National team[]
On international stage, Azizon earned his first cap against Hong Kong on 13 October 2004 in 2006 FIFA World Cup qualification (AFC). He also was part of the squad in the 2004 Tiger Cup as backup to Mohd Syamsuri Mustafa.
During 2007 AFC Asian Cup, the absence of Syamsuri due to injury has given Azizon the chance to take his place as the first choice goalkeeper. However disaster occurs during the tournament as Azizon conceded 12 goals in three matches as Malaysia lost in all their group games.
After the dismal performance at the Asian Cup, Azizon was not included into the Malaysia squad again for seven years, until he was recalled into the Malaysia starting line-up on 14 September 2014 by Dollah Salleh for the friendly match against Indonesia.[2] He played in the match as a starter, which ends in a 2–0 loss to Malaysia[3] This was the final appearance of Azizon for the national team.
