Asian association football rivalry From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Indonesia and Malaysia men's national football teams are sporting rivals and have played each other over 50 matches. It is one of Southeast Asia and Asia's rivalries, and is one of Asia's best known football rivalries.[1][2] The heated political conflict between the two countries in the 1960s transmitted disease to the football field. The infamous "Ganyang Malaysia!" statement put forward by Indonesian "Father of the Nation" and first president Sukarno in a 1963 political speech in Jakarta is considered an encouragement for the Indonesian team before matches against Malaysia.[3] Matches involving the two countries, whether in Jakarta or Kuala Lumpur, are always crowded with spectators. When the match takes place, there are often controversial incidents: two fans died in 2011 in a stampede during a Southeast Asian Games final between the under-23 teams of Indonesia and Malaysia in Jakarta.[1] The two teams most recently met in the 2020 AFF Championship, with Indonesia winning 4–1.
