The Malaysian national team are nicknamed the Tigers, as the tiger is a national symbol of Malaysia. Their main regional rivalries are against [[Singapore national football team|Singapore]] (which are nicknamed the lions) and [[Indonesia national football team|Indonesia]]. ==History== ===National Team=== Before the establish of [[Malaysia]] in [[September 16]] [[1963]], the Malaysia national football team is known as Malaya national football team. The team is very well known in the early 1950s to 1960s as one of asian football giant along with [[Korea Republic national football team|South Korea]]. Malaya biggest achievement in football is becoming the bronze medalist in 1962 [[Asian Games]] held in [[Jakarta]] after defeating South Vietnam 4-1. After the establishment of Malaysian federation in [[September 16]] [[1963]], the team until today is known as Malaysia national football team. The glory of this team continue after the establish of Malaysia. The team qualified for [[Football at the 1972 Summer Olympics|1972 Olympics]] in [[Munich]]. Two years later, Malaysia winning their second bronze medal in [[1974 Asian Games]] after defeating North Korea 2-1. The team continue its glory after qualify twice in a row for the AFC Asian Cup in 1976 and 1980. Then Malaysia made second appearance in [[1980 Summer Olympics|1980 Olympics]] in Moscow but boycott the tournament. The glory seems to be ended in 1994 as Malaysian football was involved in one of the biggest corruption in the country. Many star player like [[Matlan Marjan]] was involved the corruption that totally destroy Malaysia football. Most Malaysian fans said the corruption is one of the reason why Malaysia cannot achieve its glorious day like in the 1970s to late 1980s. ===The Allan Harris era=== In December 2000, [[Allan Harris]] was the second big name to be brought in to coach the Malaysian national side after Frenchman [[Claude LeRoy]]. Harris came with strong credentials, having assisted [[Terry Venables]] at [[FC Barcelona]]. Midway through his tenure with the national side, he was told to take over the National Under-23 team and as a result, youth development became his responsibility. When he guided Malaysia to the bronze medal in the regional [[SEA Games]] competition, he was derided by sections of the local press for having low expectations. Despite doing a good job with the minimal resources at hand, Harris was constantly under pressure to produce results. His contract was not renewed when it ended in 2004. ===The Bertalan Bicskei managership=== In the second half of 2004, [[Football Association of Malaysia|FAM]] selected [[Bertalan Bicskei]], former Hungarian goalkeeper and national coach, to succeed Allan Harris. Coaches such as [[Bobby Houghton]] and [[Dragoslav Stepanovic]] had been serious contenders for the position of Malaysian head coach before the FAM finally settled on Bicskei. Bicskei led the national side to third place at the regional [[Tiger Cup]] competition, but was demoted to youth development duties by FAM for his actions during a friendly against [[Singapore national football team|Singapore]] in [[Penang]] on June 8 2005. Bicskei, disgusted by the standard of officiating, threw a bottle onto the pitch before confronting a Singapore player. In September, 2005 the contract was terminated after mutual agreement. The reason was that Bicskei tried to assure international friendlies for the national team, but the Football Association of Malaysian had different views.<ref>[http://www.origo.hu/sport/magyarfoci/20050918bicskei.html Bicskei Bertalan]</ref> ===Recent history=== Despite the efforts of the FAM in organizing high profile matches for the national side such as the ones against [[Manchester United]] and [[Brazil national football team|Brazil]], interest for the national side has generally been low. The Malaysian national side reached the semi-final stage of the [[2007 ASEAN Football Championship]], losing to [[Singapore national football team]] on penalties after playing out a 2-2 draw over two legs. ====Asian Cup 2007==== Malaysia participated in the 2007 AFC Asian Cup as co-hosts along with Vietnam, Thailand and Indonesia. They were placed together in Group C with [[China national football team|China]], [[Uzbekistan national football team|Uzbekistan]] and [[Iran national football team|Iran]]. They lost all three matches, including losing 1-5 to China and 0-5 to Uzbekistan. With an aggregate score of 12-1, Malaysia became the only team that finished the tournament without any points. This resulted in a nationwide furore, which led to the resignations of head coach [[Norizan Bakar]] and FAM officials [[Tengku Abdullah]] and [[Khairy Jamaluddin]]. [[B. Sathianathan]] was selected to replace Bakar after winning the [[Merdeka Cup]] tournament with the Malaysian Under-23 side. ====2010 World Cup==== Malaysia were assigned to Pot B of the [[2010 FIFA World Cup qualification (AFC)]] and were drawn against [[Bahrain national football team|Bahrain]]. They exited the competition at the first hurdle after being defeated 4-1 on aggregate. ==Competition Records== ===World Cup record=== {{col-begin}} {{col-2}} {| class="wikitable" style="text-align:
