KUALA LUMPUR: Interim Harimau Malaya head coach Tan Cheng Hoe was disappointed after his side lost 0-2 to China in an international Tier 1 friendly at the Zhaoqing New District Sports Centre Stadium in Guangdong, last night.

Cheng Hoe said China’s two early goals made it difficult for Malaysia to recover and forced the coaching staff to change their approach.

He said the team played better in the second half, keeping possession and creating more chances but failed to score.
