A month on from Harimau Malaya's historic win against Vietnam, sports journalist T. Avineshwaran joins us to reflect on the victory and the conversations that emerged from the match, including the team's tactical approach and composition, with many new players making their debut, as well as the fallout from the match, including claims made by rival fans.

Avinesh also gives us a quick preview of the Malaysian Super League, one month before the start of the new 2025/2026 season - from teams that have left the league to the newcomers in the form of both clubs and new players.
