Salam Takziah, Ibrahim Mydin (1944–2023)
Malaysia kehilangan seorang legenda bola sepak hari ini. Allahyarham Ibrahim Mydin baru sahaja menghembus nafas terakhir beliau tengah hari tadi. Legasi Lagenda ingin mengucapkan salam takziah kepada keluarga Allahyarham.
Allahyarham merupakan seorang pemain bola sepak yang sangat pintar di atas padang dengan hantaran baik kepada rakan sepasukan untuk mendapatkan gol. Beliau sendiri juga banyak menjaringkan gol. Rakan-rakan yang bermain dengan beliau seperti Rahim Abdullah, Dato’ Shukor Salleh, Soo-Toh Kim Poh, Dato’ N. Thanabalan, dan Dato’ M. Karathu mengakui kehebatan Allahyarham sebagai seorang pemain tengah yang bijak berfikir.
Allahyarham Ibrahim Mydin senang diajak berbual dan telah banyak berkongsi pengalaman pahit manis yang beliau lalui sebagai pemain bola sepak. Beliau yang berasal daripada keluarga yang serba kekurangan telah membuktikan ia tidak menghalang beliau untuk menjadi seorang insan yang berjaya. Kerja keras dari waktu kecil lagi telah membawa beliau untuk bermain untuk negara di kejohanan-kejohanan besar seperti Pestabola Merdeka, Sukan Asia, Piala Raja Thai dan Kejohanan Ulang Tahun Jakarta.
Beliau juga pernah diangkat sebagai kapten Harimau Malaya dan banyak membantu jurulatih dalam memberi idea untuk mencorak cara permainan dalam perlawanan.
Marilah kita doakan agar roh Allahyarham dicucuri rahmat Allah SWT dan ditempatkan bersama orang yang beriman. Kita doakan juga keluarga Allahyarham tabah dan sabar mengharungi kehilangan insan yang disayangi.

Malaysia has lost a national football legend today. The late Ibrahim Mydin took his last breath earlier this afternoon. Legasi Lagenda would like to extend our heartfelt condolences to his family.
Ibrahim Mydin was a brilliant mind on the field, sending good passes to his teammates to score goals. He also scored a lot of goals himself. Many of his friends who played with him such as Rahim Abdullah, Dato’ Shukor Salleh, Soo-Toh Kim Poh, Dato’ N. Thanabalan, and Dato’ M. Karathu acknowledged his greatness as a skilled midfielder.
Ibrahim Mydin was very easy to talk to and he was very generous in sharing many of his bittersweet experiences he went through as a football player. Coming from a poor family, he had proven that it did not stop him from becoming a successful person. Hard work from a young age has led him to play for the country in major tournaments such as the Merdeka Tournament, Asian Games, Thai King’s Cup and Jakarta Anniversary Tournament.
He was also appointed as Harimau Malaya captain, where he helped the team’s coach by giving ideas on pattern of play.
Let us all pray that his soul is showered with Allah SWT’s blessings and for him to be placed among the believers. We also pray for his family to stay strong as they face the loss of their loved one.
