FITRI Shaari flew back last night to Dhaka, Bangladesh to help Malaysia beat Pakistan 3-2 in the round robin of the Asia Cup on Wednesday. "It was a really tough game, compounded with the fact that Pakistan started hitting my team mates when they could not beat us with skills. The Asian brotherhood was shoved aside by Pakistan in their bid to win points," said Fitri. It was a penalty stroke, and if Fitri had missed, Malaysia would have shared points with Pakistan. It was a bruising encounter, but in the end, the sweet victory might just see Malaysia playing in their first Asia Cup final.
