Papua New Guinea's Flemming Serritslev will approach the second friendly against Malaysia in almost similar fashion to the first meeting between the two sides.

The coach of Papua New Guinea national team saw his side handed a beating by Asian giants, Iran in a friendly played on Friday evening. However, Flemming Serritslev will be going into the Monday's friendly against Malaysia in a much more confident mode given what went on between the two teams in the correponding match played earlier this year in the month of June.
"It's correct we won the first game 2-0. We can treat this game like the second leg of a competition. We expect a very tough game. We expect Malaysia to do everything they can to get revenge for the first match. We are totally prepared," said the Danish coach in the pre-match conference at Wisma FAM on Sunday afternoon.
The former Kolding FC midfielder who has three Denmark international caps to his name, pointed out that his team will most likely play the same way they did in the first match against Harimau Malaysia.
"There will no difference to our approach to the game. We will always try to play our own style of game. When we played at Port Moresby, we played at very high pressure. For tomorrow, maybe we will do a medium or low pressure game. He's [Tommy Semmy] in the squad and I expect him to score like he did at Port Moresby [chuckle].
Serritslev also notes that his team has the physical advantage but stressed that the first game was much closer than the margin suggests. For this upcoming match, Serritslev will be hoping that the lack of match practice would not count against his team.
"The match at Port Moresby was a very even match. Only we took our chances better. The Malaysian compared to our own team, maybe our team is more physical. Many of our players haven't actually played any club or international game since we played Malaysia in June."
The international friendly match between Malaysia and Papua New Guinea takes place at the Shah Alam Stadium on Monday and kick off starts at 3pm. The match is free entrance to the public.
