Football Association of Malaysia end Myanmar Probe

Malaysia will not be making a further protest to the Asian Football Confederation over Myanmar's alleged use of overage players at the AFC Under-22 Asian Cup qualifiers.

The Myanmar Football Federation had responded by claiming that the players in question - one of which was alleged to be captain Kyaw Zayar Win - are, in reality, younger players who bear the same name as the players who would be too old to compete.

In a press conference in Kuala Lumpur on Friday, the Football Association of Malaysia (FAM) stated that due to it being unable to take any evidence from third parties and an inability to question documents supplied by the Myanmar government, it would now not be making any further approaches to the AFC.
