Selangor FC earned three crucial points yesterday after defeating Sabah FC 1- 0 at the MBPJ Stadium in Kelana Jaya in the 2023 Super League match.

Tan Cheng Hoe, the head coach of Selangor FC, lauded his team's performance against Sabah FC yesterday.

"First and foremost, I want to praise the players for fighting with passion until the end. We know Sabah is a powerful defensive and offensive squad, and the match yesterday was not easy. What matters is that we obtain these three points."

"Overall, we still have a lot of work to do. We still have eight games to play. We need to score as many points as possible, thus the team must be concentrated and confident. Most essential, the squad must maintain focus and be able to handle ball possession in a more organised manner in the future," Tan Cheng Hoe said.

From yesterday's #SELSAB match, some important things can be seen, such as:

The advantage of Ayron Del Valle contributes to the attacking plan

Ayron Del Valle's single score in the 23rd mini yesterday earned him the title of Man of the Match (MOTM) in yesterday's encounter #SELSAB. All three attackers, Faisal Halim, Boakye-Yiadom, and Faisal Halim, scored in this match for the first time.

"The advantage that Ayron Del Valle has of playing in the number 9 position as well as on the wing in his old club somewhat helped the coaching staff to make a new combination in the attack," Tan Cheng Hoe remarked. On the right is Ayron Del Valle, in the middle is Boakye-Yiadom, and on the left is Faisal Halim. I hope they can get along and play together in the near future." in a press conference yesterday.

Noor Al-Rawabdeh is in charge of the team's midfield

This Jordan-born player's style of play is believed to be so strong at controlling the middle of the field. He is one of the guys that is highly active in every assault, and yesterday he broke the opposition team's attack.

Brilliant action by the defensive line and the goalkeeper

Once again, the Red Giants team kept a clean sheet in the Super League in 2023. Throughout the 90 minutes of the match, the Red Giants goalkeeper, Samuel Somerville, performed brilliantly in preventing goals from being conceded. The defensive line, Safuwan Baharudin, Sharul Nazeem, Yazan Al-Arab, Quentin Cheng, Khuzaimi Piee, and Fazly Mazlan have also performed well to break the attacks from the opposing team.

Tan Cheng Hoe shared his views on Safuwan Baharudin, "We know the quality that Safuwan has, he is very composed and can play in various positions. He performed brilliantly in his first two matches with the team this season. I hope he will continue to perform confidently and maintain good momentum in the future," after being asked questions about the player in a press conference.

The management is happy with the fighting spirit displayed by the players. There is still a lot that can be improved to come out stronger in the upcoming matches. Keep the winning momentum going Red Giants!

Selangor FC would also like to thank the fans who came to fill the space at the MBPJ Stadium in Kelana Jaya yesterday to support the team.
