FA CUP 1ST ROUND PAHANG 2 V PERAK 2 AET..5-4 ON PENALTIES

Last night we scraped through a tricky encounter away at Perak in the 1st round of the FA Cup to set up a 2nd Round tie against Lions XII from SIngapore in February. The game finished 2-2 after extra time and needed a penalty shoot out to decide the outcome. We came through 5-4 on Penalties to progress, I was pleased to convert my spot kick. It was not the best game we have played but sometimes in football, especially away from home you need to grind out victories. We showed good character to level the scoring and to hold our nerve in the shoot out. To watch the brief highlights visit the following link:
