ICG FOOTBALL: KSKUOB 7 - UBRC 1
Malaysia's club KSKUOB delivered a sweet revenge after a 7-1 win over Singapore's UBRC in the annual Inter Club Games at Hang Jebat Stadium in Melaka last Saturday. The Singapore side won 1-0 in a controversial match at Hang Tuah Stadium last year.
KSKUOB manager, Ariffin Ideris named an experience squad this year with four players from Pulau Pinang and Kedah. Faisol Bidin was called back from retirement to strenghten the defence and inspire the team.
KSKUOB didn't take long to open the scoring in the second minute from Mohd Ayub. All time legend, Ben Sritharan displayed a gallant performance commanding the centre of the field. KSKUOB added another 2 goals before conceding a penalty to lead 3-1 at half time.
The Malaysian side did not look like holding back despite the comfortable lead. Ariffin sent in another senior player, Azimin Hardi for the second half. UBRC goalkeeper, Pratto was well beaten by the Malaysian strikers. KSKUOB cruised to score four more goals.
Ariffin finally reclaimed the pride with Mohd Ayub scoring a total of four goals in the match. The victory is one of the biggest win in the ICG football history.
