Selangor FC took home three points from Tuanku Abdul Rahman Stadium, Paroi in the 20th Super League match after winning 4-0 against Negeri Sembilan FC last night.

Head Coach of Selangor FC, Tan Cheng Hoe, praised the performance shown by the Selangor FC players as he considered yesterday's match as not an easy match.

"I don't think this is an easy match for us, in fact, it was quite hard because the players must always be ready with their counterattack from the first minute to the end of the match. We know that that is the strength of Negeri Sembilan FC and every attempt they made yesterday was quite dangerous.

"However, yesterday was the best performance from every player on the field. Before the goal, to be honest, we were a bit nervous because we almost conceded a goal but the Selangor FC players managed the situation well bouncing back in the second half with an improved performance and brought home three important points that will help the team to continue to be in the best position in the league," stressed Tan Cheng Hoe.
