KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 16 — Negeri Sembilan FC striker Luqman Hakim Shamsudin described his return to the Harimau Malaya squad as a huge blessing after struggling with a serious hamstring injury for over a year.

He said there was no such thing as being late to answer Malaysia’s call up to join the central training camp led by head coach Peter Cklamovski in the run up to the 2027 Asian Cup qualifier against Nepal this Tuesday.
