The 2023 Piala Sumbangsih (also known as Malaysian Charity Shield) was the scheduled 38th edition of the Malaysian Charity Shield, an annual football match played between the winners of the previous season's Malaysia Super League and Malaysia FA Cup. It took place at Sultan Ibrahim Stadium on 24 February 2023.[1] As Johor Darul Ta'zim won the domestic treble[a] in the previous season, their opponents were the Super League runners-up, Terengganu.
Johor Darul Ta'zim defended the trophy they won in 2022, beating Terengganu 2–0 with both goals scored by Juan Muñiz and Bérgson.[2][3] That match was also the first game in the league for both teams.[4]
Johor Darul Ta'zim (JDT) qualified for the 2023 Piala Sumbangsih as winners of the 2022 Malaysia Super League.[5] Previously, they won the 2022 Malaysia FA Cup against the same opponent,[6][7] and later they faced Selangor in the 2022 Malaysia Cup final, on course to complete a continental treble.[8] JDT defeated Selangor 2–1 to win their third Malaysia Cup and as a result, Terengganu qualified for the 2023 Charity Shield as Super League runners-up.[9][10]
Terengganu were looking to win the Charity Shield for the first time since 2001, when they beat Perak 4–0. Their last appearance was in 2002, when they were defeated by Selangor 2–1.[11]
