Own goal: It was a big win for the KL City Football Club when it clinched the Malaysia Cup for the first time in 32 years. Unfortunately, not so for our leaders who granted the Federal Territories a public holiday for the victory.
FIRSTLY, let me extend my congratulations to the KL City Football Club for winning the Malaysia Cup for the first time in 32 years. It’s an outstanding achievement, no question about it.
A celebration is certainly in order! Well done! Congratulations! Bravo! Because we are the champions, we are the champions!
