to Malaysia in the dramatic return leg in Malaysia on December 20.
Hosts Malaysia fought back from their 2-0 first-leg deficit to lead 3-0 on the

However, their strong defence to keep the score intact was broken by Chappuis, who made a goal on the 82th minute and Chanathip on the 87 th minute giving Thailand a 4-3 aggregate win.
Nearly 90,000 supporters on the Jalil stadium hoped their home team will have pulled off another great escape after they overturned a 2-1 first-leg deficit in the semi-final against Vietnam by winning 4-2 in Hanoi but magic did not come this time./.
