JDT crush Sarawak Utd 4-0 for their 10th win

KUALA LUMPUR: Johor Darul Ta'zim (JDT) recorded their 10th Super League win of the season, thrashing Sarawak United 4-0 at the State Stadium in Kuching today.

On target for the league champions were Ahmad Hazwan Bakri (13th minute), Bergson Da Silva (20th), Syahmi Safari (79th) and Fernando Forestieri (90th, penalty).

The win saw the Southern Tigers open up a four-point lead over second-placed Sabah.

At the Darulmakmur Stadium, Sri Pahang beat Selangor 2-0 to end their five-match winless run. The Elephants' goals came from Steve Rodriguez (35th) and Malik Mat Arif (40th).

Pahang's victory piled more pressure on Selangor's German coach Michael Feichtenbeiner, who is said to be facing a fight to keep his job, as the Red Giants recorded their fourth defeat of the season.

Meanwhile KL's on-loan striker Jordan Mintah finally broke his duck since his move from Terengganu, scoring twice in their 2-1 win over Kedah at the KLFA Stadium.

In the pulsating match, the Canaries seized the lead through Aiman Afif Md Afizul in the 42nd minute.

But the City Boys equalised through Mintah's 56th penalty kick, and he completed their turnaround with a close-range header in the 72nd minute.

At the Tuanku Abdul Rahman Stadium, hosts Negri Sembilan edged Terengganu 2-1.

The Deer took the lead through Yashir Pinto (18th minute) but Kipre Tchetche equalised for the Turtles two minutes later. However, Gustavo Dos Santos ensured full points for Negri with his 52nd minute strike.

RESULTS:

SRI PAHANG 2 SELANGOR 0; SARAWAK UTD 0 JDT 4; KL CITY 2 KEDAH 1; N. SEMBILAN 2 TERENGGANU 1
