Kelantan’s Long Title Drought Continues After Shoot-out Loss

Selangor beat Kelantan 4-1 in the penalty shoot-out

Selangor lifted the FA Cup for a record fifth time when they defeated Kelantan 4-1 in a penalty shoot-out after both teams failed to break the 1-1 deadlock in extra-time at the National Stadium in Bukit Jalil last night.

The real drama of the match, which ended 0-0 in full-time, only kicked in during extra-time.

Mohd Norfarhan Mohd put Kelan­tan, looking for their first trophy in 88 years, ahead in the 93rd minute but skipper Mohd Amri Yahyah equalised for Selangor in the 101st minute.

The drama continued into the penalty shoot-out. And there was heartbreak for Kelantan when Indra Puta Mahayuddin’s first kick hit the post and Zairul Fitree Ishak ballooned his team’s third kick. Only Ahmad Ezrie Shafizie scored for Kelantan.

Selangor netted all four attempts through Khairul Anuar Baharum, Masriq Baharom, D. Surendran and Mohd Safee Sali.

Kelantan: Shahrizan Ismail, Mohd Farisham Ismail, Mohd Norfarhan Mohd (Wan Zaman Wan Mustapha), Ahmad Ezrie Shafizie, Mohd Badri Radzi, Mohd Rizal Fahmi (Che Hishamuddin Hassan), Sharudy Aziz, Indra Putra Mahayuddin, Zairul Fitree Ishak, Mohd Khalid Jamlus, Mohd Zamri Ramli (Mohd Hanif Mohd Nor).

Selangor: Mohd Hamsani Ahmad, Mohd Razman Roslan (Asraruddin Putra Omar), Mohd Khairul Anuar Baharum, Mohd Nasriq Baharom, Rudie Ramli, Mohd Safee Sali, Mohd Hardi Jaafar, Mohd Amri Yahyah, D. Surendran, R. Surendran (Mohd Amirulhadi Zainal), C. Premnath.
