KUALA LUMPUR: High-riding Politeknik Malaysia have been brought down to earth by Olak Tigers in the Malaysian Junior Hockey League (MJHL).

Politeknik, who stunned last year's runners-up Universiti Kuala Lumpur (UniKL) 1-0 last week, were hoping for full points in their Division One match against Olak. Instead, they suffered an embarrassing 3-2 loss – despite taking a 2-1 lead – at the Tun Razak Stadium in Jalan Duta on Wednesday.
