Fancied NPNG-Emkay win league and FA Cup Posted: 14 Jul 2011 03:17 AM PDT NPNG-EMKAY FC have confirmed their stranglehold on the Football Association of Selangor (FAS) league. Having already been declared as Super League champions even with two matches in hand, NPNG-Emkay went on a grand double by winning the FA Cup after defeating Subang Jaya Municipal Council (MPSJ) 2-0 in the final at the Petaling Jaya Stadium in Kelana Jaya recently. The win certainly redeemed their battered pride. Last season, NPNG-Emkay FC were the favourites but failed to win any honours. Their coach Michael Palani said they were happy to have regained their lost glory. "The players gave their best throughout the season. They were determined to bring honours to the club. The support from the management was also was good. "The players have been rewarded with a holiday in Bali. We are thankful to the management for the support to the players,'' said Michael after the match. The final saw Michael fielding Azralan Azmi in the starting 11. Azralan, NPNG-Emkay FC's top scorer in the league, was nursing an injury but Michael said his striker was prepared to start the match. And Azralan's presence was inspiring to his teammates. NPNG-Emkay FC dominated the game and scored in the 20th minute. R. Arumugam was at the right place to score past MPSJ goalkeeper Mohd Firdaus Razali. Seven minutes later Zulkifli Chek Din scored to make it 2-0 for NPNG-Emkay FC. After the breather, MPSJ dominated the match but were unable to get the goals. In fact they had several openings but were denied by the woodwork and the brilliant efforts of goalkeeper Mohd Zaidi Razlee. NPNG-Emkay FC, with the comfortable lead, were contented to play safe and defended well. Michael said for them winning the double — league and FA Cup — was the target. "We had a miserable season last year. Despite having some established players, we did not fare as expected. It was a blow to our pride as we had a strong tradition in the FAS League. "We had to drop some of the seniors from the squad. Youngsters, from our junior development programme, were promoted and they adapted well,'' said Michael. However, Michael does not want his charges to take it easy and would continue their training programmes. "The season may have ended but we have to be on our toes for the new season. We will train as usual. We are eager and determined to maintain our supremacy in the FAS League,'' added Michael. Full Feed Generated by Get Full RSS, sponsored by USA Best Price. |
