The AIRMARINE Cup 2019 is the first edition of the AIRMARINE Cup, an international football tournament with four countries participating. It is played on 20 and 23 March 2019 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Ananth S. Nathan, Executive Chairman of AIRMARINE (Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd. takes the tournament as a national social responsibility of a corporate entity to step forward for the Malaysian national football team to gain more international break for the exposure and to advance in their FIFA ranking points.[1][2]

Faiz Nasir, made his first international goal debut in the Malaysia versus Afghanistan.[3][4][5]

Oman won the tournament after beating Singapore 5–4 through penalty shoot-out for their first title.[6][7][8]

Participating nations

[edit]

In earlier February 2019, it was announced that Oman, Singapore and Solomon Islands had been invited to participate in the 2019 Airmarine Cup hosted by the Football Association of Malaysia (FAM).[9] On 1 March 2019, Solomon Islands announcing their withdrawal as the tournament date is coinciding with their league schedule, leading FAM to calling Afghanistan as a potential replacement candidate.[10] The same day, Afghanistan confirmed their participation and the draw are being announced on 4 March.[11][12][13]
