The AFF Suzuki Cup Championship 2020 has finally commenced with fans all across Asia rejoicing the return of the competition, know who can win the Golden Boot award
After getting postponed twice, the biggest football tournament across Southeast Asia is back with a bang on 5th December 2021. We have witnessed some terrific performances from exceptional talents last season and hopefully we will see them represent their nations once again this time.
So here’s taking a look at the top 5 players who are most likely to net the most amount of goals and end up taking the golden boot award for the AFF Suzuki Cup 2020.
AFF Suzuki Cup Championship 2020: Top 5 Players For The Golden Boot Award And Top Goal Scorer
- Nguyen Tien Linh
Vietnam’s Linh currently has 9 goals in 28 international appearances for his nation and will be looking to add to this number during the ongoing competition. At 24, he possesses a knack to score goals, having scored 7 goals for Vietnam during their in progress World Cup qualifying campaign.
- Ikhsan Fandi
Only 22 years of age, Ikhsan is the son of Fandi Ahmad, who is a national phenomenon himself. Fandi is extremely talented and I believe it would not be false to say that he might be Singapore’s key player, given his impressive attacking ability is what his team so desperately needs.
- Safawi Rasid
The Malaysian team have a left-footed wizard within their ranks who was a part of the Johor Darul Ta’ zim side that won eight consecutive Malaysia Super League titles in a row. Rasid is known to perform when it’s essentially required of him in big games and hopefully he will do so this time round as well.
- Suphanat Mueanta
Muenta is just 19-years of age and has made it to this list, already proving what he is capable of doing at the tournament this year. He plays as a striker for Thai League 1 club Buriram United and was even voted as the best player in ASEAN football, born on or after January 1, 2002.
- Soukaphone Vongchiengkham (Laos)
Soukaphone will be playing his fifth Suzuki Cup this time and is his country Laos’s third-highest goal scorer of all-time. He is also their fourth-most capped player at present.
