KUANTAN: The Pahang Football Association (PFA) have been accused of discrimination after allowing only Pahang-born fans to purchase tickets for the Malaysia Cup final at the Darul Makmur Stadium on Wednesday.

Although all the 11,000 tickets, priced at RM40 each, were snapped up in three hours, it was the FA’s ruling on the ticket eligibility that irked the fans, including some who had come from afar and queued up since 8am.
