FAM Cup League debutants Sungai Ara FC threw a spanner into Kuantan FA League’s leadership when they held the on-song Pahang outfit to a goalless draw at the Universiti Sains Malaysia Stadium in Penang.

On a night when Kuantan looked the better side with their offensive play, the Penang clubside displayed their defensive mettle to keep the visitors at bay in the entire second half.
