FELDA UNITED TAMED JDTII





MALAYSIA CUP: FELDA UNITED 3 - JDTII 2

After a goalless against Lions in Singapore last week, Felda United returned to their home ground to entertain JDTII. Felda started the match comfortably while JDTII struggled to get use on the unfamiliar pitch. The Fighters did not take long to take advantage over the unsettled visitors. Ahmad Syamin cleverly scored from a rebound after ten minutes into the game.


Spurred on by the early goal, Felda continued to surge forward for more goals. Edward Wilson showed why he is one of the most prolific goal scorers in Super League when he scored their second in the 30th minute. The fighters were in complete control until the break.


However, it was a little different story early in the second half. Zaquan Adha pulled back with a goal just four minutes after the restart. Felda United's defenders were caught napping again in the 54th minute when Syafiq Shahruddin grabbed the equalizer for JDTII. Irfan Bakti was furious with his team for losing their focus.

The Fighters got their objective right again. Sharulnizam Mustafa brilliantly scored the winner for Felda United in the 65th minute. The home side held on until the final whistle. It is a valuable victory for Felda and a second straight loss for JDT II.
