Five games were played yesterday with the exception of SPA v Kuantan who scheduled to play today since Stadium UiTM was used by UiTM FC to play against T-Team. The best match would be the Penang convincing victory over Sabah by a margin of 4-0.
T-Team suffered a blow to their promotion chances when they only managed to draw 2-2 against UiTM. Sadriddin Abdullaev scored both goals for the Titans yet not enough to gain a crucial three points as they gave clear advantage to Penang to level on point.
The Panther saw the chance and took it with style. The home side proved to strong for Sabah as goals from Elias Sulaiman, Faiz Subri and a brace from Azinee Taib condemned The Rhinos to seven games without a win. This mean Penang are currently in second place, levelled on point with T-Team with only one goal difference.
While the league leaders Kedah suffered a 2-0 defeat to NS Matrix at Paroi. Goals from Forkey Doe and N. Thanabalan ensured The Red Hawk to their only second defeat of the season since March. Regardless of the result, they remain top of the table with only three points separated from Penang and T-Team.
The struggling Kuala Lumpur beaten 2-1 to JDTII and might be in danger if Kuantan managed to win against SPA. The only way to save themselves from relegation is to win the final two games, also involving relegation rival, Kuantan.
