Youth and sports minister Hannah Yeoh says whether the stadium is used this Tuesday will depend on Harimau Malaya and FAM.

Harimau Malaya goalkeeper Ahmad Syihan Hazmi Mohamed was seen trying to restore a patch of grass that came out during last night’s match against India at the Bukit Jalil National Stadium.

“However, it is not the same as natural sunlight. Nonetheless, the board is confident that the issue can be overcome and that the patches will fully recover in time for the World Cup qualifiers,” it said. The board said rainy weather last week also did not help. However, it said it is satisfied with the new pitch and its drainage system.

She said Tunku Mahkota of Johor Tunku Ismail Sultan Ibrahim had expressed his concerns about the field’s readiness to host matches at this time.
