Negeri Sembilan FC (NSFC) will take on the Timor Leste national team in an International Tier 2 Friendly Match on 9 November at the Tuanku Abdul Rahman Stadium, Paroi, during the ongoing FIFA international window.
This fixture presents an ideal opportunity for The Jangs to maintain momentum and team fitness during the temporary break in the Malaysia Super League season.
Head Coach Mohd Nidzam Jamil emphasized that the friendly is not solely about the result, but rather about long-term development and readiness for the remainder of the campaign.
“This is an international friendly, and our goal is to continue playing good football while achieving positive outcomes. What matters most is keeping our players competitive, maintaining match fitness, and giving valuable minutes to those who have had fewer opportunities this season — especially in an international tempo,” explained Nidzam.
He added that the encounter would also serve as a platform to evaluate tactical understanding and team cohesion within the squad.
“We want to ensure every player remains prepared when the league resumes. At the same time, we’ll explore several new combinations and focus on sharpening both our attacking and defensive transitions. Every player will have the chance to gain experience from this match,” he added.
NSFC also called on supporters to continue showing their trademark passion and loyalty, understanding that the main focus of this friendly lies in continuous growth and preparation for the challenges ahead in the Super League.
