Young Tigers, the under-23 (U-23) Malaysian football squad, has qualified for the 2024 AFC U-23 Asian Cup to be held in Qatar next year
Malaysia secured the spot in the upcoming Under-23 Asian Cup in Doha, Qatar, in spite of failing to finish as the Group H winner and earn an automatic slot, thanks to some good fortune.
Malaysia edged out Iran on disciplinary criteria to emerge as one of the top four second-placed teams after both sides were tied with three points each from two matches, on goal difference and goals scored.
