Media coverage [edit ]

Incidents and controversies [edit ]

During a group pit between Singapore and Malaysia at the Singapore National Stadium, irate Singaporean fans began throwing bottles of water system and toilet rolls on the pitch and players gate tunnel at the goal of the match due to what was seen as terribly decision-making by Oman referee Ahmed Al-Kaf, who awarded the malaysian side a penalty kick resulting in an advantage for them. [ 20 ] other incidents occurred soon during the inaugural semi-final between Malaysia and Vietnam in Shah Alam Stadium, where some of the malaysian fans were seen pointing green laser lights on the field, as recorded on the match video in television television camera. [ 21 ] The laser incident is a good continuation from malaysian hooligans, as it besides happened during the former edition of AFF Championship semi-final against Vietnam and in the concluding against Indonesia in 2010. [ 22 ] [ 23 ] At the end of Malaysia 1–2 loss to Vietnam, some malaysian hooligan fans began attacking vietnamese fans, resulting in injuries. [ 21 ] The hooligans rushed to assault vietnamese fans, who tried to flee and had no intention of fighting back. Bottles, smoke bombs and other dangerous objects continued to get thrown even after the Royal Malaysia Police arrived at the scenery to quell the scuffles. [ 24 ] This was heavily criticised by the vietnamese side for the rioting shown by some of the malaysian supporters. As a leave, the web site of the Football Association of Malaysia ( FAM ) had been hacked in a denial of serve fire, possibly from Vietnam. [ 25 ] other malaysian supporters in concert with the Malaysia Minister of Youth and Sports, Khairy Jamaluddin condemn the bully fans attitude and has offer their apologies to all vietnamese fans, adding that five of the perpetrators had been arrested. [ 26 ] [ 27 ] Another nine people ‘s was arrested for the same umbrage between 11–12 December. [ 28 ] The Philippines team received a death threat before their 2nd semi-final peer against Thailand. Sources say the threat has something to do with the scuffle during 1st branch between Filipino defender Amani Aguinaldo and Thai striker Adisak Kraisorn, which led to Adisak being red-carded and suspended for the 2nd peg. [ 29 ] In the semi-final between Malaysia and Vietnam, the Vietnam had won the first-leg in Malaysia with a 2–1 score. however, in the second-leg play in Hanoi, Vietnam lost 2–4, frankincense losing 4–5 on aggregate with Malaysia advancing to the finals. After that kill, the Vietnam Football Federation ( VFF ) launched a probe into the get the better of, citing likely match-fixing due to the apparently apathetic performance of the players compared to the first-leg. [ 30 ] however, the AFF said that the peer was not fixed and went on to say that through Swiss-based sports integrity specialist Sportradar, no unusual bet had taken place during the match. [ 31 ]
