SELANGOR CRASHED-OUT OF 2013 MALAYSIA CUP



MALAYSIA CUP: ATM 1 - SELANGOR 1

ATM sent Selangor out of the Malaysia Cup after a 1-1 draw tonight at the MPS Stadium.  The Gladiators dominated the match from start until Marlon Alex James scored the opener in the 37th minutes. It was a good play by S.Thinagaran who found Marlon in the penalty box.

The Red Giants arrived in Selayang with a mission to win reacted with more attacking plays. Amri Yahyah was everywhere on the pitch, trying to inspire his team mates. Though, ATM defended so well to take the lead into the break.   

Selangor came back in the second half with more determination. ATM couldn't play their normal game as Selangor was pushing everything forward. Their hard work paid-off in the 73rd minutes when Forkey Doe cross found Mohd Fittri Syazwan to head in for the equalizer.


The Red Giants keep on pressuring ATM defense, but B.Sathianatan's men held on until the final whitle. The draw sent ATM to the top of Group A, while Selangor heads for the exit.
