Defending champs Sabah not giving up so easily


KANGAR: Sabah football team coach Burhan Ajui conceded that his side lacks experience but promised they will show heart when taking on hosts Perlis at the Malaysia Games (Sukma) opener at the UiTM Stadium on Saturday.

Sabah will only have four players from the 2012 gold medal winning squad in Kuantan – midfielders Ummareng Bacok and Maxsius Musa, and goalkeepers Endre S. Taipay and Rendy Rening.
