent a composed Azfar Fikri Azhar from collecting the loose ball and forcing a follow-up effort over the line with the last meaningful kick of the contest. With the numerical advantage, Malaysia eventually equalised a minute after the hour mark as a determined Mukhairi Ajmal forced his way free down the right before whipping in a cross that Danial Asri managed to divert past Kawin Thamsatchanan with his knee. As he received possession just inside the area with his back to goal -- and surrounded by three opponents -- Gustavsson somehow managed to spin and wriggle his way free before getting enough on his shot to send it trickling past Azri Ghani.
