13 Malaysia will face world indoor champions Austria in the semi-finals tomorrow while world No. Wales, who will not feature in the Olympics (Britain will compete as a team), gave the Malaysian defence a torrid time. Forward Tengku Ahmad Tajuddin Tengku Abdul Jalil had a golden opportunity to give Malaysia the lead in the very first minute but he muffed the chance. And four minutes later, Malaysia increased the lead via a well-taken reverse-stick attempt by Faizal Saari which hit the top net. “We also defended well as Wales failed to score from the three penalty corners they earned in the match,” said Sukri.
