Football: Liverpool to play in Malaysia
English Premier League giants Liverpool will play Malaysia, the current ASEAN champions, in Kuala Lumpur on July 16.
The announcement means Liverpool will join leading English sides Arsenal and Chelsea in touring football-mad Malaysia in July as they warm up for next season and tap the lucrative Asian football market. The three English Premier League teams will play at the 87,000-capacity Bukit Jalil Stadium in the capital Kuala Lumpur and are expected to draw fans from across the region. Liverpool then leave for China after their three-day stay in Malaysia. Moreover, Arsenal recently announced that they will play pre-season matches in Malaysia and China in July.
