Lions XII crowned champions of Malaysia Super League 2013

Lions XII celebrates their first ever MSL 2013 title
By thrashing the hapless Felda United, the Singaporean side clinched the league title for the first time ever since the inception of 2004 and since departing from Malaysian football 20 years ago. 

An OWN GOAL by Azrul Ahmad and goals from Shahril Ishak,  Fazrul Nawaz and Shafiq Ghani sealed the title while Felda United were on the brink of relegation with one game remaining.



Man of the Match: Shahril Ishak

Next game will be the final league match of the season before heading to the fasting month, with the newly crowned champions Lions XII will travel to Kota Bharu to contest the highly anticipated clash with the FA Cup winner Kelantan FA whilst Felda United at home need a win against the already relegated Negeri Sembilan in order to stay in the top-flight but still need a bit of luck from Terengganu FA, hoping they will beat T-Team with only two points separate between them. 

All final matches will kick-off on Saturday, July 6.

Kelantan won the FA Cup 2013 title

Kelantan retain FA Cup title
A golden assist from Piya to find Nor Farhan Mohd who slotted the ball beautifully into the back of the net to make it 1-0 and it was enough for The Red Warriors to capture the FA Cup title for the second consecutive times after a long hard-fought battle against mega-rich side, Johor DT. 

Kelantan met two of their former players, Norshahrul Idlan Talaha and Nurul Azwan Roya who previously won the FA Cup title together last season.

But the one of the most talked about during the game was three quick changes from the Southern Tiger when the match were just inside 45 minutes.


Man of the Match: Piya

What's more, Johor DT striker Norshahrul Idlan Talaha, who best known as Matyo, allegedly thrown his runner-up medal into the dustbin, locked himself in the dressing room and refused any interviews from the media. 

Johor DT players were promised earlier by Tengku Mahkota Johor before the FA Cup final clash that they will have Audi Q7 each if they win the cup both as bonus and motivation for the team. It results in failure though.
