It goes without saying I too celebrated Malaysia’s tremendous win against Indonesia in the World Cup qualifying game on Sept 5. When Mohamadou Sumareh (left in main pic above) touched the ball over the line seven minutes into added time, Harimau Malaya edged a potentially vital 3-2 win over their regional rivals.
On top of that, the winning goal was delivered by somebody who is less jaguh kampung (village hero), more jaguh pendatang (immigrant hero). Mohamadou was born in Gambia, has no Malaysian parents, and was only naturalised in early 2018.
