Notes: the Malaysian Tigers was a developmental team of young players, functioning as a
 national B team. The precise designation of the Thai team is unknown, but it was not the
 full Thailand national team (which was at the Merdeka Tournament in Kuala Lumpur). The
 designation of the Singapore team is also unknown, but it is unlikely to have been the
 full national team. However, the Singapore 2-0 Thailand match has been listed by FIFA
 as a full international for several years (though no other match from this tournament has).
