SELANGOR, NS QUALIFY FOR DIVISION TWO FINAL




Selangor qualified for the final of the Division Two for the Tun Razak Cup when they defeated Kedah at the MPMBB Stadium in Bukit Serindit.

And they will be up against Negeri Sembilan who edged Perlis 3-2 in the other semi final.

Mohd Redza Maadun opened scoring for Selangor in the 4th minute and he doubled their lead in the 43rd minute.


Kedah pulled a goal back in the 55th minute through Mohd Zakaria Kamaruzaman but a potential fightback was snuffed when Faridzul Afiq Mohamad scored the third goal in the 68th minute to take Selangor into the final.

Perlis went ahead in the 8th minute when Mohd Izzat Ghazali converted a penalty corner. But Negeri were on level terms in the 17th minute when M. Rageshwaran  scored.

It was Perlis that went 2-1 ahead in the 46th minute, again through a penalty corner when Mohamad Najmi Farizal Jazlan.

But Negri hit a purple match midway through the second half as they scored two goals within two minutes.

First it was Ganeisha Tamil Chelvam who drew Negeri level when he scored from a penalty corner in the 54th minute. And hardly had the cheers settled down when Azraie Mohd Azizan scored. And NS held on to make it to the final.
