The 41st Merdeka Tournament were played from the 4th to 15 September 2013. Malaysia Under-23 team earned a huge boost ahead of December’s Sea Games when they edged Myanmar 2–0 in the final. It was Malaysia’s 12th title in Asia’s oldest tournament (overall until this year edition), with the second title specifically for the Under-23 side, since its inception in 1957.
