SINGAPORE: Selangor FC’s Katsuhito Kinoshi may be leading his team into the Asean Club Championship Shopee Cup for the first time, but the Japanese coach already appreciates the lure of South-East Asia’s premier club competition after only one game in its second edition.

Kinoshi’s Malaysian Super League side pushed Shopee Cup title holders Buriram United FC all the way in their opening Group A clash at the Thunder Castle last month, before the teams shared the points in a 1-1 draw.
