Round 8

Round 8 of the Malaysian Super League. Nine goals scored in 2 games, three goal-less draw and one game postponed.

Johor Darul Takzim and Felda United was a very cagey affair. I did view this game at the Stadium MBPJ. All I can say is that Felda United especially Mohammed Ghaddar felt robbed of all three points after a poor refereeing decision which benefited and save the Johor goalkeeper Zamir Selamat blushes. Abas Saad who was sitting in front of me even said it was a goal! Goalkeeper caught the ball, kicked it out, Ghaddar stood out a foot and the ball went in and the officials disallowed a legitimate goal.

I will try to find video that can illustrate what I saw.

The two games Terengganu vs ATM 3-2 last minute goal. Ashaari Shamsuddin announce his come-back after a poor 2012 with the all important goal to win it for the turtles. ATM may see this as a miss opportunity to increase the gap at the top.

Pahang vs Kelantan with the enjoyment of Dez Corkhill's commentating in English. This East Coast game was lovely indeed a 2-2 all draw in the end. Drama all-round with a red card, penalty, close calls and etc. 30 shots was taken during the game. Pahang will feel a draw is a fair result. While The Red Warriors felted robbed of three points with the late penalty. The Red Warriors fans said better a point than none at all. Couldn't agree more.
