BATU KAWAN: Russian Torpedo Viatcheslav Melnikov lived up to his reputation yesterday as he led Penang to a convincing 3-2 win over Kedah in a Super League match at the State Stadium here last night.
It was Kedah who drew first blood when Argentine playmaker Leonardo Veron struck in the 23rd minute but Melnikov, who had been a subdued figure in Penang’s 2-1 defeat by Perlis last week, scored his first goal of the season in the 34th minute and Australian midfielder Boris Ovcin delivered his second of the season in the 39th minute.
